The 1st race I spun bad! He put an easy 4-5 on me. 2nd race I spun bad, but not as bad and he didn't spin at all. By the time I let out he had 3-4 cars on me.

From the 40 roll I got him by 1-2 pretty easily.

Driver mod, is what it sounds like. I spun racing a friends g37x, but caught up by 80 mph. When I went to atco things were much different. No spinning, took him from the 60' and put many lengths on him. A good example of how spinning kills races.

Do the fuse pull. If you hadn't done it since having 87 in it then I'm pretty it will be a much closer race.

This is OP's major problem. You need to get all that 87octane out of there and do a fuse pull. I guarantee it will be a world of difference. Happened to mine as well. Felt like a 2 ton 300HP car with 87 in there in low octane mode. I have seen post on here show a 20+RWHP difference from 93 octane and a fuse pull back to back same dyno. 2010 models seem to be the worst for this.

Best case scenario a stock Mach 1 is 13.2 car. With those mods without a tune or gear we'll call it a 13.0 car (this is very generous). Best case scenario a bone stock 2010 L99 is a 12.9 car.

Yes I know the fues pull is a mus. I wanted to run a couple tanks of 93 first to make sure the 87 was all gone before doing the fues pull. Should be taking place tonight. Headers should be here Thursday. So it won't be long before it moving like a Camaro should lol.

I'll make another post when I get home with videos of me racing my buddies 5.0 in the orange tanks and in my Formula.
