Any videos of a stock V6 vs a V8 in a drag race?
Gave Youtube a quick search but couldn't find anything. I wanted to see visually how much farther the 8 pulls the 6 in the quarter mile.

When the v8 cross the 1/4 line the v6 will be approximately 200ft from it's back end, that should give you a visual....

Homeland Security would confiscate any such video in the interest of keeping the peace.

Cool. I'm surprised the V8 didn't take the 6 more off the line. At first I was like these are about even then the 8 took off. Pretty far gap when the guy filming finally turned the camera around but did the guy in the 6 already just give up and hit the brakes by then because that was a pretty large gap. Interesting... I was just curious. Post more vids if you got 'em as long as they are from a track!

I have some videos of Ruby vs V8's but I have a CAI intake & borla exhaust. Would that do?
Here is one: http://youtu.be/rp8UDCTjPoo

It's an exponential thing. Two more cylinders X the coefficient of ancient, cosmic Gods of internal combustion cold fusion, equals a good old fashioned ass-whooping on any given street. Sans mods, of course.
