FD vs C5 Vette Rematch
C5 now has intake, removed mufflers, and ported TB. I have same mods, bad ignition breakup (still waiting on twin power to get here 
). Enjoy

That was some closely-matched racing!
I liked the big flames on the final shift, then we see that the dotted white line is now a solid blur and the Chast White slowly pulls ahead...
Thanks for the vid!

Now now, I listened very closely and they both punched it at exactly the same time from what I can tell. His exaust is so loud though that you can't even hear that LS1 screaming away, lol
If anything I think the FD punched it a bit late on the first race, and the 2nd was dead on but he was in a sweet spot perhaps. The FD is clearly the quicker of the 2 cars in this matchup.
Nice vid, thanks!

hmm....interesting. My stock port motor that had a 6 and 5 compression with all bolt ons @ 13 psi smoked a C5 with intake and exhaust. I was running like that with a z06. You have an ecu running 15 psi...you should have worked him!
What do u run in the 1/4?

I dunno, it looks like that ignition breakup is really really bad. In the second run, look at the exhaust after the car pops a mini-flame on that shift. You can see flames licking out of the exhaust under WOT in the higher RPMs. That can make a serious difference in performance.

That is what I was thinking. I can hang with a stock c5 at stock boost!

i have the same mods as you and dont even bother lining up with basically stock vettes anymore....i walk them pretty good. Get a tune and you will too.

Are you sure it was 10:1 and not 11:1?
