Last night around around 10:30 at the beginning of I-275 near I-75. The car was a black Z28 on C5 Z06 wheels, sounded pretty mean, i figured i might have a chance since it was an LT1....

From a 70ish roll he walked out on my about 3/4 of a car, i stopped him pull around 110ish and was maybe starting to come back but there was a car in my lane, oh well.

If you are on here nice car and good run!

That was me you raced, its moves ok for having 134k miles and auto tranny.
That was my first race in forever it seems.

Your car looks sweet. You have any mods on the Z?

Thanks!

Basically just I/H/E, untuned.

What about you?

why do you have to be tuned after an intake, headers and exhaust?

Doesnt need to be per se, its just that the Nissans run pretty rich up top with a very conservative timing curve from the factory.

Intake, exhaust and pulleys for me.

Like I said earlier good race, wish we could have gone from a stop or low speed roll.

good death in the Zthat sucks... lt1s never have to be tuned because either way they are slow and they are going to break :lol:

You guys are harsh :(

But yes, tuning on a Z can unleash a lot of power, from the factory they are tuned to run on poopy 91 octane and conservative ignition timing.

Maxpowers: your LT1 is quite powerful, ive killed many LT1's in the past, i am shocked that with such light mods you beat me.

Does your lightly modded involve a small shot on nitrous?

Just race him 5-6 consecutive times and there's a good chance he will break something.

Ive killed most LT1's I have raced also, so I could see how you would be suprised. Ive got a freak for the mods I have. A few years ago I raced a LS1 WS6 on the highway from about the same speed we raced from till well over 100 I got the jump but he didn't pass me.
