Anyone see the what appears to be a '94 ZR-1 with gears only lose to a cammed '00 LS1 Camaro on YouTube? And it is from a roll?

Good video but a cammed LS1 appears to be no contest for a stock LT5 with gears from a roll.

Granted the Camaro has gears and a host of other mods looks like the LS is no slouch!

I am not sure if I wanna post that kind of video and risk getting banned! LOL

If you go to you tube and use these words as your search: c4 zr-1 corvette and filter for this month you should find the video.

I'll step out on a limb here, nobody better ban you if you post up a YouTube link.
Maybe 10 years ago the mood of this august organization wouldn't allow it, but It's my opinion that things have changed......


Post it up.

Maybe he should run a cammed LT-5. What do we know about the ZR?

I just watched the video, the Z sounds like he is shifting too soon. Perhaps one of them was a poor driver.

Seems to be stock except for gears.

If so then I wonder how any given 500hp package would compare in the same event?

I don't think it would matter. A 400hp car vs a LS with about 500hp is gonna lose every time.

I saw it too. Then I forgot about it because I went down a zr1 video rabbit hole.

His dyno #s...

With Longtubes and LS6 intake it put down 386whp and 365tq through a T56 and LS7 clutch. Ran out of injector at 6000rpm stock 853 heads

Karl you actually filmed this a LS1 Corvette w/cam, etc, pulled me off the line by a few car lengths and then I passed him at the end 12.1 @121.25

Yes I remember. I am looking forward to another trip to US41.

Odds are a 500hp Z would have outrun the LS in the video.

Agreed. I am happy where I am at in the hp rankings.

At the last 1/2 mile WANNAGOFAST event in Monee, IL I lined up with a yellow C5 with "VENGEANCE RACING" blazed across the sides.. I don't know the specifics, but assuming it was an LS1(??), it blew me out by at least 4 car lengths, from a dig.

Mine is a ~ 510+hp with stock cams and stock rear end. The C5 had a radical cam and open exhaust and arrived on a trailer for the event; hardly a streetable car, is my point.

No regrets! Just too bad Pete wasn't there with his nasty Green Machine, or the outcome would have been different, I suspect. (And, Pete would have arrived and driven home too...in traffic...no problem.)

Pete did 154 the last time he was at WGF. He was up there w C6 ZR1s.

Seems like the perfect moment for a 125hp shot of n2o.

If things were only as easy as they are in the movies!
