I mean comon guys this is really getting outta hand. It's a Ws6 for christ sakes that is by no means and easy kill dig or roll for a lot of cars let alone any near stock or modded cobalt. Matter of fact I posted video's back when I first got to this site of me racing a full bolt on tuned rsx and during one of the roll races our friend in a ls1, z28 with a lid almost blew past us while in the middle of one of our races. You can see that he had to keep hitting his breaks as not to run into us since it was only a two lane road. AND he has an auto. Guy wasn't even trying. I know I'll embarrass any intake, exhaust cobalt or redline from a roll and I still can't keep up with his car after 100 from a 40 punch. And he's freakin auto.

and my buddy has a ls1 TA and we missed around and he was behind me and i seen that he was swing to the other lane to come around me so i threw it into second and he stayed on the rear of my door to 120mph and he couldnt pass from 40 to 120mph. he is stock and
i have k-n fitler and 2 1/2 in exhaust to flowmaster.far as lt1 raced 94 lt1 formula he was in front of me and he nailed it and i reeled him in and passed him and at the next light he asked me " what the hell is in that thing" i laughed and said "sc banger" he was smiling more then i was. he had flowmaster and moroso cai. so good kill this cars are very underated by everyone so keep up the good work

i think you guys are also forgeting that his clutch was slipping. AND NOT EVERY LS1 IS IN GOOD RUNNING SHAPE. this car could have been ragged out, or he could have hit the rev limiter, or he could have missed a gear. Theres a lot to think about here. Like i said before, not everyone knows how to drive. And not every ls1 is a monster. And believe me i now that ls1 are beasts, i raced my buddy in his 04 gto (which is heavier than the TA) and he beats me by 2 cars. I know how fast these cars are, and that 9 out of 10 times i am going to get beat by one. I just got lucky and beat one, and wanted to tell everyone.

They think that every V8 runs the same and that everyone driving them is a good driver. I noticed on this site that if anyone says anything about beating a V8, its automatically BS. Not all V8's are monsters guys.........

But, I understand what you are saying, LS1 WS6 will kill CSS from a dig or a roll race.
To recap...
RWD > FWD for drag racing
LS1 F-Body will kill CSS from a dig or a roll race
BTW, the 0 - 60 mph time for LS1 F-Body is ~5.0 seconds.

Did anyone else notice that he claimed to be one in which the guy claimed he had 375 HP?
Then he said that maybe it wasn't it good running order? And he said his car started to missfire? Hmm..
FWIW, an LS1 M6 will get 30+ on the highway so any ricer who wants to pull the MPG is even more of an idiot.

Unless the car was running on 7 cylinders theres no way you dont have the power to do it im sorry. Lets just do a little math here 9.3 X 1.57 a standard for a 1/8th mile to 1/4 mile conversion that puts you at a 14.6 just go to ls1tech.com and look at the stock 1/4 mile times almost everyone has you by a full second. Also for your info if you have ever been for a ride in a ls1 powered car you should know that 70 to 80 is a sweet spot and it pulls very hard.

My 2002 Camaro SS will do 80-100mph before you can say watch this.
LS1's are all around performers from a dig or a roll they are super fast. They pull hard as hell all the way to redline.
The whole dead from a dig or slow from a roll BS is pure fiction.
