what do you have done? and yes a gto is going to pull harder as it gets into the higher gears.

And what year was it?

That sounds about right for a stock LS2 GTO. I race a friend of mine that had stage 2, 2.8, intake, exhaust and i pulled on him the whole time but i'm modded so stock that should be the outcome.
