Default turbo s2k vs tt iroc camaro and tt c5 vette

my mods are inline pro turbo kit, gt35r, full supporting mods, putting down 450whp at 15 psi

the first "race" was against the camaro. its a race a buddy has been trying to set up for awhile and it finally happened.

went from a 40mph roll in 2nd gear the first time. it was dead even from 40 mph till about 80 mph then he just pulled and pulled. i was only hitting 13 psi so we stopped at a gas station and i turned the boost up to the normal 15psi i run. same deal this time around. 40 mph roll in 2nd. this time with the extra boost i held him off till about 100 mph and then he just blew my doors off. it was great too because the car looked completely stock right down to the wheels and even the hood. he didn't know for sure but was claiming 650-700 whp. top was up for this one.

the next day i was bored and decided to just go for a cruise. saw some really bright hid's behind me so i slowed down to let him get up beside me and found out it was a sick looking c5 vette. both of our tops were down and his passenger motions for me to just let r' have it so i dropped a couple of gears and just took off. i pulled out about a car length ahead and before i could say holy s*&% he was a football field ahead of me! i was in pure amazement. we stopped at a gas station to chat for a little and found out it was a 427 powered twin turbo automatic. he was claiming 1100whp which by that display i saw a few moments earlier i have no reason to doubt. just an utterly amazing car. dude was really cool too, he even gave me props for trying. he also has a 996 turbo that he said should be a closer race for my car. hopefully i will be posting a win in the near future.

Those are awesome runs! Too bad you don't have a video camera mounted in your car.

there is video of the camaro race from the camaro. i just have to see if i can get a hold of the guy, because he is a friend of a friend that i don't see often.

on a side note, i got to check out the 996 turbo i will be running. looks completely factory but is claiming 480whp. he should beat me but it hopefully will be a lot closer than the other races.
