|  G8 GT vs Bolt on 01 z28
Not long races, but fun nonetheless. We did two runs from about 20-90. They were both basically the same, we would both hit it and I would slide sideways a little and he would be out on me by about a half car(street tires). As soon as I had traction, I would catch him at about 60, and by 90-95, I was maybe two cars on him, its hard to tell. He was an ok dude. We exchanged the pleasentries and went on our ways. I had fun, that shit was quick though no doubt.

Nice kill, I'm really liking those G8's though. Saw one at the auto show for the first time. Might be my next DD.

Nice kill. Sounds about right to me. My brother's got one and it ran 13.52 @ 102 bone stock with like 600 miles on it. His weighed in at 3,990 without him in it, so they're definitely not slow for a four door sedan. I can't wait to see the GXPs.

also thats a pretty good time for a four door sedan, give its bone stock, add some exhaust and a tune and its most likely a high 12's car.

LOL some guy on the GTO forum was trying to convince everyone that his G8 put down 390 rwhp with headers and a tune.

It was quick, it just made me feel good to pull away from him like that not once but twice. I've been wondering how quick my car is. I was proud of it.

It should also handle well. The 19s look sharp as well.

Nice run, was he stock? Considering he got the jump due to your spinning yet caught and passed him, sounds like he was stock.

Very nice! Sounds like the race I had with my buddy in his mild bolt-on Z28. Couple dig races and I'd pull out hard and then he'd blow past me up top.

I actually looked at a black 04 5 speed b4 I got this one. I bet that thing is quick. if I was gonna get a mustang though, I would want an 04 cobra. I might get when im done with my associates.
