Short ben is a fantastic driver, he was really whipping that camaro. I would have liked to see rally when it wasn’t wet and muddy, it would have been more legit but man that camaro should be easily pushing 450 to the wheels. Speaking from first hand experience those new edge mustangs are extremely slow and expensive to mod, 2v 4.6 puts no power down. Very surprised they went with one instead of an LS.

The rally event was really pointless. The times were so insanely long that IMHO there’s wasn’t really a winner because it wasn’t even really a contest. They should go at it again when dry to determine the real winner of the overall competition.

[@jamfd3s788]

the 4.6 2v is defiently not expensive to mod, yes it makes less hp then the ls no debate but you can get a turbo kit just as cheap for the 4.6 as you can for the ls1 and they can make good power for cheap and parts are dummy cheap too in general, also that GT has a way better rear end than the camaro it just all came down to how they spent the budgets.

[@frankartale1026]

Something was wrong with that Z28. It got through the 1/4 in 3rd gear ? Those 6spd cars have 3.42's . They also ran mid 13's. What did the turbo do ? Those are stock motor times. They should have used better tires

[@FWDSUXARSE]

Yeah I'm kinda baffled. Mine stock with nothing more than sticky tires ran a 12.9 in the 1/4 on my third attempt once I figured out how to launch it well. The LS stock produces anywhere from 285 to 310 at the rear wheels depending on year. This car should have been pushing at least 360-380 at the rear wheels conservatively in my opinion. And you are right tires make a hell of a difference. I don't know what the width of those C6 wheels they have are but I upgraded to 17x9 snowflake replica wheels specifically made for the 4th Gen fbody. First thing I ever did with mine is all the maintenance items on the car including replacing diff fluid and also replaced the tires.
