Default Re: Got flogged by a ssv vf with less kw? Why?

What times did you guys run and at what mph?
Mph is a real good indication of true power.
472 rwhp with a cam and heads is fairly up there power wise for a 6.2 litre.

I thought I was one the wrong forum when I read this thread.

It's a shame the E and T word have to show up in every thread though.

I can only think it must have been the humidity that night effecting my supercharger and not effecting his n/a the same way. But any how I have gone from having angry frustration and complete disappointment feeling like selling up, to being the proudest fpv owner on the planet. I am happy to report the GT ate that 2017 ls3 ssv...whooped its asss wahoooo lol.
This time your car was obviously running properly, since you beat him convincingly several times on the night.

I bet your Commodore mate is not saying Holdens rule anymore.....lol.
