Lankhoss' C6 Z06 (501 RWHP) Vs. '07 GT500 (2.8KB @ 640 RWHP) *Video*

The funny thing is that the efficiency of the GT500 set-up.... There is one thing to do X horsepower at the dyno and then see the GT500 in a real life senario.

Also I will bet anything that Lankhoss car will come 150lbs short if we put the 2 cars in a scale...

Rafa.

I am sure it will be more than 150lbs. Knowing that the GT500 weighs in at like 3825lbs. Lankhoss vette is nice though, when I get my new car maybe we can run.

Thanks guys,

That GT500 was probably closer to 4,000 lbs with those 20" wheels. They're 3850 or 3920 depending on the options (stereo setup, etc).

I think he was making ~640 on the street dyno that night - considering how Brad and Thrust seemed to be pretty even with Thrust's ~605 RWHP and the '03/'04 weighs 3665 lbs. That's a pretty significant difference in weight - takes a lot of HP to still hang with that ~335 lbs extra.

Tim does tune so the ECU starts pulling timing a bit sooner than a lot of other tuners, I believe it's 130* F for Tim and usually 150* for most others, including mine.

I think Brad weighed in at 3110 on the scale at Reynolds - the catted X-pipe and headers saved some weight - forget what fuel load that was with.

There you have it.... the extra HP of the GT500 didn't help, but the efficiency of the raw N/A power over power the FI set-up.

501whp / 3110Lbs = 0.161 ratio

Vs.

640whp / 4000Lbs = 0.16 ratio

I think the GT500 had to be over 4000 or Lankhoss car is lighter.

It dosn't matter,the Rustang still lost,even with 150+ more rwhp!!
