Ls1s are honestly cheating. Like seriously it's kind of a joke. I probably won't ever want to drive with you ever again if you have an Ls1 haha.
I did one run in 3rd, and was on rev limiter, so was like "hmm, I wonder if it'll do 4th". So next run I entered in 4th and the car was pumped, held 4th through the long first part of the turn, downshifted to 3rd to go around the cones, and while powering out in 3rd I thought, "I wonder if it'll handle an upshift to 4th?", so on the final transition I upshifted to 4th and powered through the last turn no problem. I was just laughing in my car.
It's an all the way stock Ls1 in a full-on street car. The same shit in a full-on racecar would be nuts.
Yesterday I lost tons of respect for drivers of v8 drift cars everywhere haha.
