I dont see where everyone says the 5.0 is faster. I have race one with my stock Nismo 4 times. Won each race by about a 1 1/4 car length.

Was the other car booted? :bowrofl: jk, racing is always more about the driver than the vehicle, though.

Can the stock Nismo, finish the 1/4 mile in 12.7? Everyone says its faster because it is.

Drag racing is always a crap shoot. If you can't launch your times are going to stink. The 5.0 is actually really tough to get down the track because it's under tired. On the Brembo cars you have 255 width Pirellis all around that spin spin spin with just about every shift, so it's really easy to go slow with the car if you are too aggressive with your right foot. :icon17:

The car needs at least a 275 width rear.

in lieu of not stirring the pot a few months back i chose not talk about all the runs I had with my Bro in laws 5.0 at car days at our Air Force base...stock for stock, especially on rolls i was never blown away, never got more than a single car on me, and the higher the roll, the closer i was...like i said from a dig they can be pretty nasty in the right hands but there is allot of hype surrounding this car. The meat of the owners arent getting this amazing fantastic times. Infact my friends with LS1 have been beating them mod for mod...I was also shown some vids on youtube where the 5.0 loses to LS1...faster than the Z, yes i would say so...but its no where near the legendary percieved status this car has gotten. Great car dont get me wrong but you will be suprised. :stirthepot:
