C7 LT1 vs C6 LS3 both stock 2 roll races
Hi. Both bone stock except for the C6 muffler delete only, no tune, no intake, no nothing. The cats are not deleted. Race took place in Sweden. This C6 is faster than the average stock C6. Both Z51.
My first post. I hope I don't break any rules.

Meh not surprising 
C7 is an auto and likely has the tall stock rear gear.

Assuming lowest hp and weight for both cars, we're looking at 120 lbs. and 25 chp difference. To me, it's a wash, not a walk for the LS3 C6.

I guess I just assumed the LT1 would be notably faster. Interesting.

So did an owner of a base C7 when he tried to go against my C6 w/Z51. He was pissed, not to mention a little embarrassed. His girlfriend was in the passenger seat.
