Default IS350 Vs LS1 TA

Here's a video of my bone stock IS350 with all season tires against a LS1 TA with atleast cam and exhaust. I pulled the TA 1.5-2 cars the first 1/8 mile, but he came up strong at the end. This run was the best of the night 13.6@102. The weather was in the high 70's with 50-60% humidity...welcome to texas.

Nice vid and good run! For the record, LS1 motors only have 1 cam. I could not see what the TA ran, but if it was cammed with some bolt-ons, it would run anywhere from 118-122mph on average so he should have been very strong on the top end.

He actually ran a 13.3@110. It was a fast car no doubt, just need a better driver.
