One had a 2005 GTO 400hp 6.0l, and the other a 2005 CTS-V 400hp 5.7l. niether could get out of the 14;s all night. It was a little higher elevation but still.....
Tell him to leave the line on the 3rd honk, then cheat and leave on the 2nd

Do you mean like this?

For most people it's not a 13 second car? If they got it to hook just once and feathered the throttle more, they'd be 13 seconds. it's not hard in that car...

The GTO's are quick, my ex-boss has one.

Well Mr. GTO will be a little quit for the next few weeks, turns out he was out this past weekend and went up against a Ford pony (he did not say which model) at an intersection; from what he tells us, he was pulling away when he hit some black ice and lost control, ended up doing a 180 then sliding *** end into a street sign and down a small embankment. The damage to his car was not all that bad; a nice dent on the rear bumper, some scraped up paint and broken glass from where the sign hit the back window.
I ask for some photos but he refused….

i had an 04 gto and an 05. the 04 is an ls1. 05 is an ls2. all stock i went 13.76 at 101 mph in the 04, and once i got my cam, 3600 stall, longtubes, and drag radials i went 12.46 at 108. my 05 went 12.90 at 108 with just long tubes and a tune. my 04 put down 391 rwhp and 354 rwtq. the 05 put down 361 rwhp and 352 rwtq. the ls2 is DEFINITELY stronger in stock form.
heres the 05 which i traded in for my titan

heres the 04

^^ see, pretty much in stock form the 05 gto is a mid to low 13 second car.

I must admit I have always liked the GTO and was glad when Pontiac decided to reintroduce it too bad they could not make it work

, a victim of a good concept and poor planning. As for my buddy he has been eating humble pie all week,

It's strange to see such a vehicle with some race bred lines behind it and HP like that being made by Pontiac. Even the overall looks are good. Weird.

The GTO was my secondary choice, but i decided against getting a big v8 vehicle and got a rice burner

At least my rice burner runs into the 14's!!
