Those GS's are fast. I did a 20min session with my Stage 4 Dinan M2 and a buddy with a GS. We were neck and neck the whole time, and neither could pass each other.
It was interesting to see where each car was faster. I'd catch up under braking (probably the driver), he'd pull a tiny bit to midcorner (lighter car), I'd gain on corner exit (more torque), and we would be even down the straight until about 90mph where his more efficienct aero and slight hp advantage would kick in and he would start to walk away.
Was one of the most fun on track sessions I've ever had! The best part is I could put all my tires in my car & drive home w/o a trailer.  |
You sound like a pretty experienced driver, and this alone is huge in terms of lap time. More than huge, actually. But I am curious, what is the TQ of a Dinan Stage 4 tuned M2?
The Vettes has 460tq from the factory, and I think this figure is actually underrated. Those 6.2L V8s are power houses.
