06 Pont 6.0L 400hp GTO 6spd and E46 M3 smg
Ok I talked to this guy with the stock 6.0L GTO 6spd. We agreed on a 2nd gear roll. When going into the triple digits I was couple cars ahead. Same outcome 2 other times. I thought it was going to be a close one but not the case. The other run was a E46 M3 333hp with full exhaust. We did a 2nd gear roll. I got him 2-3cars.

AMG Despite having 400 hp and 395 tq, those GTO's are ridiculously heavy. That sounds about right

I saw 6.0L GTOs at the track running low 13s@106-107 even in cold weather 45F mine would trap 109+. Yes he was good with the shifts car didnt pull back in the shifts. We did total of 4runs. They do run out of steam way up top(5cars).

Good run, some are stronger than others. I had an '06 GTO 6spd and ran 13.2@109 bone stock. I raced one CLK55 and had no problem pulling on him, don't know if he was modded or not. I would have expected the GTO to start pulling back on you considering the LSx top end power, but anything can happen on the street.

His car trapped that in cold weather(below 70 degrees if I remember right). My car traps that in 98 degree weather MIR.

yah. is that faster than W209 55s? do most W208 55s trap that high or is yours a factory beast? Your car's trap speed is decently higher than a stock c32 or 55.

Going by the mag specs the W209 55s trap 108-109 low 13s. They have the higher comp 11.0 vs my 10.5. They are fast considering they are 37xx lbs 362hp. Mine is about 34xxlbs. But trq is the same 376. I would probably get the better jump because of the lighter lbs.

i raced a 6L GTO w/ my clk55 and we were pretty even, but his car didnt sound stock.
anyway, you should run carl. he will def beat you (probably easily) but it would give you an idea of what headers and better intake can do to our cars. his car flies at high speeds.
btw our cars have more like 360-370hp NOT 340. there are a lot of dyno # that show this.

Did he look like this guy?
Were there GI Joe dolls in the car? Did he hop out and throw them at you, or threaten you with his big bad ray gun?
