Speaking of G-Techs, I took the GVR4 to NW Wyoming for Christmas, with the intention if playing with my little brother's G-Tech, and harassing my uncle who bought an LS1 WS6 Ram-Air Trans-Am last year.  There was snow everywhere but the middle of the roads, and as a result, I couldn't take off hard without spinning for a few feet.  I was a bit disappointed that I couldn't get into the 4's.  I was running basically 5 flat 0-60 times, and mid-high 13s at 102.5mph (as usual, G-Techs are about 3mph fast at the end).  I took a couple gallons of Xylene with me to use for octane booster.  It helped, but I still couldn't run more than 16psi without significant knock.

So anyway, last night (Christmas) we're having a family get-together, and I convince my uncle to bring the TA.  Afterwards we head out together to run them.  I pulled my exhaust cap, and we went for it.  I beat him pretty bad the first run, and on the second run I waited until I saw him move, still beating him but not as bad.  Anyway, here's the good part:  I had my little brother ride with him, and run a video camera.  We now have VHS footage from inside the TA, of a GVR4 giving it the smackdown!!! ;-)
