If you are racing from a stop, my guess is you get the jump and he runs you down.

I gotta say with sticky tires and u get the jump you will take him up until the 1320 if it goes 1325 you will loose.

i raced a new (at the time) stock trans am with a 6 speed and my car (2002 gt) at the time just had flows, 3.73's and short shifter and i got him about half a car length all the way to 5th gear! but it all depends on the driving skills too. good luck and smoke him! jon

equal drivers? equal tire? LS1 by 6 cars or more.
The 4V NA cobras are the ones that will be close (but still lose) [ August 22, 2003, 01:20 PM: Message edited by: shade- ]

If you're racing from a stop, and you get a good launch, you'll probably stay ahead until the end of 3rd gear and then he'll blow by you. From a roll, you might get the jump being his car is an automatic, but he'll run you down pretty fast after that. Let us know how it turns out.

We won the top three races but the end score was a 8 to 11 loss We lost more than 3 races on the tree so if anything the drivers lost and not the cars

Isn't it ALOT harder to launch on an automatic than in a 6spd LS1, you should be able to stick with him all the way to 3rd gear, after that it's all him

don't remember what year they changed engines. if 98 is still lt-1 it's a drivers race. If 98 is ls-1 you will need some 4.10's to make it a drivers race. But drivers can make a huge difference. oh and we want video. ray

good job. that a4 in the z must drag it down at the higher speeds. With m6 cars it is just the opposite. We tend to jump them in 1st and 2nd and then hang on and hope we hit the finish before they catch us. I know I need to have a car length on a m6 when I shift into 4th(4.10's) or they catch me in the last 100 - 200 ft of the 1320. of course I don't have your good breathing mods just U/D pullies and 4.10's.
