Guesses please
 
i was wondering what you all thought about an 03 GT vert w/ 4.10, long tubes, pullies, intake goodies and a tune racing an SS gaymaro w/ exhaust and possibly a tune?

- both cars are sticks.

assuming driver skill is equal I say your toast.

Youll be eaten alive. good luck.
lol

what would a ss camaro be running the quarter anyway? - stock or slightly modded - Ive seen mid 13's. If thats the case then I wont be far behind.

MattJ 08-23-2006 07:32 PM

i had a girl friend running 13.2 with a stock (flowmaster muffler) 2002 trans am with ls1. Its auto with street tires. SS's or WS6s are considerably faster.

Roushz-R-Better 08-23-2006 07:52 PM

i dunno bout that
 
Ok, sorry but i call BS on that one :)... I mean i know they are quick but not that quick... a manual ss I could see in low 13s - or was it a modded auto?. Ive heard rumors of high 12's out of stockers but, those are from unreliable sources. Regaurdless I guess Im fukd. But you were running wut mid 13's before headers so I dunno, did u use slicks?

Roushz-R-Better 08-23-2006 08:01 PM

I just went to a camaro site, and a pro driver guy posted a 13.5 with a stock SS - but it says he also ran a 12.89 with a stock z28 (same motor)... which i find hard to believe. basically im seeing low 13s out of manuals

zigzaggthefag321 08-23-2006 08:02 PM

stop speculating...there is only one way to find out. tuck in yer nutz and see what happens.

Roushz-R-Better 08-23-2006 08:09 PM

well said
 
haha I d rather let the little doush keep wondering, Lol at least my car is 10000x better looking. Anyway I told him to show me his time slip, a little ill show u mine if you show me yours. But I dont really want to race on the street anyway... I like having a clean record.

I used to own one!!

And you would be in trouble for sure.

Badfish 08-23-2006 08:13 PM

meh i raced a stock ws6 and won. so..it could be close

blackstallion25 08-23-2006 09:43 PM

a kid that lives by me just bought a 02 ss camaro an all it has is slp catback an kan n airlid an he ran 13 flat
just buy some slicks then run him so at least u get a better launch then him

good luck all in all

Roushz-R-Better 08-23-2006 11:11 PM

Thats what I was thinking, I mean I should be in the low 13's my self so I dont really think he would blow me out of the water. ehh only time will tell ;)

Teal_Beast 08-24-2006 09:25 AM

him being a manual leaves a lot out in the open, if your a better driver then he is, then i'd say you have a damn good chance of taking him. Make sure you go from a dig to make it hard on him.

r3dn3ck 08-24-2006 10:11 AM

out here at sea level we see WS6 and SS mullet-mobiles pulling 12.8-13.2 regularly. They're very fast and they have a torque arm style suspension so they have TONS more rear grip than a stang and they just leave us sitting at the line spinning tires. They do weigh 800lbs more than a stang on average so there's a little evening out on power/weight but with the traction issues we have an uphill battle the whole way.

Blk02stang 08-24-2006 04:57 PM

he's got you in HP right from the start, and if he can drive good...wave by by to him. They are 13.2-13.4 production car! My buddy has a z28 (ls1) with just exhaust and a tune...he pulled from my boys modded '02 gt. If your on a good tire it will be closer, but if he just launches it like most idiots do on a street radial....he's not going anywere but side to side spinning.

Roushz-R-Better 08-24-2006 05:55 PM

Can I borrow 10000.00?
 
So if I did LCA's? suspension stuff - would that help? I mean I know Im toast highway but like you say from a stop or 1 st gear roll, I may have a better chance. I appreciate all the comments but its really in matierial because if does want to go head to head its going to be at the track.. Im just not that stupid. _ Anyway I was hoping that if I power shifted the fuk outa my car with a good lauch around 3K i could hold him off. Any other suggestions for non-powering adding mods to give me some better times? (besides slicks) Im running Y rated 200mph tires ( but the tread wear is 420AAA ) so theyre rnt going to get sticky, however they are A HELL OF a LOT HARDER to smoke and chirp then stockers.:boink:
