street racing is a bad idea...

Edit:sorry for locking your thread...I assumed you were talking about streetracing...with the incident with the kid with the m5 I don't want anything like that to happen around here..

You may be able to take the camaro. I've bet a 00' TA with a stock LS1 and auto.

The cobra is a no go unless hes a bad driver. The Ls1 is a maybe depending on mods. I have beat lightly modded ls1 with my car when It was n/a and had less mods. Granted i had drag radials and he never caught back up to me. Buts it possible, but i have also been destroyed by lightly modded ones too. Its a drivers race with the ls1 if stock or lightly modded.

you should be able to stick with the SS down low, but then he will get you up top. i'm assuming you're going to be running a drag radial. I have 2 buddy's that have run 13.3's with their stock auto LS1's, so if you get traction you'll get a jump on the SS from the line.
