86 2.8L Camaro vs. Geo Storm 5-Speed
Well for now the GTA is down and my girlfriends parents bought a 93 Geo Storm for a back up car, and they are letting me use it. I wanna know who would win in a race between a 2.8 ThirdGen against the Storm? Both cars are stock. - AARON

Well if you doubt that you can take the geo make sure the road has a curve or two in it. How funny is it to say that it would come down to a drivers race. A geo may be hard to power shift (due to it's finely tuned drivetrain) so the 'ol 2.8 may get it. 
I'd put money on the camaro.

Is the Storm a GSI? My friend used to run Showroom Stock in SCCA with a Storm. The GSI (I think it's GSI) was quicker than the regular Storms.

2.73's Suck
That is to much for me to handle, way to intense. It reminds me of my old winter beater that was a 95 cavalier with the 2.2 TBI and a blistering 115 horse and 3 spd auto tranny. I spun the tires once and that was because I was on ice. The thing would run 4000rpm at 80.
