The only 3 way race I have ever been in had me in the back and two cars in front of me. There was a new SRT-4 against a Seville STS. They raced and the Seville beat him by a car and I was on the Sevilles *** at 3/4 throttle. The next time they went the SRT-4 had the STS by a half car and I was still pulling too hard to floor it. I shifted at 4000 and I didnt even have to spin the tires (babied it off the line)! STS impressed me, SRT did not!

I've had a couple in my '89.

First was against a '96 T/A and a '94 Cobra, both were minor bolt-on cars. Great race, went from a 30 mph roll. I'd pull a fender from the get go but by 100 mph they would even it up and the LT1 would inch past us.

Next was against the same Cobra and a '95 GT vert. It started out as a 3-way but the vert couldn't hang so it ended up being just me and the Cobra.

Couple of my friends and I are planning one...

'85 LX - best of 11.39 on a 150 shot, adding a 2nd stage and looking for 10's

'94 GT - FFW S/W car...went 11.70 with old combo of stock heads/intake and .500" cam...should go 10's on the new motor for the updated rules

My car - looking for mid 10's on a 150 shot

we've got $50 3 ways on it, just waiting for everyone to get running and tuned

Not Jeremy Mortorella's car is it? My dad ran him this weekend and he went deep 10s, at 134 I believe! SW is a pretty insane class too bad besides that you can only run Street Stang and those rules are gay. I fit if I add the sway bar and dump the LTs!

i ate up much imps in my STS. took it to the track once and it ran 14.9 @ 96mph....hehe

i haven't had a 3 way race in a long time. last one that i can remember that is worth mentioning was against a modded bolt on 89 or so GT a pretty much stock daytona iroc and my 82 Z. i beat the GT by about 2 or so car lengths and we trashed the daytona iroc by about 8 car lengths.......hehe

Nah, not Jeremy...it's Tim Overton (Joe's little brother for you LT-1 fans out there). He ran a white fox body coupe last year but sold it and has been building the SN95 this year, but hasn't been able to finish it yet because they've been moving into a new house and he's been busy helping Joe open the shop.

Jeremy's car is insane! I've seen him put it on the bumper out of the hole, on the 1-2 shift, and the 2 - 3 shift on the same run

I had a 4 way race once. Me, LT1 Z28, Fox body Saleen, Cobra R look-a-like. Took place in houston one night on a popular but yet-nameless road (it was a pretty stupid place to race). Anyway, we all line up at a light, light turns green, I spin like mad, we all stay pretty much in a line until I shift into second and start pulling away, the Saleen close behine, Cobra R a little farther back, Z in last. I kept on pulling away until I let off after shifting into 3rd, there was no use in going any farther. They knew who won But the rest of the night was pretty uneventful, no other races worth mention.

Never actually been in one but I saw 2 eclipses and a civic all gun it and start racing when a cop pulled out right behind them and pulled 'em all over. I just watched and started laughing my *** off
