Car: 92 Mustang Coupe/89 Camaro RS
Engine: 5.0 carb'd/305
Transmission: T5/T5
Axle/Gears: 3.73 and stock TrakLok/stock GM
I assume you wanna know if you'll win...
Mustang - Those cars are total turds. Even slower than their GT relatives and I never thought that was possible
Seriously, launch well and you'll win this one by a few cars minimum. I used to ***** pre-05's in my LO3...bone stock indeed
Camaro: Itll give you a run for your money but in the end, you should pull out the victor......
Get the holeshot is what matters. LO3's have the low end torque to their advantage. Launch good and dont spin and youll win both.....then go home and blueprint a bigger motor like 350+ cubic inches to drop in there
