No every time I try to get him to come race he makes up excuses on gas and says that he has places to go, yet I do not know where he lives either. When school comes back around though, he has no choice lol. He keeps telling me he has a magnaflow catback, ram air kit, k&n, and an air lid but im sure its b.s. considering he knows nothing about cars.

Well he came to my house but did not want to race, his car is nice. He has ram air, air lid, k&N, and magnaflow catback. I took him for a ride in my car though and he didnt say anything, but when I took his buddy out, he said it would be a real close race. I will get him to race though lol, he dont wanna wait til after roller rockers.

My predictions.

Auto - you win.

Manual - depends on how long your race is from a dig. Roll = you not happy camper.

Made it simple.
Y87 optioned V6 Firebirds and Camaros had a posi. In addition they also had a dual outlet exhaust and if it was an automatic then 3.42 gears. All 5-speeds had 3.23s. Those V6s have been known to break into the high 14s with a good driver and simple mods.

*edit*
wow I didn't realize how old the thread was woops. And that this had already been discussed.
