Return of the IROC

O.K. my friend owns this 1997 6-cylinder rs camaro (stock) and he believes that he can trash my 1990 IROC-Z (TPI). Do you think he can or should I show him the power of TPI?

Is your's a 350? or 305? He might not be too far back if you have a 305.

It is a 305 which is why I was asking, he's automatic and I'm standard. I know he's not too far back so if I do race I better not f**k up!

Hmm lets see you have 230hp and stick, he's got the weak geared auto and you have the 3.42 stick.

I definitely think you have him.

Spank his dumbass and don't back off until you have crushed him so badly he cries. Stupid 4thgen V6 owners are starting to **** me off. A auto 3.8l can't even take a bone stock peanut cammed 305 TPI auto (been there, done that at least 20+ times, best friend used to have a 3.8l...), much less any of the 5spd TPI or 350 cars. Yet to hear most of them tell it all thirdgens are worthless... Beat down time...

dusted him today, now he won't talk to me I went by his house and lit em' up to get him to come out and play some more but he just stared at me as I went by. As for mark's comment he is right I don't haave 230hp but iv'e heard all different ratings for my car. more like 210 to 220hp. hopefully after some american thunder exhaust I'll be around there.
