The condition of those cars probably wasn't too good mechanically.

 

I dunno why, but give it to me..

 

No idea..but have fun getting smoked by the GN.

 

GN Go byebye.:rockon:

 

Have fun getting smoked by me

 

those motors were most likely blueprinted and completely gone through. everything was done to them that they could within the rules, which are strict. i think they're supposed to be stock but they weren't just pulled off the engine line.

A friend of mine used to build the corvette challenge cars' engines which made more power than any stock L98.

Those race cars were probably maintained very well, i wish i had one, it's probably worth a lot of money too (those ttops and purple paint don't help the value though).

 

my 1LE doesn't seem too fast copmpared to my friends 91 z28. it's a 5.7 w/ like 50,000 miles on it, very good condidtion, we both have full exhaust n custom ram air (so exact same mods), my 1LE has 100,000 miles on it and i loose by a full car length every time we race. but other iroc's n z28's i beat all day long. i think the 1LE's were probably really fast but mine has way too many miles now.

 

Hey, I dont know about your car but I guess the other cars weren't in tune.

But dude, can you clean up your typing a little.
Its kind of hard to read.

 

could someone tell what's a 1le players challenge camaro. i've never heard of it.

 

Looks like one of these:

Ah, there is some special stuff done to them.

 

love the 200 mph tape over the headlight buckets on that one!

read the passage about the motors under the pic to see what they did to them.

 

I had an ex 87 Player Challenge car too!(305, 5 spd 3.45s)
Weight plays a factor- mine was a total stripper-
and although it was "stock" blue printing plus some exhuast work (maybe ported heads?) likely raised the hp.

I beat 350 IROCs and Mustang GTs no problem. In fact it was only 0.3-0.4 tenths slower then a LT1
4th gen.

 

I'm glad i read this post,It was realy informative!

 

some vintage player's pictures.

 

and another

 

one more

 

oops

 

FAster than other IROCs because more than likely rear end gearing 3:45 and N10 dual cats exhaust. Plus your car is lighter. What year are the other cars too? 89's had higher HP than earler years.

 

welcome to 2002

 

lmao....

I bet that GN smoked his @$$$$
