82 Supra inline-6 Vs 92 Trans Am WS6
Ok my friend just got his BEUTIFUL firebird. Its very nice. Some dude at work has an 82 supra that says that he wants to race him. He says he has ABOUT 220 HP on this thing......lol its stock. I did some research...the car weighs 3200 lbs, its stock 2.8 litre inline 6......according to the stats pages says it puts out an awe inspiring 145 HP. I told my friend to race him for money....beat the pants off of him, and have some fun! This dude says hes going to be doin headwork, and some interals work on his engine.....says he'll be pushing 300 horses on engine....alone....lol not without turbo buddy!!
anywho, just for sh*ts and giggles.....who ya'll think will win??
laters.

don't get too cocky there are some imports that are easily pushing 300+ hp with no turbo's but i say go ahead and race him and roast his *** with all that torque in the L98 it'll be no contest 
BTW even with 300hp he'll have a hard time beating your friends car if it's in tune. those L98's pull some nice low torque #'s

i think it would be seriously close giving the L98 the edge cause of 345lbs of torque compared to 200 to 250 at most on the torque side. the i-m-poopers don't make torque like the L98. if the old supra's is around 3200 lbs (i'm just guessing) i think it woud be a good race IF that car does make 300 hp which i seriously doubt.

Some match-ups are stupid. This is one of them. Bring a couple lawn chairs and tell the Supra dude you'll be waiting for him at the finish line.

Yah....I know a few of these guys. I think they are all related. Does he have a pale white face, red hair, and a big red nose?? Does he have a really really big pair of shoes and blows balloons into animals?
