Both of our cars are stock, and both are 5 speed. This guy wants to race for 50 bucks, stop light to stop light like an 1/8th mile.. let me know what u think.

My buddy had a fiero with the v-6 auto and that was a dogg. This guy has the 4 cylinder?? I think you should win but not really sure of v-6 thirdgenners I know a kid that ran 17 flats all day though in a 2.8 should be close race dont get your hopes up though very tough to judge

Since 83 fieros and fieros with 2.0's don't exist, I say you should be able to take him.

Since 84's don't have 5 speeds, figure it to be a 2.5 powered 85 fiero and it would probably run right around a high 17, low 18 second quarter if it's in good shape.

2.5L Fiero w/ 5 spd = 10.5 0-60. Maaaaybe 9.5s 0-60

92hp @ 4800 and 140lb ft @ 2800 w/ cw of 2800 and mid engine RWD

vs

135hp @ 4900 and 160 lb ft @ 3900 w/ cw of 3100 and front engine RWD

I've personally driven such a Fiero, and its pretty slow. But so are v6 third gens My mom's camaro bit a**

Good get up and go off the line, almost has you in torque, rofl, not to mention drivetrain layout is helpful.

I'm wanting to say that Fiero might even have you, maybe. Kinda up for grabs perhaps
