Ok so I have a decently powered camaro. its a 350 with around 360 hp and 400 ft. lbs t. I have a 700 r4 with stall, 3.73's, and 9.5 " rear tires. its kind of a sleeper considering i have a single exit exhaust ( 3") and its not tooo loud. (its like a flowmaster 50 series or something, I wasnt the one to put it on and i havent gotten around to changing it yet). the other day i was filling up and a teal lx drives down the road and just revvs it up looking at me. So I finish pumping and casually pull out in the direction of the stang (my house was right down the road). well he was driving extremely slow (guessing waiting for me? lol). I catch up to him and start to follow him (toward my house). well we come to a stop sign and the kid in the back seat is egging me on. begging me to race. so i smile, turn left (down the little drag race road in my town) and the minute he turns he jumps on it and launches. so i so also. At first i was a little behind cus he jumped it.. but then i was right on his a**. and acutally pulled up next to him to show i could pass no prob. the look on their faces was priceless. i actually found out later that the car was for sale and it was being taken on a test drive when i raced it ... with the owner driving hahaha. i went to check it out a few days later. its a 5 spd. after mark. heads and some wierd fuel thing hanging off the back bumper.. i dunno. but on the window it had a 1/8 mi time at like 8 sec? anyway.. just thought i'd share my victory. it was quite obvious that if we raced next to each other at a light... it wouldnt have been much of a race. lol

 

Beast!!....represtin the 3rdgens lol

 

Thats awesome dude. Im guessing you have a solid mid 12 second car. My buddy's mustang with around 275hp feels like it hauls! Until you get into fourth.

He thinks it pushes 400. He ran a 101mph in the quarter, so hes much less than that. The thing is light as hell and with the t-5 it rips around, but its deceiving.

Where in pa are you? I'm near lancaster, you gonna take that thing to Cecil?

 

Im in chambersburg. Cecil? I dunno what that is lol. but yeh i do plan on taking it to the track this summer. I have a few more mods comming soon too.

 

I don't know the exact name of the track. In cecil county though.

 

hmm alright cool, i'll have to look that up. my plans are at some pt. to take it to summit point.

 

Good kill, since i went with the 383 in my 89, i have had no fox body give me any trouble, shoot, not even LS1 cars. Unless they had a power adder, the stangs are nothing.

 

i used to have a 383....it blew up . person who i bought it from didnt know anything. but yeh ... i can actually hang with ls1's pretty well. ive taken a trans am with exhuast. it was an automatic tho. but yeh. there is not much that makes me happier than makin a mustang or honda/integra look bad. its soo easy lol

 

For comparison his car is pretty slow, mines a mid to lower 8 second car on 18" street tires with unported stock heads (93 Cobra valves in them), stock cam, and a few bolt ons. Been 7.9s in the 1/8th on a tire. Sounds like you have a 12 second car the way you pulled.
