Re: 92 z28 vs. SS sliverado?? chance??

I've seen several of those SS trucks run and for the life of me can't remember the times they ran but I DO remember I wasn't impressed at all. They don't even come close to comparing to a Lightning or Vipertruck. I know when they came out with them they were all wheel drive which made them even slower, I think they got away from that on the newer ones. Do you have a chance? Hey, only if you're in the race

Re: 92 z28 vs. SS sliverado?? chance??

which ss silverado? the one form the mid ninteys with the 454 turd or the newer ones? i have a 04 AWD SS silverado and i will agree that its not a rocket, but as for you everyday pick up, its quick enough and has no problem launching. Its not in the same catageoy as a lightning or vipertruck so no use comparing them.
they are 345hp and 380 Ft/lbs in a 5000 lb vehicle with AWD

I think 2003 and up ones the are high 15's .

I've seen them trying to scream down my block, not very frightening. I think you got a shot

Re: 92 z28 vs. SS sliverado?? chance??

You got a little less hp but your in the same ballpark as far as tq. you also have alot less weight to pull down the track, your car was built to go fast, not so much the SS. If you can get a video :-)

Slow, you should win by far. You may be in trouble if he has modded the truck though, LS engine gain power if you look at them right, it's crazy.
