I finally got the ***** to take my V6 to the track.

The best was a 17.4 @ 81mph with some wheel spin. I cant hook worth a ****. I also took the V8 (had my dad follow me) and it ran a 13.1 @ 103mph. Not the best of a day for me.

a cheap hook up helper, can be found at your local parts store.

get a set of those coil over spring for like 30 bucks, and pre load the drive tire good.

of course you could go with drag shocks but this is an easy hr fixer that works well.

LOL, woah that was a long time ago. Yea that guy's RS was a big POS. He told me he would trade his old RS for mine even though mine was a V6 anyday. But he sold it about a month ago and got him a 1999 or 2000 Mustang GT. Its red with two black stripes going down it. It looks really sharp...for a Ford. He has always been a fan of Mustangs so he didnt give a **** about his old camaro. He just trashed it. Anyways I have driven his old RS and then I drove another 92 TBI but this one was a 5 speed. It would have def gave me my *** in my V6. But it also only had about 8x,xxx miles on it. it had the torque but it felt like it fell on its face about half way through the RPM range. But thanks for calling me BS on something that was posted about half a year ago.

I cant believe everyone didn't get their anger out with that "305 TBI vs my car" thread. I mean ****, with 200 something replys you would think everyone would have gotten it out of their system. Christ people get over it, a kill is a kill.
