Default 2000 z28 vs 2005 sti

well ive raced this guy before 4 times from a roll and i always pass him up at 100mph but he wants to go from a dig this time and im wondering if ill be able 2 catch up before the quarter mile ?

sti mods boost controller exaust headers and a couple of other things i dont recall hes tuned and made 283awhp and 310rwtq


my mods stallled a4 pacesetter longtubes and full exaust with a cutout slp lid and descreend maf paired up with the horrible 273s

so do i have a chance from a dig ?

how good can the guy launch?
what rear tires do you have?

if he can launch you are done. Espically on the street, even if you have good tires.

He has a car capable of running mid-high 12s, so if he can nail his launch/shifts then I think he has you in the 1/4. But you have a stalled A4 which = consistency. So it's gonna be close on the big end.

Definitely. It's the gears that are holding you back.

I've ran similarly modded wrx's and always catch them about mid 2nd gear.....its a drivers race IMO. The car is capable of high 12's pretty easily just depends on how you get out of the hole and how much power you have up top

lol, Don't spin of the line, He'll eat you. But you should power by him at the top end if he doesnt kill you at the launch. Take everything out of your car or transfer it to the rear so you have a little more down force for your launch and **** just go for it. and if not it looks like you need a bottle =)
