slightly modded 00' camaro SS vs a 08' Charger R/T
I just got a week ago a 2000 Camaro SS M6 with Bassani headers + catted Y, and factory SLP short shifter. Of course the first thing I did was post up some pictures on facebook. Anyways this kid at my school who has a stock 2008 Charger R/T automatic says that his car could kill mine. He said that the reason why Chevy stopped making the Camaro is because they all sucked really bad and couldn't keep up with the chargers (correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think they made chargers in 2002) and Mustangs. I told him he has no idea what he is talking about and that the Camaro is a fast car, but his car was pretty fast too. He then told me to stop trying to kiss *** and to race him, if I was man enough. There is a wide and long strip of road that's kind of curvy in a canyon going up to a place called the Highlands that he wants to race me on. Do you think I can take him?

If the car is a RT the guy must be on drugs or be a retard. You have nothing to worry about. The 5.7 HEMI is a good motor making HP nearly as high as a stock LS1...what kills him? The weight! Its a pig! If it was a SRT8 with some bolt ons it will be a whole another story.

He's probably one of those ********* who will leave his car in drive, you don't even have to sweat it. I say you'll pull on him by 5 lengths or more lol
You: "Hey I'm starting off in second, what gear are you in?"
Him: "I DONT KNOW!!!"

I don't know who is on crack more, you for thinking about racing someone on a curvy road or him for racing you when a better match would be against a V-6 F-bod haha. Uh oh... I mentioned V-6 and racing........ I hope that does not offend someone.... Funny that a V-6 would run with a "muscle car"
Hopefully it is not a de badged SRT-8 and not moded.....

lol alright I will and the said road isn't that curvy and the curves are are long sweeping turns and there are not that many. Lol also this kid with a 2000 V6 mustang that has new mufflers and a body kit + new spoiler, who tells everyone that his car was worth 50 grand, but he bought it for 30 (which he did which is a rip off), is who I really want to race. He talked so much **** about my old little car. Lol that race is truly gonna be awesome. My school is pretty much filled with these kids who think they can race because they own nice cars like the 328i and the G35, but have done nothing to them and don't know how to race. This year is gonna be filled with epic awesomeness.
EDIT: This is the said road where he wants to race. This is probably the best place to race around where I am because it's the only place where there are not many cars and cops.

Go to the track... you will live longer.............. f-bodies and curves don't mix........ I almost trashed my 96 taking a rather long sweeping curve...... curves are a lot tighter then you think when you are going fast.........
Tell him to meet you at the track... that way you both will know you will go home alive, ticket free, or jail free.....

If it is a 1/4 between stop signs then that means you would have to blow the next stop sign????
$150 here alone for blowing a stop sign...
Most street races would not go to the track even if it was 5 minutes away and just go to get a time and that is it...... all well... I thought you CA guys had some really strict street racing laws? A local who came from there said cars get impounded and crushed all the time for racing........... He was from your area. Worth the risk I guess?
#14
yeah that's true, I guess if they refuse or call me a ***** I will just tell them that, if they won't race me at the track they're too scared to lose or something like that.

Nice pay day.
Just not worth getting killed or watching your car get crushed.
Better yet unless they are broke see how confident they are and say $100 or more...
There is a local Supra that used to talk some serious trash to a Viper that at the time did not have a lot of work done... Viper owner has a lot of money and later put 23k down on the next race..... lets just say the supra driver had that kind of money but was not that confident in his car to risk 23k hahaha.
The track does not lie, if it says you lost you lost... on the street if it is close then it turns into a guessing game.

Have both meet you at the track and get a pool going, all three throw some money into a hat, winer takes all, easy money for you as long as you don't break. If they are that confident each person throws in at least $50... Everyone goes home safe and you have at least $100 in your pocket.... have some of their buddies that are slow get in on it also... just make sure there is someone there not racing that will hold the money and make sure they have it before everyone races...
Nice pay day.

Never show all the card's in your hand... If they want to see you make some test hits make sure they are "less then impressive" Like... a 15 sec run for the V-6 and Charger guy haha. Just shift from second to 6th or something haha.
WHne you win and they complain just tell them they never said you had to make a fast pass.......
Never win by more then you have to

Take some buddies with you.... people tend to get mad when they loose money..... If you are blowing someones doors off ease off some to make it look closer..... next guy thinks he can take you not knowing you eased off the throttle some........

Make sure the Charger is not a debadged SRT-8 (can tell by the wheels or the brakes, STR-8's have brembo's). Make sure you put a good tune up on your cal also... good plugs, clean air filter and all.. I did this to my LT1 and it really woke it up. Id even run some seafoam threw the vacum system (follor the directions) and te fuel system to help it out some... ti works great on my stuff..
I have heard and seen guys pay way to much for a car.... There was a well known past sponsor on here years ago that got an LS1 Forumula 6 speed with body damage and over 100k miles for like 18k........... a lot of people laughed at that one.... he said "the dealer said it was a good deal". I even had a used car lot try and hustle me into a 97 SS for 10k... has 85k miles, not fully loaded, had a few issues, missing the car cover and all... I passed and so did a friend of mine haha.
