Should be a VERY close race, I would give it to her from a 40 or so roll though.

Why don't you guys just find out the best way possible?

No you don't... I'm starting to have to worry about my girls ride.... You know how much it would suck to get beat by not only a girl.. But your significant other!

i think you will take her from a dig, but from a roll i think she mights have it! but then again from a dig its all about traction. so could be a drivers race, worst case just run her on the busa

That's a driver's race from a dig. Whoever has better traction. I think she'd get you from a roll though, since she has more horsepower.

with the mods in your sig and stock tune... *maybe* 325. with a good tune you could be 335-345.

You really don't want that. Met my wife 3 years ago, she said she wanted to drag race. So she ran her 98 z for a year. Then found 71 Camaro. Had to do a lot of work on the car to get it ready for the track. In the last 2 years she has finished ahead of me in points at both of the tracks we race at. The girl is good. She told me to NEVER buy her jewelery, only car parts for b-day and x-mas. And I thought I was expensive.

Any intake mods? if not then 325 is pushing it, get the ls6 and a good lid/ 85mm maf setup and you could be near 340ish

Just race her, my girlfriend has a 99 camaro and we race everytime we are out, I always smoke her ein my cammed camaro, 424 hp, vs here mayby 310 hp car, she did beat my truck though... I had he in the hole shot but all the tq from that 440 big block gets out there quick, but here hp and being 1200lbs lighter was able to catch me quick.

Don't be one of those guys that waits til XXXdate to race, you both have the cars, so get in them and run them on the highway, or from a dig, hell do both.

Its all in fun and if you lose, she may give up that pitty sex.

edit: silver has a point with the intake mods...so maybe less that 406malibu's estimates.

It has just a k&n filter now i'm getting a lid soon and i'm gonna do the free air mod this weekend. I wanna wait till spring/summer cuz the ground is really cold and i'm worried about her ability to control the car in a loss of traction situation. ALso i get SEX whenever i want it but i have never had pitty sex cuz she beat me at something might be really good (doubt it could get any better than it is) but may have to end up getting beat more often LOL
