Default What is going to happen in my next race?

So my buddy's friend just got a 1997 Trans Am. Bone stock and automatic, and he INSISTS it will be a really close race when we run.

I have a 1998 Camaro Z28. My mods are in my sig, dynoed at 335/350 on a dynojet before my LS6 intake, K&N system, and P+P TB.

I'm curious as to how much you guys think i should beat him from a dig to 110 or a 40-110 roll, as i have never ran an LT1 before.

Also, i can't seem to find any concrete info on what the 1997 Trans Am with an automatic tranny is from 0-60 and the quarter mile. Best i could find was 5.8 and 14.4, but it doesn't specify if thats automatic or 6-speed. Any ideas which you think it is, or what it would be for an automatic?

I appreciate any info and opinions you guys have! Race will take place within the next two or three weeks, as soon i can replace my fuel sending unit and get a new dyno tune. Will try to get vids!

This is in the wrong section but you will ***** him. It won't even be remotely close.

Not even going to look like a race. He's in the 14s and you should be capable of high 12s.
