Both cars look good but i think i like your brothers better cause it's lower and SOM. I even like it with the plain hood, might be cause i still have mine plain. Used to it i guess

Ram Air and metalic blue FTMFW! It's exactly what I was planning on buying before I got the best deal I've ever heard of on my Z28.

get yourself a set of E.T. streets and go race him again lol. or better yet, cam it and walk all over his ***

i am a big fan of som, but yours looks better due to the hood. both are very nice cars tho.. congrats

Oh that's pretty cool that you and your broh have identical cars....now let me pitch you a story....I'm really a identical twin but sadly my broh has no interest in F-body's , or any cars for that matter so looks like we will never have similar cars but I"m not going to lie that is some competition between you guys .

Yea, I am buying an LS6 intake manifold and goin down to force fed performance next month to get a tune, I'm hoping to gain about 30hp at the wheels give or take 5hp. I'll race him again and see if I can't keep him from hangin with me nose to nose like before. I also have an slp lid and ported throttle body since we raced.
