Default Stock Ls1 GTO vs Stock 99 T/A

I have friends with both, both are 6-speed and claim that they each have beaten the other in a race vs different people. Which car is actually faster?

Driver's race. T/A has the weight advantage tho.

T/A should win because of weight difference but the 2 cars are so equal i'd call it a drivers race.

The formy should pull decently...unless he's god-awful at driving. I ran a LS1 GTO when my car was just lid/catback and the other guy had a loudmouth, i pulled a few cars on him from 1st through 3rd.

i think the trans am should win due to a lighter weight, but it is really going to go down to the drivers. with my old set up(4.10's) i was beatin ls2 gto like nothing

Due to the wheel hop and heavier weight of the Goat, my calculations predict that the T/A wins by 0.18954 seconds…
