H/C TA vs. 363 ci Fox vs. R1
Cars: 3klipse's Trans am.. He'll chime in with a more accurate mods list but from what I know it has 243 heads (untouched) Donkey Dick cam (242/248 110 LSA .620/.620ish lift), LS6 intake, 85mm MAF and TB, on street tires and 10 bolt with 4.10's. Stock T56 with LS7 clutch. Put down 423/382 i believe. On Nitto street tires (not DR's)
Fox: 363ci dart iron block, Trickflow 225 heads, Trickflow intake, 23x/24x 110 lsa cam with unknown lift, all bolt ons obviously, stock 8.8 with 4.11's, G force T5. Full weight car, on Kumho street tires. Put down 440ish to the wheels for horsepower, low 400's torque I believe.
R1: Micron slip-on, stock sprockets, rider (me) that cannot get used to the trans to save his life.
We lined up at 60 on the freeway, TA in 2nd, Fox in 3rd I believe, R1 in 1st. I wait for them to take off and I give chase. I pulled a stupid wheelie and tried to nail 2nd really quick but hit neutral instead because I'm a dumbass, so both cars jumped out a car on me. I finally get 2nd and kinda sorta leave them, as expected. They ran to 130 I believe, the fox getting out about 3 cars out on the TA. I shut down at the top of 3rd (135) About 2 buslengths out. Hopefully 3klipse will chime in with a little more accurate info.
All races were done in Mexico.

Both cars were on street tires and I wouldn't be surprised if they both spun a little bit. I know 3klipses car spins like there's no tomorrow.

I am 3klipse ( you forgot I am AznMuscle here, nub).
The race with the r1 slaughtering us, I was in 2nd, about 50 on my speedo, and I spun in 2nd and wheel hop'd/spun going into 3rd. He got maybe 3.5-4 cars on that one.
Our first race was 40-110/120 mph, and the fox got out on me by 2.5-3 cars.

Realized the mistake after I cracked the throttle.. Oh well, kept it shiny side up and made my kill all the more entertaining. And bouncing limiter wouldn't cause me to die, it would actually bring it back down faster.. Just FYI..

It's nice to hear about a well-built fox-body out playing around. Still, a dart block for that kind of power is way way way overkill. Maybe he just wanted the extra 16 cubic inches, but more than likely he's got bigger plans. I'd like to hear about them.
