Default 98 Trans am 408ci vs 11 Camaro with Wipple+Meth vs 240sx w/RB26 swap

All vids were taking from my Trans am. Keep in mind all these runs were performed on an unprepped track , No tree, had a flagger, and no times displayed only the win light. Pretty much legal street racing.

Nice run. Now you need some nitrous or boost for that 408 but you still have a beast of an NA car for sure.

Nitrous with your current setup is going to be even nastier. Your car is pretty sick already.

I am hoping for low 10's maybe crack a 9 in the quarter. Then I am done cause I dont want to redo the cage and what ever else I might need. Trying to keep this car streetable as possible and the 6 point cage I have now is sometimes a pain in the *** getting in and out of the car constantly and the clutch is wearing me out haha.

No you have to press a button on the go pro to turn it on. Just have to do some editing
