i was actually wondering what you guys thought about a race between a 97 trans am lt1 with only a cut out, moroso intake and 150 shot of nos with slicks against my 99 camaro ss with long tube headers, off rd y pipe, magnaflow catback, lid, airfilter, bellow, 160 thermostat, tr 224/224 cam with springs, rods. and i have bf goodrich drag radials on the back. however, it is not tuned so it is still with the stock computer tuning. the race will take place on a 10mph roll. oh yea, both cars are m6. who do you think will win?? give any input as to what your thoughts are... thanks alot

It's a close race, I'll say the LT1 since I'm biased

I think if the LT1 gets a good launch, and uses the spray effectively and has good bottle pressure.. he'll edge you out by 1-2 cars to 100.

Good Luck,

I would say the LT1 too if he is anywhere near a good driver. Good luck anyway.

my friend with the trans am just raced an 03 cobra that has only a chip,x pipe and flowmaster cat back. he was able to win by a bumper and this was also on a 10mph roll. i am supposed to race the ta sometime this week. what are your impressions now that he raced that 03 cobra? if i do it from a dead stop do i have a shot? or should i race him from a roll? give me any input please. also, if i am doing it from a stop, where do i launch at? what psi do i put on my bf drag radials???

chill

i would go from a launch, since you have dr's... depending on how long the race is will depend if he catches you with the spray... it just depends but no matter how much i love the ls1's, that lt1 would prob most likely take you from a roll... let us know what happens

You're probably a low/mid 12's car (probably mid 12's).
He's coming down from high 13's (if he's a good driver) to low/mid 12's with his 150 shot.

It should be a close race, with him taking the lead in 2nd, and you retaking the lead after the 3-4 shift.

WhiteSS, are you the guy who dropped a lifter during the cam swap? Is the guy with the TA called Sparky?

whitecamaross

yea that is me and him that are going to race. it is gonna be a nice one to see and it will probably happen soon. however i am gonna race another car first. i am going to race a 01 vette, automatic with a 2800 stall torque converter, shorties, borla cat back, holley intake, 342s gears. from a roll. this will happen tonight if it doesnt rain. whats your take on that??

Dude, you just posted that somewhere else!

You should be able to take the Vette, not by too much, but you'll edge out a carlength or 2.

Hey, so nobody asks me to race them??? Am I chopped liver?

Oh, you're biased...
