Its hilarious when it comes to the typical S2K guys. Some of them swear they are the fastest things around.

I had a buddy that had one. Intake/Exhaust, Tune. Wants to race my GTO back when I had it. He thought it was going to be a good race, that he would prob take me.

We must have raced about 6 or 7 times and I put countless embarassing car lengths on him. They have like 50 ft lb torque. lol

I weigh 3,800 lbs with me. A quick google search says they weigh in around 3,250 + 200 lb driver = 3,450# So 350# difference. My 100+ rwhp should have no issues overcoming that I would think. I agree, I think the dig will be interesting due to traction on my behalf. But the roll *should* be pretty one sided

Thanks for the props guys! I'm excited to race something decently matched finally! Think the s2000 guy went to counseling for this lolz

I raced an s2k once... Even my slow poke put buses on him! Have no idea what he had but he had a full body kit on it so I thought he would have had something under the hood! needless to say I was disappointed

Don't try to calculate ****.

Your GTO will spank the vette. Torque still dominates in this day and age.

s2k's are badass cars for the roadcourse, but straightline they are unimpressive. Although one of the guys local to me has a turbo s2k making 550-600whp on e85. I think I'll do a-ok

I havent had an issue with any torque monsters in my "torqueless" v8 .


And Cwarta... should be no contest. If that vette even hangs with you... back to the drawing board.
