Talking Spanked a ricer....with pics!

No this isn't LS1 related. But, it is a chevrolet and involves spanking a ricers ***.

The neon green paint probably adds about 50 hp though. It needs a wing for more down force.

It had a wing! Looked like a bookshelf bolted on the back.

Yeah, but it had the stock hubcaps. That kills about 25 horses. He should have went to Walmart and picked up a set of those plastic spinners. I believe those are good for 30 to the ground.

I'm extremely happy I don't have a car that is so slow I have to occupy myself by looking/smiling at the other car, and taking pictures as we're racing. Were there a bunch of chinese tourists in this car ? (they seem to take pictures of EVERYTHING for those of you who have not noticed)

Nice kill though.

For one..I didn't take the pic. My buddy did. Just happened to have the camera handy from our trip to VA. As for being slow enough to snap pics while racing?..I was busy driving and I wasn't going as fast as I could. He fell on his face after 100 so I didn't need to go much faster to walk away from him. I've had it to 125 several times. While it's no LS1 killer or even competition. It will walk plenty of rice and most non V8 cars on the road around here. And after all, isn't that whats important? When it gets the 96' 3.4 liter 24 valve engine I just aquired and a 150hp shot. It's going 5.0 hunting.

Man, that is a older model Z-24 also. By looking at the digital dash, that got to be a pre-97 model.... I had a 89 and the thing moved to be a little 2.8 until i got owned by a friend who had a beretta with a 3.1..heeh

It's an 88' and the 3.4 I have for it will spank any 3.1 turbo or not.

Exactly! I might get laughed at for driving a cavalier. But, it's a Chevrolet, it spanks rice. Good enough for me.
