Default 02 Camaro SS vs 02 Trans Am

Couple of us Lsx guys were hanging out joking around flipping each other **** which led onto us racing each other lol my buddy has a 02 Trans Am NHRA edition pretty much stock beside slp lid its a m6 3.42 car. My car is a 02 Camaro SS SLP car so also has slp lid and slp dual dual cat back besides the factory mods i also have drag radials which is why we did a 40mph roll so with our stock turds traction wouldnt be a factor.

Can your buddy drive worth a ****? If so, this should dispel some of the myths that "most modern cars won't have different build tolerances and power discrepancies" bullshit up in here! Ha bitches! Nice run man, that SS is stout.

A trans am will always lose to an SS given equal mods and drivers. Talking about a 3400 lb car versus a 3600 lb car.

My z28 weighed 3400 full weight, friend's ws6 trans am weighed 3665.

From seats(talking 50-100 lb difference combined from just this) to exterior body panels and so on... it all adds up.
