Default 93 z28 vs turbo beetle

i was drivin to meet a few friends at buffalo wild wings when a turbo beetle started tryin to race. We caught a stopllight and he said he wanted a roll, he claimed he was deadly from a roll. So we went from a 50 punch, from 50-70 i had him be 2 cars, easy. He claimed he ran 14.9, but im stock, and i slaughtered him, so i doubt it

I assume you mean the new style rebodied Golf Beetle as opposed to the original with it's air cooled, **** mounted engine? As the Beetle I believe still holds the record for the fastest 4 cylinder car in the 1/4 mile.

Pretty sure the Turbo Manual runs like 15.9 stock in the 1/4...
