Default small victory for my Lt1

well guys i have been pestered for the last 2 weeks about racing another friends fox body stang
he has:
306
trick flow stage 2 cam
1.6 rockers
ported heads(not stock fox heads)
hedders
no cats X-pipe, 2.5" ex.flows
3.55 gears
turbo coupe t5 tranny
drag radials


i am stock m6,autozone clutchand a 6spd shiftin fool w/ K&N cai,true duals and flows
19"c6s with goodyear F1s that dont hook for crap!
so we agree since he has tire we would go from a roll 30mph he is at 3k and 3rd gear, i am in 2nd gear at whopping 1900 and we hit it i pull 1/4 car on him at this time i am waiting for this car to fly by me but no dice.i dragged him by 3 cars
by the 1/4. he searched my car for the spray of course did not find anything.so now he wants to do it heads up from the dig so i will be borrowing a set of Dr's and a 150 shot cause you guys know as well as i do
he will be prepared for our next encounter!
truth of the matter i thought he was gonna mop the floor with me due to his mods, so i never pushed the issue about us racing i just let them gang up on me since i have a sweet 396 going together for my other Z that i know they would not even come close to beating

Good Kill!

And why does everyone swap their LT1 taillights for LS1's? The LT1 lights look badass on an LT1 car!

yeah its funny we chose 30 mph
the gear in the stang is 3.55 and 275/50/15 DRs but the tranny is steeper, geared for a 4cyl super coupe.
i have the stock 3.42s 285/35/19s i could have put it back in 1st but i would have blown the tires away

heads are key for a 302, definitely not a place to try and save money IMO
