Default Trans Am vs Ls2 Gto

Hey, So i was just cruising around last night when I came up on a Ls2 GTO... We paced each other at about 20mph and hit it at the exact same time. through the rest of first I pulled maybe a few feet, and when i Shifted into second I prolly gained a half a car or so. Then we had to slow down for cars up ahead, but I think with more room i would have pulled more on him.

His car was stock i am sure and i think a auto. My car is a bonestock 99 trans am m6. I also had one passenger and he had no one in his car.

Actually he probably would have pulled back at higher speeds.

My experience to your runs are similar. Ask me how I know. My ws-6 will pull my gto a car in ever gear up to fourth expcept 1st. The TA only gets about a half car in first and that's with a perfect launch on both cars. D3's on the ta and BF gd KWD's on the goat. I've raced another stock A4 06 GTO with the ta with similar results. I only wished the ta had the ls2, it really is a superior engine, with much better low end response. Anyway my point is m6>auto unless always unless auto is stalled.
