A good friend at my old job had one. I raced him leaving the office many times. He never won, not against my Trans Am or my Mustang. All show, no go, those things are are snail-slow.

Oh and I'll take cash, check, paypal for my $100 if you fail......

Haha, yea. It would be all me if I lost. Only problem I see as of now is my switch from 2nd to 3rd. It has seen better days thanks to the previous owner.

I beat one with my LT1 C4 years ago and even though it's an auto with a 2.59, it wasn't even close. Barring some crazy mods, I honestly don't think you have much to worry about.

I think it's funny what everyones thinking of fast is... When someone says it's fast I say... compared to... what a Geo Metro, then yes it's fast but thats about it.

Anyways...

You will walk his ***, just don't miss a shift or something..

He definately should kick the crap out of him for sure BUT, if they go from a dig, I've seen many MANY people make 14 second passes with 12 second capability.........

Forgot to add. Win or lose, there will be videos posted. I'm not ashamed of getting beat. There is someone always faster then you are. As what I go by.
