LOL when i got to 125 which is the end of my speedo he was still pullin crazy like 10 cars up ahead. i thought my car was fast and could beat 4 cylinders. i got all the basic bolt ons. but wow. i probably need to get a shot of nos........ oh ya i forgot to mention i had 2 other people in my car but still..... it was like duct tape and butt rape.... i dont think me alone plus nos would of helped lol..
First problem was racing from 70 mph. Slow that **** down and get more into your powerband instead of theirs.

I took a guy in a turbo Acura in my stock TBSS in the 1/8th. I seriously doubt I would have from a 70 punch.

I never bashed people that race their cars. I bashed the fact that this guy has a near stock v6 firebird and came on here just to tell us that he lost against a rsx. So he drives a slow car that lost to another slow car? who gives a ****.

I used to have a 96' Firebird (3.8L) before I got my 00' Trans Am. Had that car for 4 and a half years and bought it right before my senior year of highschool.. and although in retro spec I realize how incredibly slow that car was compared to my TA... u have a many MANY more ppl that try to race you when you own a V6 cause its a lot closer to how fast many cars on the road are.

With the Trans Am... this is no longer an issue lol.
