Default Raced a Red LT1 Formula.
Like i said raced a Red LT1 Pontiac Formula. Looked and sounded very stock. On Bake parkway in the city of lake forest. Didn't get the plate #'s, does it belong to anyone on here?


The race was from the dig at the stop light, i was holding back off the launch and still spun the tire. He handed me a good loss, I would have probably beat him with a working posi, 3.73's, and a RAIIS intake. only 1 way to find out right???

I was surprised that i was keeping up so well for a 141k miles, and that crappy trans. The seafoam freed up alot of power.

ya its a all around great car. but you have better MPG's in your Vette. so dont expect anything over 17 street.

if u plan on getting one just get a cop car for a G, and turn it into an impala clone, save yourself the money.
