well, i'm thinking depending on what speed you race up to you'll get the jump on him and he'll play catch up assuming he doesn't blow anything up
If you lose console yourself with the knowledge you don't own a V6 camaro
Of, course you don't want to lose because then you'd have to hear that horribly unpleasant GM V6 exhaust noise!

His car is a low 16 high 15 second car off he juice I imagine he could pull off a low 14 on the juice.

Looking at your mods you better be able drive very well.

I used to have a 96 V6 firebid 5 speed and it was as fast as a 96 GT.

Yea im sure im gonna kill this guy. My dad races a 72 charger and has been teaching me how to shift properly and all that. AND this guy uses the spray like once ONCE A DAY and when he installed it he didnt replace the pistin rings....I no nothing about nitrous and even i know that your suppose to do that. So his POS V6 is is just a worn out automatic. Ill be putting another notch on my belt soon.

Once a day??? That's not gonna hurt anything. I know people who use it 4 or 5 times a day. No big deal. Nitrous is not the devil.

Replace the pistons rings???.....ummmmmmm....no.

They're 200hp cars. I think they run 15's stock, with a 100hp shot he could dip into the 13's with a track near sea leval (unlike Dark's track which is at like 4,000 ft above sea level). I wouldn't be so cocky if I were you.

dammmn josh, anybody who's seen F&F knows that the piston rings are what matters on a car with nawwwz yo!

Kid (sorry you seem really young) if the car is tuned right, it can spray until the bottle pressure drops and he runs out of gas without an issue. You should be careful

Your such a idiot......that's only if you have TWO bottles of spray.......big ones.

As long as you have a lap top and the ability to type on it whey racing, you'll be ok with the stock pistons rings.

I think he will beat you out of the hole and possibly the 1/8th after that you should be passing him. I say it would be a good race. Good luck!

Default I agree with srv1

Without any track times or really anything else to go on, I think it will be close. Each of you may have 200-250 hp at the flywheel in 3000 lb + cars.

Let us know how it comes out (good or bad).

I think alot of you guys are thinking of the 3.4L camaro which made 160hp this one has the 3.8L which makes 200hp add 100 for the juice and maybe 15 in other mods and his making 315hp at the crank figure 20% loss or so because of the auto and he is still making 250rwhp just to much for the stang to over come, the stang may get him out of the hole if he is a good driver but up top he won't be able to hold him off.
