Another reason why Chevy owner's are idiots
Ok, I was sitting in 2nd period, talkin to this Chevy guy. I started to explain about the race between Sky and the GTX. This moron, then proceeded to tell me that his dad's 71 Nova would SMOKE Sky's Saleen. He says it's a stock 350 with factory 4 barrel and dual exhaust, with a 3 speed manual. He said it traped 117 in the 1/4 on street tires O also apparently the 71 Nova only weights 2300 pounds, that's why it's soooo fast

If this Nova was stripped down pretty good, it's possible that it could weight 2300lbs. Not likely, but possible.
Not all Chevy owners are idiots. In Fact, I'm a Chevy owner. Course, it's a 4x4 and I think it's slower than crap.... |

I am 15 years old and whenever i wear my ford racing shirt that says losers wear bowties even though i have friends that are chevy people that start to argue with me like how fast a ls1 is stock. No mustang ever can beat a Z28 or SS or WS6 or formula. I know there fast i saw a near bone stock formula run a 12.8 at the track on his first time driving at the track but that is a factory freak. There are some itiots that are chevy people that are like nothign can beat a chevy etc. like are old post about the SS stock dynoing at 369hp at crown ford. But as we saw saturday night he didnt show. Every car make has its itiots its life, but in my point and no offense to anyone but the people around here are chevy and import morons.

SkarodoM...Back off man. This is a Mustang website. MOST of us are FORD enthusiasts. First of all, I'm sure tireburner163 really thinks that ALL Chevy owners are idiots. Riiiiiiiiiiiiight... You have to realize not everything everyone says is meant literally. burner was just a little ticked at this Chevy kid for being a moron.
Everyone just needs to relax. |

2300 lbs sounds interesting to me. I guess I've just never seen anyone leave their motor completely stock while they lighten up the car by over 1000 lbs. I might believe that weight for a Chevy II style Nova racecar...

"What you type is taken for face value", eh? Well, a little common sense can override that face value. I'm not flaming you, I know you have common sense. I was just telling you to calm down and back off because it's not a big deal. |

Someone needs to GET TO THE TRACK.....and pay atention.
Novas usually are fast cause of there weight. A guy named Gary Hollifield that I know has a Nova that ways about 2500 lbs and runs a 12.6 @110 @3000ft with a mildly built 327 with good gearing and an auto with a 5000 stall. So in other words this guy would probably beat SKYMAN motor to motor @sealevel. There is a reason why nearly ever Nova ever made is now a drag car. They are light and a Chevy V8 drops right in there. Many, Many a 10 second Nova over here. Skymans car is sweet and really fast but please dont think a 12.54 is invincable. IMO, blanket statements are always stupid.
