Beating an SS or WS6 with a stock GT to 130 will almost never happen. They will definitely outmuscle you once the torque multiplication stops in 4th gear(3rd-auto). I remember reading a comparison between the 99 GT and 99 Z28 and the thing that freaked me out the most was the time it took the GT to reach 130 vs the Z28. The Z28 hit 130 in a full 11 seconds faster than the GT. They are not 11 seconds faster in the 1/4 so you figure out where it happened. I agree with the person that said to the 1/8th because the GT simply has much better gearing multiplying the torque. Race an ss with an auto(3.06 1st) and converter and you will be killed in both ends of the 1/8th.
