GSX vs. T/A

[HiImBrian]

First off I'm not a huge racer or anything. But I will take part in racing events/get togethers.

Well my buddy has a Trans Am and he likes to talk big. So we decided to run our cars tonight. We hit up a long flat road with practically no cars. I've got a gsx so i crushed him on the launch and stayed in front up to 80mph. I think this is a pretty sweet story, considering a tiny little turboed 4cyl took a beefed up v8. anyways, theres muscle vs. import for ya. haha

Great.

LS1 or LT1 or older?

There is nothing like an AWD launch to put Trans Am, Camaros, Mustangs to shamehttp://dsmstyle.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif

Yep too bad they can catch up and win as well.......?

It all depends on an almost infinite amount of factors.

You can make generalizations, but they are only generaly correct at very best.

I took a LT1 before in my old car with a slipping clutch. The random person flagging asked if I wanted a head a few lengths. I didn't need that...

I have plenty of story's "racing" misc cars in your car. :) It pulls strong, Shifts unlike any other DSM I have driven. Could use a little bit of a stronger clutch IMO. Throw a FMIC on there and see what she can do. Have you shortened the shifter yet? Previous owner didn't mind the huge dildo shifter.

Already talking like a long time Cobra owner. Pretty soon you will be saying that the only 'real' racing is from a roll.:rolleyes:

Nice race, but a video would be even better.
