My brother just bought a 2002 Trans Am, the previous guy put in a built LS3, we went to Tennessee to pick it up. I drove it Saturday and it is really stout!
My brother and I and 2 other buddies all went out to dinner last night and of course on the way to dinner they had to come pick on me.
My brother was first as I figured he wanted to see how his car does......my car is the barometer for most all of our car buddies because I am pretty much the only guy that goes to the track and actually lays down 1/4 mile time. Plus everyone knows what my car runs so we kinda use it as a gauge.
with that being said I run my car at 17-18psi all the time.....as it sits with 93 oct and no alky she runs mid 11's....
My brother pulled next to me from a 30mph roll...as soon as I heard him clutch in and gear down I stabbed it....by the time I spooled was right when he hit it....I jumped a car or so but he was spinning bad......he hit 3rd and hooked and started charging hard! we ran out of space and I lifted....however if we both stayed in it he would have went by. I am really impressed with his car its a screamer!
right after that my buddy with a Roush stage 3 pulls up to me at the next light....he just had his car tuned...it put down 480rwhp and 456 rwtq....its stout...
He looked at me and I just smiled ( he called me out last week...jokingly but it was on FB ...lol)
Anyway I am running regular radials so I did not want to stall cause I would just spin bad.....the light turned green and he hit....I just floor paned it and I rolled the length of my car and the tires went up...he is spinning and so am I all the while I am a full car length ahead.....we got into second and I hooked and he did too....pretty much stayed there...bumped 3rd and lifted....
I like little street pulls like that is a ton of fun......I'm gonna have to do some tuning and bump up the boost to handle my brothers LS LOL!
