02 z28 vs 97z28

I have lower control arms and CAI,long tubes and hyper tech.How does everyone think i will fair with a 02 z28 stock with all leather seats and monson speakers?Do i need DR's to beat him?I ran 13.7 before the long tubes and lower control arms and DR's

Doesnt look like traction will be a problem for you. If you launch good I think you'll get a jump at first, but from there on its going to be a drivers race. Everyone is going to tell you the LS1 is going to be pulling hard in those upper RPMS, so get a great launch. I think your around 13.2-13.4 with those mods. I think the 02 Z/28 with a good driver would be able to pull out those kind of numbers. Both Auto or M6? It will be close, race and lets hear the results.

both A4 i raced him before but just throw the top of 2ed gear 3rd gear my car shut down i had him by a lil more then a car the 1st race this is before the long tubes and lower control arms

I don't know man, his leather seats and Monsoon speakers might do you in. ;)

If you ran a 13.7 with that car you can definitely drive and the mods will only help you further. Let us know what happens.

02's run exceptionally strong...id imagine if you both have a good jump he should pull you in the upper rpms

what do you mean your car shut down in 3rd gear?

I was havin a opti harness prob and sometimes it would pop real bad and i m guessing the harness jumped up and lost connection for a sec and that wasnt good bc then the car started to pop real bad so after the big pop i let out of it

I hope i will let you guys know this weekend i hope i beat him.Hes a lil young punk that his mom and dad got him his car and i wanna teach him what buying you ****s all about

We'll it will be close man, so dont talk to much. Although I never liked the "mommy daddy bought it" mod. Lose some weight too, toss the spare, extra gas, and anything else you dont need. And put some salt bags in his trunk when he isnt looking ;) Good luck, hope you beat him. Heat up those DR's, I think those will give you a lil head start, but keeping its going to be the hard part.

my late production # 01 z runs 13.2 @106 with just a flowpac and a loud mouth , so you better bring your gameface!

You got him definatly. If he was a M6 I'd say it would be close by if he is a stock A4 don't worry.

Just for reference I ran a 1/4 mile with a 02 Auto w/ Corsa and lid. He ran 13.5X to my 14.2 stock. I think it will be close.

But don't forget thats not stock. A lid and catback on a LSx like an 02 would net what, 10 - 15rwhp? So take those off and you got a 13.7 , .8 car.

Exactly my point, this guy could drive too, he cut very good 60's on street tires. Corsa claims at least 14rwhp with their catback alone, and have the graph to prove it. Lids are generally worth about the same as our CAI's. I think he's got a good chance its just with those magical LS1 powers, who knows what will happen. Also he cut 13.7 before the LT's, thats at least another 2 tenths if not 4.

Exactly. So short of his car not running right (rich, lean, bad opti ect) I cannot see why he would loose. Although in street races ANYTHING can happen. Good luck :)

i disagree he has a good chance but it will be very close.. its all who can get off the line..

the 13.7 was before the long tubes and the lower control arms and DR's i was cuting 13.7's with 2.0 60 times.I cant wait to get this on i havnt ran many ls1's at all one had long tubes and catback and ramair so i knew i had no chance so i hit it just to see if i could stick with him a lil and he pulled i was also all stock and ran 14.2's and the other one i pulled on him but i couldnt tell for sure it was also a cop car and had all the cop stuff in the backseat so i m sure that added a few hundred pounds but i didnt get to ask him if he wasnt hiting it really but i could tell he was givin it something bc i was movin
