C4 -vs- TA

I've got this friend with a 1986 C4 auto with a shift kit, chip, and K&N. I have a 95 TA 6M Stage 3 Clutch, Mac catback, cutopen airbox w/K&N, 1LE elbow, TB airfoil and bypass. He is trying to say his lighter weight C4 will pull him ahead of my LT1, I say after the first 60' it will be over, what do you guys think?

Hmm .... must be a vette thing, because the 'older' man that I might at a set of lights in the summer thought the same thing. You'll definately take him, I had no problems, and our mods are similiar. Make us proud

I have the L98 vettes I have raced. A friend had an 86 (I think) with headers, gears, boltons, etc. We went from a roll and it wasn't pretty.

Ofcourse I am one heck of a driver...j/k

Better make sure he's not on the bottle, or you will more then likely end up paying for some new mods for HIS car

Either way, ya better come back here and let us know how it went!
