How well can my stock 2002 Z28, 6 speed, hold off a Lightning? I used to have one, but never really raced it. Being lower to the ground makes it harder to judge. How do you guys fair against one?

 

well my friends dad has a lightning running 13 flats and from a 60mph roll on highway to 100 my LT1 stayed dead even with him...

if that helps

his truck case u care to look

 

It's usually a pretty close race from what I've seen... Some Lightnings are pretty quick so watch out...

 

Stock vs. stock ... it will be a good race which comes down to driver skill and factory freaks.

 

I've raced a couple fairly stock ones at the track. They generally rip me outta the hole, but I have always caught up at the 1/8th mile or so. They don't put out good trap speeds, and are generally about as aerodynamic as a brick at speed.
