Wasn't this just discussed??

You should have him no problem, providing you don't screw up the launch or any shifts .

If you don't win that you should sell your car and never again associate yourself with this website or anything F-body.

Your '02 has PLENTY of power to beat your friend, just make sure you drive right.

I was at Barnes & Noble and just happened to pick up a Ford mag. that did an article on the new Shelby GT-H (I think) and they raced it and ran a 13.9.

The best part about it was at the track, there was a photo of it parked next to a NBM LS1 T/A and the caption read, "Yes, we got spanked by the LS1 T/A..."

the 07 gt's are nothing to write home about. my buddy has one and refuses to race anybody, and any other one i try to hunt down on the road just goes nto ricer mode and weaves thru traffic and turns off all the sudden. yeah my cars more modded than yours but they dont know that. i guess they felt the wrath of a ls1 already

I raced an automatic one at the track and he ran 13.50's all day long. Sounded stock and on street tires. With both of you guys being manual its gonna be about who can launch it better.

Think about this ...

...during a Solo Sprint event at our local track (Mosport International Speedway) my '02 Z28 was pulling ~220 km/h (~136 mph) up the back stretch, while my instructor's '06 GT was only pulling about ~205 (~127 mph).

We all know that speed = power . And in this case, he was a FAR better driver than me (1 min, 38 secs, vs. 1 min 48 secs) so his driving CLEARLY made up where his car lacked in power!! I'd love to know what my car would do with a good driver and Hoosier racing slicks like his GT had??

i think i remember that post. you should have called his bluff and said "ok, ill follow you to your place, lets go get it"

and if he really had one.... tell him to races your friends car and call someone up
