I have a 1993 Z28 all stock and my friend has a 94 caddy STS with exhaust, intake, Z rated opp. He says he could beat me in a 1/4 race I'v road in it and it feel really powerful!! It barks 2 gear like a race car! But so dose mine. I'm worred about once we get going it seems like when he hits 100+ it will never stop pulling!!

Re: ?????

If you can shift into "1" on the gear seletor, then you have a 3.23 gear ratio, if you can't you have 2.73 gears

I assume this was on a regular street.....if it was, I hope you at least made sure you knew the road really well and there wasn't much traffic out there. Because 130 on the street is a little.....well......excessive.

I've raced to 90 on the street and that's even pretty scary.

Damn I wish we had something like that around here.......the closest real drag strip is like two hours away......an empty airstrip would be perfect.

Our closest strip, about 1 hour away, was made from an abandoned airstrip. Kinda funny.
