LOL he is prolly getting the Hypertech tuner. You will beat him even worse!
Easy kill.

 

All right guys thanks for all your info....The race is one for Valentines Day, we are betting 200 bucks, I'll post the out come later that day...I hope my friend can video tape it that would be great, but then again thanks!!!

 

He is willing to bet $200?! He is either really stupid or has a trick up his sleeve (maybe nitrous). I would look over his car really good before the race and tell him if he isn't stock or close to it you are not paying up if you lose.

 

I saw his car and there isnt anything in it.....he is one of those big macho types that doesnt know ****....we he first got there he was like I have an LT1 what do you have in your car??? I was like, let race and find out all I have is CAI and Cat back...hes not to bright!!! LOL

 

If that is the case, then take all the money you can from him and embarass his dumb a**! Tell us how it goes.

 

yeah i wouldnt call it "low compression" the B-Body LT1 has about 10.1 stock so it aint that bad. The aluminum headed LT1 has higher compression because it basically needs it due to the aluminum heads shedding power building heat qwiker. Either way i wouldnt take him TOO lightly,its gonna be as close as an LT1 F-Body vs LS1 so it aint an automatic kill.

 

Stock for stock your Camaro should have him by about 1.2 seconds in the 1/4 mile. Add your mods and you should have him by about 1.4 seconds or 14 carlength in the 1/4 with both people driving the cars well. The LS1 and LT1 differ by about .5 seconds in the 1/4 mile stock for stock.

 

no-better yet LS1vsLT1= about 5-7MPH difference.
B-Body vs. F-Body= about 6-8 MPH difference. Each MPH is ROUGHLY 1 tenth. 1 tenth is ROUGHLY 1 carlength

 

A '00 Porsche 911 only weighs 600lbs more

You will win, but he will be faster than most people think.

 

Haha, is this guy serious? Did you check for any sort of well placed NOS bottle or anything like that? I can't believe this guy is serious about racing. If it's stock as you say, then put your $200 towards a set of nice Dynatech or Hooker LT's.

600 lbs. more than what? What are you talking about?

 

Oh this is why I love having a caprice. all you f-body and mustang guys always underestimate me and it's oh so rewarding to see the look on your faces when you get beat by me. i've seen caprices run 14.3-16.4 stock with the LT1. getting one is like playing the lottery. mine ran a 14.6 w/ 2.0 60ft with a tuneup and exhaust cutouts. I ran my buddies '94 Z28 on the street and put a car on him by the time i hit 100, then he started to walk around me. on the highway from a 40 punch, it'd be the same way. so, unless you're doing this at the track and you've got your r/t and 60fts down, i wouldn't count all your chickens until your eggs are hatched. but, if you do it on the street, just remember the line "anything can happen on the street". that's my .02 cents.

 

I'd have to see that to believe it.




Yeah, i've heard of that magical place "the street" where 25 second motorhomes regulary spank down Hyabusas .

 

well, 'ive beaten numerous cars that are "faster" than me, in street races. also, as i stated before i ran a 14.6, that was in St. Louis with very bad DA. i'm sure if i went down south in the winter, i could pull a 14.3 or better.

 

Is that with your 100 shot, or 75 shot?
