Somewhat of a call for assistance...
 

Why are the guys that are supposed to be our bretheren in the struggle for speed...have to talk ****?

I got a buddy at school who just spent 9 grand on a 98 Z28. Apparently, its got a lot of SLP upgrades...However it seems as though its lacking stuff where it really counts, and hes just got power upgrades...nothing else.

As far as I can tell hes just got most bolt-ons...loud mouth and all that jazz...Id say its a low-mid 12 second car maybe? Not sure on the specs in full.

Anyways...all he does is talk **** to my roommate about how he "is going to **** all over me" when he brings his camaro down. Mind you hes from a mountainous area in PA. I'm just posting up to see if I can get him to get to a track, be it englishtown, island, or atco...if any of you guys would be down to show him his car isn't god's gift to speed.

I know a lot of you guys are always down for a good race so let me know.

I'll tow his ass into a field. then we'll see who's number one! :lol:

:rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
hmm I know we have some ten second cars over hear

if its a bolt on only 98 car its more likely a mid to high 12 second car......especially if its on stock rear/street tires

and ill run him for ya

get taht torque arm we were talking about and some practice at the track. once you have some runs and some more data logging update your tuning, consider a little bit of gear, and **** on him.

Ill race him ( i wont actually race) for fun I need a base line to start with..O wait the cars getting worked on now!

you gotta learn to drive first junior!!

He probably has a "3/4 race cam" and titanium muffler bearings. Doosh.

yeah? if my car was home Id tape a burn out :laugh:

How about just being old enough to drive??? :)

thats better then I dont get so offended :D

1100 HP Chevelle Vs 98 Bolt on LS1 u tell me

bolt on 99 ls1 vs bolt on 98.....

oops i forgot to mention a couple litttle things

but who's gonna tow you out?????????? :razz:

he said a field, not a little puddle... :-D

ohhhhhhhh ::::low blow:::::

:rofl: just a few ;)

Update:

Apparently, he is claiming the engine has got some work to it...he says its got head work with a new valvetrain, crank and pistons...

however its got the stock rear end in it. 6 speed. may have 3.42s or 3.73s...

the engine/gears are apparently the only not stock things in the vehicle...the stock LS1 apparently was blown up...and this engine is the replacement. don't know how true it holds up. he got the car for 9 grand...seems a bit cheap for a worked LS1.

Yea Tim I'm definitely going to get the torque arm as my next mod. However datalogging is going to be key now...as Jon and I tuned this thing with a couple of exhaust leaks pre-02. Now its acting a hair funny...seems just a tad under powered too.

ill be up in may and im ALWAYS up for a good race......how much cash he got??? lol

i'll race him with an import 4cyl...

paul, leave the bike home. :wink: :lol:
