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.

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

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.
