Also, I dont think it will take to much to beat the new camaro V6's. Raced my friend and he only beat me about one car length at 100 mph. Now that I have duals and will have a few more mods I'll be lineing up against him again real soon

Something I have noticed with the Race on my sixxer, (not sure if yours is a 5 speed?).
But my auto redlines in 4th gear (I'm assuming the auto's only have 4 gears? I'm cartarded..) between 80-95 WOT, I'm too scared to push it past that..
Although on the performance, it makes it to around 100 before redline (WOT).
if I'm accelerating slower I can stay in lower RPMs all the way up to 120.

Yeah O/D is off by deafault. Maybe I just hit the end of my 4th gear, and always back off the accelerator before I hit that last gear..
in that case, does the car top out at 119 still? Or does it go higher with the tune?

I've had success against Lexus IS250s, what I suspect to have been a base model Chrysler 300 and a late model BMW 3 series (I didn't get the model, but I assume it was the 328 and not the 335)
My mods are 91 performance tune with intake and a single GT takeoff muffler.
i suspect another easy win would be an AUTO RX-8, the Manuals may be more difficult with 230hp, but the torque is sitting at only 159.
As far as the 93 race tune goes, I was using it as a daily driver in bumper to bumper traffic, city and highway 60km a day with no issues feeling like it was too much. I only switched to 91 performance cause gas prices have gone up again and I never got a 91 Race tune.

If you are beating the new RS, I definitely tip my hat to you.
