Default Street/Strip bench racing thread

In the Street/Strip section it gets really boring sometimes, so I decided to start a O/T thread for this sections loyal members. IE: C6vette,Mr Rogers,98,1bad3v and etc.... We could just post in here and chat since most of the time the street/strip section is boring[>:]

This thread should not bring our personal lives into it ( I broke up with my GF). But more along the lines of ( New cars coming out, or your shi* talking co worker)

Unofficially approved by JD Have fun!

I will let this go untill it becomes out of hand. I don't want just random BS and post whoring in here. Lets at least keep theit about car stuff in general, no girlfriend bs, wife bs or political crap will be allowed. I want you guys to police yourselves on this and if you see any ot O/T post ****** in here being retards let me and I will deal with them. BTW fiad, I changed the title a bit so as not to attract the O/T morons.

So what would a 2007 Mustang GT need to keep up with a 2002 Camaro SS with exhaust and intake?

I test drove a 3.5 Altima SE the other day and that car was damn quick, the CVT trans is pretty cool. I think you will still get him from a dig though.

it should be close depending on drivers, but you will probably take it from a dig because of the DR's...from a roll it's probably him.

I would think a tune, CAI and either gears or dr's. Most stockLS1's run low 13's and the S197 run mid 13's

CVT is amazing. I thought it would be quirky, but it lives up to the hype.

Yesterday I drove a 2002 camaro z28 stripped down model and a 2006 mustang GT manual....through 1st and bottom 2nd the mustang would hang with the maro... At the top of 2nd the maro will start to pull the mustang hard.... Maybe it was a dyno butt feeling, but it sure felt that the camaro has vtec
