The Camaro, the mach 1, the chevelle, and the SRT4 are the only potentionally good races. I think you would easily beat the rest, your car is a stick right?
Forgot about the stealth, that is probably pretty quick, those years run a low 14

Popular Mechanics got a 12.98 for a Stealth, but trapping only 99 mph. Guess they can launch like crazy with AWD and LSD on both front and rear. So watch out if you go from a dig.

yeah.. the stealth, if it is in fact an rt tt, that'll give you a nice run. especially if he bought a $150 boost controller.

i can also see the srt-4 giving you some trouble, if he knows how to drive. are you auto or manual?

The Camaro will most likley beat you, the Stealth and the SRT should be a good race. The rest you should beat, however this is assuming the cars are all realativly

----my GT is an auto

The Stealth is a RT TT, and it does have the boost contol, one of my buddies has it.

The one that I really want to smoke is the Chevelle, the guys been workin on it 4 a while and now hes got it restored and all i have been hearing is "rustang this and 5.slow that" and i want to show this guy what a stang will do.

also forgot one, 1968 Dodge Dart Swinger with a 350 engine and a auto tranny
thanks

chevelle is hard to tell, I've seen them run anywhere from high 14 to 10's, depending on mods and traction. Chances are if he is on street tires he will have a hard time getting off the line. If he is on drag radials or slicks, he will more then likely take you.

But on a car that old it's hard to tell, because very few are stock.

SS there are just a few things that could decide that race, I know a guy that has one just like that with an auto and it chokes hard, like 16's on a good day.
SRT-4, Don't hold back on the thing, give it hell. I've watched two of them race on the strip and one was always running high 13's it was stock
Mach-1, same as the Chevelle, it depends on a couple things, tires, driver, shape of motor.
Legacy, no one else mentioned this but I think it'll give you a run for your money. I've seen one guy at the track with like a 97 impreza wagon really stupid looking one but he kept within 2-3 car lenths of mustangs camaro's etc. But im not sure if those have the stock "baby" sized turbo's on them or not.
Stealth, I think the dude will beat you if he drives it right.
Z28, im not familiar with camaro's at all, i don't remember if those came with the 6 or the 8 in them. JD1969 said it would so im assuming it has the 8.

Everything else don't even worry about them. Either way give them all hell, represent the stang. And make sure they know you have a 4.6 and to stop saying 5.Slow.
