This weekend I did have one short race that I guess is worth mentioning. I was out cruisin on Sat and pulled up next to a 88 GTA Trans Am. I looked over and there was a guy w/ I am guessing his gf. As i listen I get confused cause I thought I heard a small whine but I wasnt sure. We look and nod so on green I go for it. He doesnt hit it at all so I am half way down the block before I stop. As we cruise down my heart starts to pump as we start to slow down. At the next light I stop w/ him and we wait for it to turn red. I think, "wow, this is gonna be good. He is going to be a good challenge." He looks over and wants to know "if I wanna run???" I say sure and we wait now for green. On green we take off. I think, crap I am squeeling too much only to realize that he is spinning like crazy and I have a good start. That torque must have gotten away from him. I immediately have a one car lead and as we take off, pull on him to about one and a half to two cars. We then pull into a gas station to talk and he was a cool guy. I find out that it was the 88 GTA Trans Am w/ only Flowmasters which did sound pretty good. Unfortunately he had plans to rice it out and ruin a classic. Carbon fiber hood, wings, etc. I was really disappointed by it but to everyone their own.

Anyone have specs on this car??? If he didnt spin could he have taken me w/ a good driver???
Thanks.

 

Not exactly sure... but I think its pretty much a drivers race. Good runs.

 

good run. nice win. theyre a formidable opponent.

 

Yeah, a good opponent w/ the critical good driver mod... hahahahahaha

 

Nice run, this was worth mentioning.

 

is yours an auto or 5spd?

 

five speed

 

Nice win!

now you need some gears and nitrous. then he'll become a spec in your rear view mirror.

 

Was it a 305TPI or a 350TPI?

Either way, good kill. Both the 305TPI & 350TPI are extremely torquey motors.
