with gears, you should be able to take an LT1 just fine.

Its gonna be close, hate to say it but if that maro is runnin right and the guy can drive he may have you. But youll prolly jump out to a lead.

Lt1s were 93-97.

nah.. stock for stock, a 99+ GT is on par with an LT1. if he's got them gears and knows how to drive, he'll have that LT1 easily.

Plus that lt1 might not be up to par. My experience with stangs and maros is the stang will get off the line quicker and the maro needs to catch up in time.

< -- agrees w/nanaki... even without the gears... as long as that camaro is stock, that is.. Car is also 9 years old.. I wonder how much of his horsepower is still there?

The age of the car has almost nothing to do with it, unless the car abussed or neglected.

The GT in question is an auto right? We all know that the auto GT's are not as fast as the 5 speeds. The LT1 cars are pretty much the same if they are auto or stick. I honestly think that this one will come down to the drivers
