i dunno what year z28 is but, seems like its the latest z28, i dunno what he have done to his car, only thing he said was "exhaust" which i think is bull shit... DAMN he smoked my ass... i think there was more to it then just the exhaust...
we started off of 10~15mph, and both floored at the same time, up to like end of 2nd gear, i was like half a car behind him, and from then on... damn... he was GONE! o and my mod is 04 type s rbc, cai, 2.5"hytech, custom 2.5" exhaust, kpro for powering mods... DAMN that shit was QUICK!!! he's my neighbor... ganna go check out his car to see what the hell he gone done to his car next time i have a chance...
yea we went at it twice and i got smoked both times haha

what? NO. good fucking lord a 3shittyZ is no where near capable of being anywhere near an LS1. and btw an LT1 would wipe the floor with both cars, the LS1 would beat you in reverse.
I just wanna be really clear on this so the next time your going to post and you choose two cars to try and compare, you stop, and just punch yourself in the balls instead and save me the trouble.

Z28's have gone 12's stock
I don't think a ~3500lb car (not counting driver) with ~300 whp is doing 12's unless its on slicks.
Edit: Maybe not slicks but definitely some kind of tire upgrade and a well prepped track. Anyway point is that mid 13's are the norm for a stock Z28.

Kinda like how a stock rsx-s is capable and has done high 14's. But is a low 15's car for the norm.

I could pull up 10 or articles showing that it runs mid-13's on average but I'd rather not waste any more of my time. Can you find even one more publication claiming that time?

Didn't see anyone claiming that the RSX runs a certain time but yeah that's the idea. I'm not here to say that the RSX is so great at drag racing or anything, I'm just tired of people quoting the best possible time they've seen on the internets when talking about 1/4 mile.

Dude, I don't care what magazine published it, the point is that its just one test.
I didn't say that their results were inaccurate, I just said it was an exception rather than the rule. Most LS1 Z28's are going to be in the mid 13s with the better drivers hitting low 13s. The vast majority of test data supports this conclusion.

I will admit that I was wrong about needing slicks but the exceptional traction requirement is still correct, which is why most Z28s are in the mid-13s.

say it with me i know you can, DRIVER MOD. :shakehead so lets say
I beat a car that runs low 10s down the 1/4. I run 11.89@114. So if I beat that car does that mean I can go around bragging how I beat the driver? No it doesnt, it means im a better driver an should shut my cum catcher because IT SHOULD RAPE ME. the ls1 camaros are a 12 second car driven properly at the end of the day. doesnt matter if its the norm or not. Who cares about driver, what does the CAR DO is what matters. Whatt if I beat a f1 car around a track and shit.......I BEAT ONE GUYS!!!!!!!!! No? Why would anyone try to justify so much on what a crappy driver did. Is it because it makes it that much closer to what an rsx S does? Do you have to try to play up that midlowish 13s what it normally does to make yourself feel better? Anyone can be a better or worse driver, how about you discuss thats what the car does an stop basing stuff based on subpar drivers. Its like the shmucks that cant get into the 14s stock in their rsx-s. Its really not 15 second car, its 14s but because idiots cant drive it that way should we just classify your car as 15s???? I personally think your argument is pretty stupid, you are just trying to drag a much faster car down because your car stock isnt doing it, so the closer you pull it to your time the better it makes you feel of what the rsx S stock or anything else.

I personally think your argument is pretty stupid, you are just trying to drag a much faster car down because your car stock isnt doing it, so the closer you pull it to your time the better it makes you feel of what the rsx S stock or anything else.
Your argument would make sense if I was talking about average times for the Camaro vs once-in-a-blue-moon best times for the RSX, but I'm not so thanks for trolling.

Ummmm.....Thats the obvious which is why i was saying its dumb that you keep trying to prove. Do us all a favor and prove that gravity is real and jump off a bridge.
you still need to be convinced gravity is real? :ugh:

No, it doesn't.
Your argument makes a craptastic assumption that the driver is 100% in control of all factors that affect the performance of the car. Even the greatest driver in the world won't make 12s in a stock Camaro with poorly prepped track and I don't know anyone that controls the weather, we all just hope for the best.
Therefore it only makes sense to make statements regarding the average cases rather than the extremes.

:run: . That statement alone shows me your lack of knowledge about racing and cars in general. Just for the record, loss #1 was doubting 12's are possible. Loss #2 was claiming we all were saying 12's are the norm. I'm done.

The same conditions that make it impossible for a F-body to run 12's also make it impossible for an -S to run 14's :dontknow:

I didn't twist anything around. You implied it:
the ls1 camaros are a 12 second car driven properly at the end of the day. doesnt matter if its the norm or not.
You offer no other factors to contribute to a 12 second time and continually emphasize "DRIVER MOD" so this says to me that it is all up to the driver. It's not my fault you didn't elaborate.

For the last time, I am talking about the stock configuration only. Never once did I argue the capability of a modded Camaro.

I already agreed with you on #1 but I never said that everyone claimed 12s are the norm. I said there is ONE post that says the car can run 12s and simply offered additional information which you agreed with.

You did actually twist it but alright. Your perception owns everyones in this thread:coffee: I shouldnt have to elaborate if you want to talk cars with people with real car knowledge maybe you should bring some to the table before you talk it with other people an get confused. We all know what were talking about in this thread, its you that doesnt.

My perception is based on what is explicitly stated in the thread. Nothing more, nothing less.
The only thing I am arguing with you is what defines a car as an X-second car. My position that it is the average case while you are saying it is the best case. All I'm saying is that since best case varies dependent upon many uncontrollable factors, the average case is more accurate when applying it to all cars of that particular make/year/model.

actually, most of the quickest stock C5 vettes/GTOs/F-bodies are A4s....
the GM 4L60E/4L65E is FAR superior to anything Ford put in the mustang until the 5R55E 5-speed in the 05 and up cars.
all stock, the automatic cars are usually very close to the stick cars in terms of 1/4 mile ET, though with a lower trap speed obviously....

I still went in the 12s with that car though with just a 3200 stall and headers. the 3.42 swap really woke it up though....

I know a few guys that can REALLY drive a 6-speed f-body.
one guy went 12.37 @ 113 with an '02 WS6....only mods were a loudmouth, lid, drag radials and no front swaybar.
I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen him do it in person.

my buddy has an 03 ws6 (trans am) that has the ls1. auto.
he ran it 13.60 bone stock.
he had an older formula before that had the lt in it and went 14.3 . . . then he did a rear mount turbo and ran 14.4 because he went on street tires.
hahaha
his ls1 though is a beast.

98 formula would have still been an ls1 and ran similar times to the 02.

the drop top is more rare i believe. his formula was t tops and he always had them off so the convertible works for him i guess.

he can dump it straight to the ground.

he builds show cars.
he has many trophies to back up why he has airbags on that car.
the way i look at the airbags are. . . if you cant get over a bump . . lift it up.
especially where we live. its nice to be able to go up and down.
