Default S vs Trans AM

To make a story short, we basically did 3 runs 2 rolling from highway (short runs because of traffic) at about maybe 60. These 2 times I would edge him about 1/4 of a car everytime I shifted. But the runs are defenitely 2 short to draw conclusions.

The 3rd run we did it rolling from 1st at about 20 miles. From first to second my tires were nothing but smoke so he jumped me about 1/2 car. This was a long run so at the end of the run I edged him out about almost 1/2 a car and was still pulling on him, however, we shut it down.

Now I did notice some letter on the right side of his rear bumper that said something like WS6 but yet I couldnt make them out through my tint. The letters were defenitely red though.

Do you know if that was LT1 or LS1 T/A?

What is your HP/TQ or track time?

I won't say you didn't beat that TA, but it is hard to belive you were able to beat 300+ RWHP/300+ RWTQ vehicle.

I had no problem dispatching S2000 with my 2000 SS, it wasn't even close, as matter of fact.

I havent had no problems running SS before. I can tell those apart easily by looking for the SS on the fenders. this TA i couldnt tell what it was though. I have run at least 3 SS before over the summer w/ about the same results. Look for previous posts of me.

And like HJZ said, that was my hp when I dynoed in very humid hot environment back in the summer. So in this cold weather im expecting a bit more power to the wheels.

But I have no clue if that was a LT1 or LS1, how do you tell them apart?

Don't be a tool, ok?

I've seen people putting pics of a wishful thinking as their avatar. So avatars don't mean shit to me.

If I posted that I beat 1000 RWHP car without listing my times, dyno numbers and mods what will happen? It will generate all kinds of questions.

So, if thread starter posted his mods, ET, or dyno numbers, he won't get asked questions like mine.

And that is why I said you're a newb because you're not familiar with other cars and members on here. Am I wrong?
