Yea, be prepared to be schooled. I mean hell, race him, just don't put any money on it. If you were talking smack, I would stop it now...

Why is he picking on you? Find a friend who owns a sportbike and return the favor.

X-Cross. Challenge the driver not the car.

go get a Zex dry kit with a 75 shot and you will have a much better chance.

I agree but the SS is no slouch at auto-x either. Don't forget the SS was moved up from BS to AS this year! In the right hands the SS can be a very fast auto-xer. Of course, most people who buy them buy them for the straight line fun and don't have a clue how to brake or turn. Most of them.

I think i will end up racing him for fun. ONCE again, i wasn't talking smack at all! Some dude with a 600+ HP supra set us up....

but i guess it wouldn't hurt to just race him and see where i stand...

Good attitude. Most kids don't have it. Good luck and be safe!

An 01-02 SS, with the LS6 intake manifold, will typically dyno between 310-320 at the rear wheels in stock form.

I raced one and there is no way you have a chance from the dig, or from a roll. They are much faster.
