two nights ago I was on my way to work when a newer grand prix pulls up next to me..it was completly stock and i was not expecting a race...light goes green and he floors it, so i floor the gas and pop the clutch...catch up to him through first, try to go into second and it won't go, so I slam second and get up to his back bumper...try to find third and third won't go in either, so i try fourth and fifth and can't get in any of them...look up and see hazards on the grand prix...grind the hell out of third before deciding to give up and coast into a gas station...take my foot off the clutch and the pedal is on the floor...

turns out my clutch fluid was beyond low... luckily i had some in my cay and filled it up...I must have a slow leak, I have gone around 85 miles in the car since then and the fluid is still full...

I guess it got to the breaking point and sucked air....still need to bleed the line as well...

That sucks! :frown: Those Pontiacs are fast. I was at the drag strip, and there was one there that was stock and running mid 14s

If it has a GTP badge watch out they can be mean... if it says GT.... most of you should not worry... I dont worry a single bit if a GT Grand prix tries to race me.



GT-200hp

GTP-supercharged 240 hp

this one had to be no better then a base model... i mean considering that I couldn't get it into second and then after finally getting it in I still caught him, I am really sure it's not a gtp......

I think base base models even came with a 3.1 or a 3.4....
