I don't know how or why but my buddy's got a 96 LT1 5.7L Camaro with exhaust,ram air and other goodies.Its an Automatic but it still hauls. We started at about 40mph from an on ramp and went.His tranny must have not shifted to the right gear or something becuse I pulled away, 7500rpm in each gear(perfect shifts) and he finally caught up at 100mph. Whatever the case, I Flippin' won!!! This time around anyways. My RX doesn't even have a street port!!Imagine the possibilities!!

He was toying with you... most likely, ive driven wayyyyyy to many 93+ z28's to know how they pull compared to an NA rx7

Plain and simple: It's an automatic! Trust me on it since I drive a V8 auto Camaro everyday. They are good off the line in auto form but other then that they suck arse crack. Especially after 60MPH and they are heavy ass cars to boot. Still cool though. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png I'm more so just venting on Chevrolet and how crappy their auto transmissions are.

Yeah I have to go to the track and see what I run in the 1/4 mile.Our cars sound pretty nasty together. If I really wanna blow em' away I need a turbo or street port or both.
