A friend has one and he races all the civics and such just for chits and giggles. Although if i was going to get a V10...it would either be a BMW M6 or a Viper

Racr350 Penfield New York, US Chief Mechanic	I have a story...I dont know about all of you but i love to see a spo-com embarass an american muscle. I dont know how much i can brag but i rolled up along a `78 Vette that looked like it was beautifuly taken care of or it had been resotred recently. Well as i roll up to him and stop at a light, i looked into the car and it was a kid about my age. So of course he's gonna start acting all racey and rev that 185hp 350 he's got under the hood . As soon as that light turned green he mashed that gas pedal(guessing automatic) and took off. I let him get a couple car lengths on me off the bat, but then jumped on it and spun the tires all the way through 1st, halfway through 2nd and chirped into 3rd(Thank You Pulley!) and got by him without any trouble. I love telling this story to friends cuz they dont realize how slow late 80's Corvettes were. So thats my Story on how i beat a car with twice my cylinders. -BearZ Rules!

gre_v1 Bethel Park Pennsylvania, US Master Mechanic	Probably a '78, my buddy used to have a '74 Stingray with the 350, but it only had 195 hp stock.

That just seems odd, I have a 73 Chevy C10 (pickup) with a 307 (Carmro engine) that had 196hp and 205lb, I know it's possible but it seems odd that a 69' Carmro engine would have more power than a Vette. Please note: I'm not doubting him I'm just in shock. 307s were not known to be all that powerful. Mac and iPhone/iPod help!

gre_v1 Bethel Park Pennsylvania, US Master Mechanic	I know that it seems odd, but it is not at the same time. lol. I believe they didn't plan for the Camaro to be faster than the Vette obviously, but it just turned out that way and I'm glad it did. haha.

SoFloTC Boca Raton Florida, US Godlike Advisor	when im just cruisin the 2nd to 3rd is pretty bad.. it just keeps building boost and rpms go high then when it finally shifts feels like i got hit in the back and was shoved lol teach me the tricks at the track with the auto. did. how did u burn the rubber like that and were u brake boosting on the take off?

[#] Jun 02, 2008 04:29pm
trdmaster Northridge California, US Detailer	just let go of the gas, let the RPM drop and slam the gas again, its easy, and pealing out is easy too, brake boost -=RS2 Scion XtC=- I drink gasoline and fart carbon monoxide.
