Wow These car are slow sh it. I just beat the crap at of a new 3.5. Yeah Ok 14.2 1/4 mile big deal . The grand prix is not a piece of rice. Its mean american muscle. Oh buy the way my car is now running a consistant 13.1 at the track. I just beat a brand new Ls1 vette down the track last week and Svt cobra on the street last night.
GTPs are way cool. I like 'em a lot. They're dogs without the S/C though. Still, I would pick it over the competition in a "heartbeat." I just recently started recognizing how fast they are in stock trim and how easily they can be modded. Of course, I attribute that to the S/C.
BTW, I did beat a slightly modded one about a month ago. I lit the tires up all the way through the intersection and managed to pull about 3/4 of a car length.
Yeah, there are several. One ITR with mods, on the street of course. There have been a couple LS1 F-bodies that whooped me. One time I made the mistake of rolling up from behind one. It had "Firebird" written in between the tail lights. I thought it was the usual V6 with SLP Loudmouth exhaust. Wasn't too loud so it fooled me. When went from a 40mph roll and he flew past me like I was in park. I had to find out the hardway that it was a Formula. When I was stock a lightly modded GS-T put 2 on me. A couple months ago a modded out '97 GSX put about 2 on me from a 50 roll. Here in Houston, there are races galore to be had. Sometimes when I'm bored I'll just cruise up and down in front of my neighborhood looking for races. That's not to say I race in my neighborhood. I'm talking about the road that runs in front of my neighborhood, it's actually a highway. Again, not to be confused with a freeway. This highway has a speed limit of like 60mph and perfectly spaced lights to race. Within 10 minutes I usually find a race to cure my boredom. Next time you cruise to Houston let me know. I'm getting OT...
You know what I mean when I post "car length." I believe the accepted distance is like 12 or 15 feet, or something close. Keep in mind that my Club Cab is only 1.5 inches shorter than a Suburban.

So whats the Stillen Supercharged Maxima Running these days ??? That would be a better comparison , than comparing a Supercharged V6 car to a 4cyl. car ...... Sure it is going to be quicker , Duh !!!!!
YES! I know of a couple GTP's in the 12's and a view in LOW LOW 13's... Of course we're talking about a stock vette. NOT z06. Many c5's break 12's, many dont. So basically I am considering all GTP's that run LOW 13's and 12's. Fastest being mid-12's.

lol, he never said stock, stock gtp's run low 15's-mid 14's if i remember correctly.. Put a pulley, exhaust and whatever other bolt-ons they make for them, and 13's are there for the taking...
