  • I am SO getting tired of my 6

    Ok, I know, I haven't done much to it yet. That's besides the point. Tonight, my wife and I were on our way to base to work out, and I pulled up to a stoplight next to a pre-'97 z28. I didn't even bother, so he had to show off. He jetted out in front of me and got in front of us. Well, he slowed down to below the sped limit, and when I went to pass him, he took off and made me look like I was standing still :mad: Fast forward about an hour. We're pulling up to the light to get off base, and in the lane next to us, are two '98+ z28s. I really don't bother at all this time, taking my sweet time getting up to 45. Of course, there's a gap between the z28 and me, so the other one jumps infront of me, and they proceed to have at it with each other. I feel so slow now. Geeze. It's not fair. The only thing that is keeping me going is my deployment for four months next year ($6,000+ extra all for the maro). I'll be needing some ideas if anyone would like to help me in the performance area (I'd prefer to keep it n/a, but if you all feel a super/turbo would be better, let me know). Thanks for listening to my rant all! [img]graemlins/rock.gif[/img]

    Well, honestly I don't even bother anymore.

    Also, if I had a wife... I wouldn't do anything stupid w/ her in the car.

            No, I didn't do anything with her in the car. All I tried to do was pass the first person in the z28 going to base because he was going slower than the speed limit. then he took off and I guess you could also say "put me in my place"

                Shrug I had a guy try to race me with 2 of my friends in my car and his gf in his car, some random z28. I finally raced him for a bit... he won of course. Pull up next to him to tell him it was a six he refused to look over at me and then ground the hell out of a gear trying to downshift to leave me again. So I left him in the dust and turned lol.

                  hey, 12second, what have you done if you don't mind me asking? I was looking at GM3800 powerpack from supersixmotorsports, an agressive street cam, higher lift rocker arms, ignition, full exhaust, and I guess a few other things that I can't think of right now. Or maybe a super

                      i was just saying your sig says n/a et & mph: 14.077, 94.57 mph which will beat a stock or even slightly modded lt1

                      then it says nitrous et & mph: 12.191 spinning, 110.95 mph here your probably giving ls1 corvettes a run for their money

                              well i dont know much about corvettes just that there fast but i know and ls1 in a camaro runs like 13s so i figured maybe a corvette would run high 12s - low 13s? like i said i dont know much about them.

                              What about an ls6 corvette?
