While im deployed my brother got himself a stock 03 10th vert. His only mod is a magnaflow catback. my 01 has mgw shifter, or x pipe, jlt. So how do u think i will do? I would say im a better drive. Any suggestions or mods i can do to help me out.

Your going to get walked hard.
I will say you will need full exhaust, gears, intake, tune, tire and a hell of a good driver. Go frim a dig and hope he spins and can't drive.

Quick supercharger install would do the trick. :thumbsup:.
His car will be pushing 400/400 to the wheels with the exhaust you mention.
Going to be hard to make up 120 RWHP even with the weight difference, he will pull you pretty easy.
yea i was hoping i dont get walked to bad. but i guess thats not going to happen
I have had an 01 with alot of mods(bolt on) and I now have an 04 . Unless he somehow forgets how to drive a stick shift and misses 2nd and 3rd and maybe even 4th gears your done.
Your gonna need a 125 shot atleast unless he's just a horrible driver!
Even he's a bad driver, he's still going get you.
well i dont want nitrous cause that will soon be the wifes car. i guess im going to have to pull out the bike. lol
Uh...no one's asked what the race will be like. Dig...I'd say you have a better shot than most will admit too.
A roll.?...yeah, you're ****ed. :lol:

Run from a dig and hope he babies it or misses a couple of gears. Let off at 80 and you might be ahead, barely! Dont run from a roll man, for gods sake dont run from a roll.
nitrous and when you give the cobra to your wife just take it off.
A bone stock terminator vert is nearly a full second faster than your vert. High 12's low 13's compared with high 13's for your car. You'd need most bolt-ons and 4.56 gears to make it a race before he pullies the dam car.
High 12s/low13s for a vert is better than average. We are talking a guy that has owned the car for a few months. high13/low 14s is not 'better than avg' for a new edge.
I do agree with the point you are trying to make, but I disagree with the ET numbers and gap that you are referring too. From a dig, I think OP has a chance, based mostly on lack of seat time. As I said, better chance than most are willing to admit. :beer:
you have a point. It's just the physics of both cars envolved with both drivers being equal. a good driver vs a shitty one will always be an X-factor! From my expierence, the stock 03 vert runs close to a C5 6spd vette. The opt has a vert that weighs over 3600 lbs with driver. That car is going to need more tq or gears to get that mass moving to compete. I agree that from a dig ...it can be somewhat close. Roll racing will almost always go to the car with the better power to weight ratio.
Thanks ponygt65. I know I was going to lose but me thinking im a better driver would play in to my corner.
+1 It's a street race. Anything can happen good luck!:beer:
Shit was funny:lol1:
