Since his dad is an accomplished driver, he might need 900 rwhp to compensate.

Some cars are just faster than others. It doesn't really mean anything. Your ZL1 can handle most of the daily driver cars at any strip. Just go there and have fun crushing Mustangs.

This is going on all over camaro 5. So many people posting that have never done it...seen it..or drove it.

O.P. your car certainly wins in looks. that is a sweet looking Camaro!!

CrazyRED · 07-10-2015, 07:42 PM

I read through this whole post and only one person mentioned nitrous, why is everybody so afraid of the laughing gas?

You wanna win with bolt ons? Go get a cold air intake, a set of long tube headers with offroad pipes and cutouts, a ported throttle body, a tune, a set of good drag tires, a set of skinnies, a good set of front and rear suspension for drag racing, a good torque arm, a hefty shot of nitrous, and pray your clutch and rear end hold together.

However, if you're on a budget and have to win... spray, spray, spray!!! Get a window switch so you don't spray off the line and smoke your tires.

I had a very good friend in Jacksonville Florida that sprayed a 1986 Dodge Omni and ran low 11's with nothing else done. He made over 20 passes at Gainesville Raceway that I witnessed and more street passes than I can count and didn't break. I'm pretty sure you can spray ur dad for a couple of track passes.

If that's not possible due to your pride, modify the bet to even the playing field, and remember that hp numbers are nice. Don't forget about torque. But right now you're putting your car's quite good features against your Dad's car's excellent features

Lol... A built motor, bolt ons and maybe e85 (plus more boost) will do it.
