i was wondering is any one has ever raced a 98-2002 trans am? i just got my 03 z and i love it glad i got that but i was looking to get a trans am ws6 before i got my z so can anyone tell me how the race goes

 

Getting off to a great start here....we do not advocate street racing here. So I guess what you are asking is did you make the right choice???

 

I've owned quite a few F bodies. The LS1 V8 responds VERY WELL to upgrades too. It's pretty easy to obtain mid to low 12's out of an Ls1 car. My buddies bone stock 01 WS6 Trans-Am 6 speed and ran 13.2's @ 108mph all day long at the track with 2.1 60ft times.

So...assuming you're referring to a drag race: With an 03z, stock to stock, you're probably going to loose a somewhat close race and modified to modified you have no real chance.

Both are sweet cars though!

He didn't mention street racing.

 

U will be ripped a new butt hole!!!!!!!

 

a ws6 would beat you HORRIBLY. I really mean that. My friend has a stock one that runs flat 13's consistently

 

Go race one and find out.

 

SergEK would win.

 

See Sig...

An LS1 is an LS1 is an LS1....... so don't caught up with all of the WS6/SS propaganda (if it were true I would have been running high 13s )

Results may vary slightly (Autos tend to be a tick slower with a few mph less traps) but I've seen WS6, SS, Z28 and Formula Autos running 13.0~13.1 stock before so don't take that to the bank.

 

Only if it was a custom FWD WS6 on a track in Denver and he got E.T.correction factors to your sea level run.

 

^^ haaha

 

Its all about “density attitude.”

 

 

I actually ran a 02 WS6 3x's with my stock 03 Tour about a year and a half ago. I won every time but only because he could launch the car. The first time he spun through 2 gears, the 2nd time he didn't spin but just didn't get out fast enough. The 3rd he spun again. To answer your question, equal drivers, non modded cars, the Z will most likely loose. Not as bad as some of these guys are making it sound though.

 

you need more Nos !!

 

Most importantly, NHRA corrections....

 

13.1 @ 108 on a 2.1 60ft vs ?? Unless we are talking an 07 with Veetec or 350Peak at the wheel it's going to be bad. (equal drivers of course which is why I threw those two in, though I believe both of them to be better than myself.)

 

I own both a 2001 TransAm Ws6 and a 2006 350z and I would have to say the Transam is significantly faster.

 

Why do you think I keep the 100 shot around....for looks?

WS6....the longer you race it, the smaller it will appear, stock for stock
