My buddy has a silvy SS stock, and my Lightning is stock accept a K&N Drop in.

My psp cold air should be in hopefully sometime

he is coming to town friday.

he bet me a hundread bucks that he could smoke me.

the only pheasable response i could think up was this

 

LOL and start thinking on what you are going to do with your $100 profit. New iridium or Brisk plugs, perhaps?

 

sounds like you get to buy beer for the night cause he's gonna be broke!!!

 

Get the money up front.. And don't street race!

 

Pride comes before the fall. Have fun with your hundred bucks!

And yes, take it to the track.

just get a good launch. have you practiced launching at all? cause last time i was at the track, i ran a 14.2 because i could not stop spinning off the line. backed it up on the next run with a 12.88. just don't get overzealous and light them up. otherwise, you will be part of the way there for a pulley. after you beat him the first time, tell him you will go double or nothing for a second run.

oh yeah, get a neutral third party to hold the money before the race.

 

You should smoke him easily....up the ante!

 

Depending on how much you trust this guy, it wouldnt hurt to look under the hood and make sure he's "stock". Look for the ole N20.

 

I wouldn't worry about the launch. Even a 14.2 will beat that sled.

 

make sure he isn't running a Turbo, then they are Crazzy!!!



Turbo SS

 

I dont know man, I think it'll be a closer race. What year is your Lightning, and what year is the SS? I had a hard time in my Lightning racing a friend of mines SS. But then again it maybe wasnt as stock as this SS. He had full exhaust, intake and slicks.
It took me a 4#er and a chip to catch back up to him. And even after that he still got me a few times. Those SS's and ws6's are quick even stock. Good luck man, hope you see an extra $100 in your pocket.

Shane, with you mentioning WS6, I guess your thinking he's talking about a Camaro SS. I think he's talking about a Silverado SS (truck).

 

I was about to chime in too and re-read the original post. When I first read it I thought he meant 'silver' SS. Re-read, I understood what he meant.

Yeah, he's thinking it's a Camaro. If that was the case, I agree with him. Stock LS1s are pretty stout.

 

Silvy SS =Silvarado SS

his truck 2003 Silvarado SS Red
Mine 2002 SVT Lightning

 

If you feel like a nice road trip to settle this, theres a couple of us AR guys going to a track in Russellville Sat nite I think. Just thought Id throw out an invite.
