3.4L vs 3.8L Battle
Well today on my way home from school I was in the highway and doing about 65 and I pass this really nice red 96' Camaro RS (BTW I didn’t even think about racing him) Anyways as soon as he saw me next to him he step on the gas and by the time I step on it he was already 2 cars ahead well I follow him from behind because only the fast lane was free but I was catching slowly to him but I didn’t have chance to change lane. And finally the road was all free so I move to the outside lane and him on the inside one and the middle was free too and we where doing about 90 at that point and about 110 I got a about 1 1/2 cars ahead of him but I had to stop because there were cars ahead. Anyways I pass him and that what counts

And this is the first time that I race with open cutout so maybe that help me alittle

well if you raced on about a 20 foot track you'd win. in my old, old 3.4, the green one, i raced my friends 3.8. since 3.4s have 3.23 gears as opposed to the 3.8's 3.08s (unless its a Y87) the 3.4 will get it off the line.

I don’t think I will beat a 3.8L in 1/4 Mile but I haven’t been at the track in so long so I don’t know what my car is running now. (D*** I remember does days at the track that was Fun!)
But in this case i beat him when we were already at high speed.

my friend has a 3.4 firebird and it is pretty even but im always that little bit ahead and it just grows but i think the biggest difference is that i have a stick and he has an automatic.
