Default What happened?

Ok to make a long story short...My bro had a 02 SS camaro. I have stage 3. Well when he first got the car...it was stock...I killed him. Now he has drag radials,long tube headers, a 3:90 gear ratio, and true dual exhaust, also a 75 dry shot of nitrous. Well we raced again sort of really we were just messing around. So we were side by side coming to a stop about 25 mph. We both hit itand only got to about 85 mph. And to my total amazement he was right beside me. I couldn't pull on him at all. And he swears that he "DID NOT" spray the nitrous. What Happened? Just looking for some thoughts about what happened.

i can definetly see a good race with the bottle. without it there's no way he should beat you. assuming of course that your car is in good running order and boosting properly.

I think even a 50shot would make it a good race. Gearing when it come to Tran's Am's and Camero's make huge differences. Just hope he doesn't add a nice cam and head combo then you will have trouble

my cousin has a TA and put lower than stock gearing in it so he accelerates like a ****!!!! that car is fast jack....but his top end suffers greatly because of it....also the v-8s fight for traction while we are leaving them in dust...

try racing him out of a dig....I've seen a bone stock WS6(auto)run a 13.8.....while most srts out there run low 14s while stock.Not saying we can't be in the 13s but its pretty hard....I think we are the ones fighting for traction!!!
