98 camaro vs. 90 talon??


90_EAGLE_TALON

Recommended Posts

I just have a quick question on how fast a stock 1998 camaro is. It is the 3.8L V6 and there is no modifacations done to it. This is a friends car and he swears it will beat a 90 eagle talon 2.0L DOHC non turbo. His car is also an autmatic transmission and mine is a 5 speed. What is the verdict? Who would win the talon or the camaro?

Yo man. Bench racing sucks. Race him for real. And if you stomp all over him. I've got a 1 gallon for you. Just kidding :)

 

But I had a 2001 V6 Automatic K&N/Flowmasters/FREEAIRMOD/3.42 gear (Special from factor) and i ran a 15.4 (I had never dragged before) . I've seen stock 3.8's (The engine has not changed) go mid 15's. Anthony went 15.7 and he will be the first to tell you hes not great with a stick.

 

Your car on the other hand would only run 16's . Automatic for some people is a life saver because a non shifter is worst then a automatic by far. but from what i can find 16.4's-17's

That n/a time 15.915 is really impressive, slower topspeed and near the same 60ft time as mine, and yet 0.4s faster time Very Happy

 

What mods have you done to that n/a laser? And did you use street tires or race slicks?

I ran the Laser N/T with street tires. It is actually a circle track stock car I race (you can see stock cars in the backround of the pic) The car has exhaust routed out under the passanger door, got a bigger exhaust manifold off a junkyard Hyundai Elantra Confused It has no interior or glass in it with a roll cage. Ran the car for fun a few weeks ago. Ran 6 thenths faster then it used to.

 

So you i don't think have a fighting chance.

 

So there is my impressions
