[QUOTE="Sinister04L, post: 496369, member: 8435"] Very interesting thread. Here's my 2 cents.... First off, the V6 Camaro would be a much better match with the 96-98 GT's, since they are the biggest turds to ever wear the GT badge (no flame, just stating the facts). Buddy of mine had a V6 Camaro that ran 14.6 @ 94mph with only a K&N. He could drive the piss out of it though. I also hung with a 96 GT on the highway in my mother's bone stock Grand Prix GT. Yes MPH CAN be an indicator of a car's potential, but not necessarily. If a car has a monster top end (ie big turbo, big cubes, etc) or a combination of cam/heads/intake that produce big top end power, the car will probably have a good trap speed. BUT, if it's not that fast through the 1/8, and really only comes on after that point, they can still get drug by a car running several mph slower through the 1/4 but puts the power down evenly throughout. It's only a 1/4 mile race, and usually I'd pick the car with the better MPH as the "fastest car" with the "most potential" but it's just not always the case. If I had to choose between a V6 Camaro or a 94-95 GT, I'd take the GT all the way, because it's faster stock and has way more potential (even though they took out the forged pistons and put in the hyperpuketectics).
