[QUOTE="Sticks n Stones, post: 12470649, member: 97753"] You must have a bunch of clueless types in GTO's around you. It's dead simple to get them to hook if you research it, especially the auto's like mine. My 265 series Dunlop Star Specs work better on the street then the track (autocross tire, stiff sidewall) but still got me into the 1.6 60' range at a barely prepped track. Have yet to have anything beat me to 60mph and I've raced some pretty serious cars. I have come across alot of GTO owners who are modded and still running the craptastic stock tires or autozone specials. Just like I met a guy at Discount Tire once that had a old IROC and was stressed because no one carried the stock tires for it anymore. He said they "were specially designed for this car and no other tire will perform as well on it". :lol1: To the question now: I think GTO could eke out a win, but it really depends on the accuracy of the dyno numbers in question: those seem low for a KB Cobra even at that low a psi. ?? Just to be sure you win evil6.0, make sure you delay the start as long as possible after he warms his tires up. let that heat soak right into his blower :D:coolman: [/QUOTE]
