Well i live about 45 minutes away from the commerce/atlanta dragway so we could go there. I think my car will win easily because we have raced the same people and they all have said that i've put twice as many lengths on them as he did.

The Monte is probably really fast because its more arodinamicand weighs about the samethan your Camullet. And 460 hp from a smallblock happens all the time.

If you wanna beat him, you have to do a neutrol drop-start. TH350/400 is fine with that, and is the same as a manual with a clutch. You do this, and it's all over and you win the prize. All the money I've won is because of the neutrol drop-start, and as long as you don't have slicks, your gonna be good to go.

Another little-known trick is to remove your air filter to free up hp. Good luck and let us BowTie homeys know youve done us proud.

HA! a camullet? mullets are business in the front and party in the back and camaros are all business just ask any ford guy they spend enough time looking at the back to know. by the way just tell the guy to take it to the track he sounds like he's full of BS and when it comes time to put up or shutup his true colors will come out.....just make sure you're safe about racing!!!

So I finally got a chance to race him yesterday from a dead stop. I got him off the line and put about 2 cars on him then i shifted to second and let off to let him catch up and i walked him all the way down our little strip with everyone watching. And i also ran againt an s2000 that my buddy beat in his ls1 camaro. Igot the s2000 off the line pretty good and he justnever caught up because i never let off. So thoses were2 good kills i think.
