From a dig: You win.
From a roll: I wouldn't bet on anyone.

Your 3.73s, the difficulty in launching goats, and his IRS all work against him. Just keep it below 120, and I'd say you've got it in the bag!

Only if you want to ruin the transmission, blow the rearend, separate a trans mount, or scatter a u-joint.
What year is the GTO? 2004 had the LS1, which would make it even more interesting for you.

Put it in 1st and load it up against the converter...

...push the brake down with your left foot and rev it (right foot) as high as you can go without breaking the tires loose or creeping...

On "green" or "go" or "arm drop" or whatever, take left foot off of brake pedal and smash right foot gas pedal to the floor... run the RPM as high as you feel comfortable and slap it into 2nd, etc...
