A friend of mine bought a badass car, a 2002 Trans Am ws6 auto.
we raced a few times with completely different results each time, none of which i won, but did i expect to win? lol NO!
We went from a dead stop and i spun them real bad and he had me by 3 car lengths at 95mph before he let off. Second attempt was worse because i just couldnt get the tires to hook up, but the 3rd time however ... we punched it from a 10mph roll and i hooked up and got a nose on him and stayed right next to him till 75mph till he let off .. i think the difference was i powershifted 1-2 and 2-3 and i usually granny shift, does powershifting help that much???, needless to say if we had gone faster he would have started pull, but for god's sake .. he has 75 or so more rwhp!!! What does a stock 2002 ws6 auto turn in the 1/4 anyway???
well after that the next day i went over to frdspeed to have my timing checked out (thanks joe!) ... and turns out my harmonic balancer is wobbling around real bad ... and to think i was almost turning 7000rpms powershifting on a harmonic balancer that was floppin around!!! .. better get that fixed asap!!!
