im just messing with you , i dont expect 100$ but dont be surprised if you dont get into the 13's , id at least get some drags , my friend ran 14.4 with stage 2, intake and stock tires , and im pretty much at sea level 500 feet , so i dont see 19 in pirellis gripping too good

na he does now though, the only pointers i can give is , your car is gonna wheel hop like crazy , unless you put some really nice dot compound tires so therefore get some tires, and seriously dont worry about the 100 i was just trying to prove the point that you will never hit 13's with 19 inch rims on a stage 2 pulley , unless you have full exhaust and nitrous all you will do is spin

The fastest stock GTO went 12.79 with I belive a 1.8 or 1.9 60ft, what kind of 60ft were you running with the Drag radials?
someone pulled a 1.8 60' on stock tires with IRS???? I find that very hard to believe. not doubting YOUR credibility, just doubting it was on stock rubber or somebody lied.


I just wish gto's/terminators came with solid axles. **** the twisties i wanna rip outta the hole. i'd probably sell my car and buy an ls2 gto if it had a solid rear to tell you the truth. Just put a paper bag over it when i go out in public.

there are guys on here running MUCH better than that with their stage 2.

you already know this, but the reason that people on here dont take kindly to your presence is simply because you cant just be nice to someone, unless they kiss up to you or put their belly face up in the air. if someone clearly puts you in your place, you just come back with childish insults. i even catch myself dropping to your level sometimes, its pathetic. im not sure how old you are, and i dont really care, but you need to stop acting like a testosterone pumped kid. you can disagree with someone, but there is a mature way to do it, and then there is your way.
not that you care...

It's like a dude who has a large ***** getting into an argument with another dude who has a smaller *****....the guy with the larger ***** is always going to win but the dude with the smaller ***** can defend it by saying he can take enlargement pills or use the pump to make it larger....he can try and try all he wants to get that big *****.....only it'll never happen because he'll always have the smaller *****.

My dick is the biggest!!

Anyway I see these traps and stuff on the stock GTO, I swear I ran one @ the track, yes it was a 6.0 and we were pretty much dead heat. He trapped like 104 or something. IDK maybe bad driver?

not to be a nitpicker or an *******, but you think gto's are selling almost brand spanking new for 10k less than msrp for no reason?

umm its an 05 thats why , 06's are 2 years old and there going for 28 with 4k miles , i mean yea you can find a new one maybe for 29 k if there are any left , why are they selling 04 mach 1's with 900 miles for 21,000 thats the real question and why are there so many with under 1000 miles

somebody is touchy, maybe i struck a nerve? i'd love to see a mach 1 for 21k with 900 miles on it and nobody said anything about the mach 1. They are selling for exactly what they should be selling for due to depreciation, actually even better. I have no issue with how much my car costs and i would be very comfortable racing absolutely any gto with the same amount of money invested total, and i'd be comfortable enough to fall asleep racing your gto.

You: "there is a reason so many people are selling their cobalts"

my logic: gto's are all over the place for really cheap and they got discontinued because they were very unsuccessful. I personally like them, but they weren't exactly a hit. try being a reasonable person and look at how stupid your argument is

hold on ill draw it out for you-



oh and btw an ls2 will pull a stock mach 1, but an ls1 is a very close race in a gto.

i can find an 04 mach with under 1k for 21 , why cant i find an 04 GTO for 21k with under 1000 miles , secondly , GTO's are hitting nornal depreciation in states with legit weather , i mean sure if your in MN or MI there gonna be cheaper but come out to TX and buy a gto and there normal prices , the normal going rate for a 06 GTO with under 6K miles is anywhere from 27-30 and 05's are around 3K cheaper depending on the dealer and milage i can find you TONS of 06's with well over 10,000 where they still want 28 , 29 yet in MN you can STILL get a brand new one for 28
