Why do GTO's not want to race me?? (or not want to race you?)

where will you do 180? in a very limited amount of places but you sure as hell can roll to 100 almost anywhere and when you get pulled on you know you are slower

Age has NOTHING to do with the car.. SlowSho is 19, and his mom bought his car for him.. who cares


the 3 GTO owners i asked to race were 22, 19, and (forgot... younger though)

1 was auto.. 2 were manual.

I raced one of the new GTOs the other day, bone stock against my 06 ss/sc. The GTO was off of the show room flood, friend of mine works at that dealership. I only have exhaust and intake and he took me fairly well. I didn't get super embarrassingly beat down though. It was fun as ****, I did get the jump on him off the line tho. That reason there is why I stick to racing cars that are similar in class to mine. Also wheel hop = ouch...i need a torque damper.

your right it has nothing to do with the car.. but the reality is that most 19-25 year olds cannot afford a $35,000 car..

and median age directly effects maturity level demonstrated by their owners

That is the difference between you and the people i race.


THEY WANT TO STREET RACe.. you might not.. but that is what they want to do.... And to turn down a race up here, doesnt happen very often. since most of the kids are rich and dont care about gas money


since when is a LS1 GTO $35k???
