Well, let's not forget those speed demons over at EscortUnderground.org.

I swear, every car in every sig has an unpainted body kit on it.

But it wasn't enough, I got the blower for it, then things started breaking.

But what a ride!!!!
Z28 was factory with the 305 and special order with the 350 but primarily had to have an IROC package. Was it an IROC?

keep up with? you should be killing all mustangs except for the cobra like you said (if that counts) or saleen and foxbodies and earlier that are done up right. even the fox bodies shouldnt give you much of a challenge unless it has some serious work done to it. camaros eat up mustangs for breakfast stock vs stock.

oh yea and OLT is right tha only way a camaro came with a 350tpi is if it was an iroc.

Nope it was a black w/ red stripes 1992 Z28 anniversary edit, 350 4spd auto delete t-top option, I called it the "Fat Elvis" of camaros, cause of the wing and all the ground effects.
They are rare but still out there, I cant find my VIN but it was an option code, the code was mainly for the highway patrol.
Chevy lost the IROC name to Dodge in 90 (hence why 90' is the last Iroc Z to get)
~~Remember those Dodge Daytona IROCS with the crazy fast lotus headed turbo 4.....those are real rare!!!~~

you guys have to remember that the majority of car owners cant drive for shat nor will they ever get to the performance numbers produced by professional drivers. that 6.9 second 0-60 is probably more like 7.5 for most drivers. the sc series is an understated sport coupe with minimal for performance, but with the right setup and driver can do some damage. also whoever said that a honda cant do 120... they will do well more than that. hondas are only gear and drag limited, so whatever gearing they make will show how fast they go... try 153 in a honda del sol in 5th gear at 8k with 1.5k rpm to go (fully built ofcoarse). IMO... why race unless you know you have enough ***** to beat something worthwhile. saying you beat anything sub 220 hp should be rediculed, save the gas for something worthwhile.

they had me from about 0-70ish then i pulled, I raced both at the same time and took out both so either they didn't know what they were doing or the SC is faster. All I have is exhaust so nothing really.

I walk by bolt on 350z's (exhaust, intake, etc) all day long on the highway on stock boost. They only trap 95mph ish, every stock 1JZ should trap around 100mph
