Hi I am andy, and I am from Clover Va. and yes it is as small as it sounds. I am a litte intrested in road and autocross races. This is the only F-body site dedicated to such racing I have found so I joined. I have a green 95 3.4L v6 firebird. Yes, yes, I know V6 and all that other V8 BS but is it a fun and CHEAP car. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) It is mostly stock at the moment with only a cold air intake and 245/50/16 BFG KDWS's all around. I am expecting to run into a good amount of money in the comming year and I plan to put a good amount of that into the car and go have some fun at the tracks. :drive:

As a 3.42 geared automatic, it ran 16.30's @ 86, as a 3.23 geared 5 speed, it ran 15.49 @ 93.8. I had installed a stock 350 TPI cam in it, and a Dynomax CVX exhaust kit with no cat and a K&N and a Hypertech stage 2 with a 160 thermostat (chip was in it when I bought it), Underdrive pulleys, 1LE driveshaft, eibach pro kit, KYB rear shocks, Monroe fronts (college, I was poor....actually, things haven't changed much (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/huh.gif) ). I was at 500 feet altitude (Mason Dixon dragway in Hagerstown, MD). I suspect it should have been faster than it was....but it wasn't.

I put a full cage in it, a 22 gallon cell, braided lines, Griffin radiator, ST 36/25 (I think) bars, Ground control kit with 1000 in lb front and 225 in lb rears and built a splayed main cap, solid roller, 353 chevy for it, Harwood hood, Baer brakes, etc. Then, as I was nearly done, I sold the whole thing? (really dumb move). So, it would have been faster at the end. That motor is in a friends 92 TPI car with 3.73's and a T56 and it will spin the tires in 2nd gear from a roll without being floored. It's great fun!

I only ran 14.04 @ 102.5 in my 2002 Z (1.09 light, 2.6 60 foot and a 14.04@102.5). I babied it (I hadn't mailed the first payment yet). That was at National trails in Kirkersville OH (Home of the pontiac excitement nationals) at SLP day in 2002. Of course, that was my first and only pass in this car and it was a really easy pass....

Oh, and the GTI went 15.10@94.8.
