i had a chance with a caprice and dont know why i beat it but he pulled up next to me and i started foward faster and he pulled up to me so i just droped it a gear and took off to see where things will go and he tryed to keep up but i was gone...yeah i know short and lame but hey i beat a so called cop car....lol

 

they were heavy as hell and did come in a V6 version too

 

well he must have had the v6...i didnt pay attention on what all you have in your car.....but i have an actual 95 caprice police edition cruiser(ya know full blown police package lt1, hell it even has hooker headers on it i though that was sweet) in my garage. and i raced a freind of mine in his 98 gtp....he said i took him cuz he didnt have traction, but hell i started to light them up as i took off also. i was pullin on him and i didnt even have it mashed all the way down. so yeah the v8s can pull very hard for being a big car. its loaner from my g/fs old boss...he wants a grand for it...im gonna offer 500. but anyways...either way good kill. but watch em...their quick

lol yeah the police ones are i know that those lt1 are no joke theyll get goin real quick!!!

 

He's a lying sack of ****. I've driven a dozen GTPs from 97-99 and they all had traction control.

 

actually traction control CAN be turned off though...simple flick of a switch

 

yeah i was really worn out from work so i was typing fast to get to bed. i forgot....it was slightly wet out(just enough to spin em on any car). and yes they do lose some of there traction with the traction control on,not enough to determine a race. he wants a rematch when its totally dry out. but right now the caprice cant be drivin. so no hes not a lying sack of ****.....did he lose either way...yup and he will lose again....YES...LOL.



james

 

any GTP would smmmmoke a protege. END of story.

 

yes a n/a protege will lose to a gtp hands down. ive done it many times losing to my friend in his(always race him even though i know im gonna lose) the part about the gtp came into play when i used it to compare how fast the caprices are. he smoked the caprice in his protege...highly unlikely unless it was the v6 or the guy wasnt racing. i was pulin on my friends gtp in the caprice.....a turbo protege though would hang very well with a gtp.


james

 

true, very true.

 

Yeah, but what the **** kind of idiot would turn it off if they're racing??

 

language please.... ....however to answer your question...the same idiots that street race...although in a road race turning off traction control can help getting around corners...plus tractiuon control isnt going to help to much if you have bald tires and wet roads

 

Ok here goes took out a Tiberon 4cyl in a light to light twice in a row he stayed close till I hit 3rd.Same story with a ragged out late 80s chevy 4x4 350 4spd lol.People are starting to ask me what I got in my car dont have the heart to tell em its a stock sohc with 89000 miles and a hole in the muffler
