OK here the deal, running around town is one of each of these and all are bone stock. So they all talk big but I know not a single one of them know dick about cars (daddy bought the cars for them).
So which of these is the fastest and order from 1st to 3rd.

By the way the ZR1 is amazingly fast and clean, he let me drive it a couple times, and he can't drive for **** but he said if he loses a race he'll let me race his car against the other two .

Both the Vette's are 6-speeds. I'm thinking the TTA (obviously auto) won't be able to hang with the Vette's but I'm not sure. The races are set for this Friday if it doesn't snow. But I was just wondering what you guys think the outcome will be. And yes I do live in Jerkwater but there is a big Clinic in Marshfield and some of the doctors there are rather well off so that's were these cars are coming from.

Any feedback is great, Thanks, Later Garrett

BikertrashDude

1st Z06
2nd ZR1
3rd TTA
thats what i would say, no way a 89 3rd gen f-body (stocK) and yes i know it is a TTA, would spank two of the TOP vettes out there.

i agree with biker!

Mark305TBI

I'd say biker's probably right...ZR1 should be pretty close to the Z06, possibly ahead depending on drivers. The TTA should be dead last.

BigMike92Z

better tell the TTA to up the boost and start tuning... bone stock he'll get raped if those guys can drive even decently... some small mods and he should be able to pass 'em.

GreenRS

let me get this straight, you have all those cars in your sig and you DONT know that 2 vettes would kill a tta. OH wait your only 20, do you really own all those cars----------i think not

CamaroFreak406

Well aren't you just mister know it all. No I don't own all of those cars in the sig it says I sold 2 of them in the last year. And yes I do have the others.

Who in the H*ll are you to say I don't have those cars. I had originally stated that I didn't think that the TTA was going to be able to keep up to the vette's. What does being 20 have to do with anything.

Green RS your a freakin' tool. You don't know me and you obviously don't know **** about me. So why don;t you justy shut the f*ck up.

I have been dealing and building cars since I was 12 so having this many cars isn't a big deal. I am currently selling the Olds and the Monza is a just used for drag racing.

The TTA WILL get smoked if its bone stock like you said....but start modding? eh its anybody's race

Real simple for everybody;
Weight from lightest to heaviest: Z06, ZR1, TTA
Power from most to least: Z06, ZR1, TTA
The Z06 and the ZR1 make the same power depending on year (405hp) but that's just a figure. The TTA was rated at 250hp (5 less than that years vette) but actually was making a hair over 300 at the fly. Now if you look at the details the ZR1 is a better motor in my opinion (32v DOHC) but it was detuned from the factory or I should say Lotus. Blah blah blah, just look at it and the TTA is last dead stock, ZR1 in close second and Z06 would win.

Well I see I touched a nerve, but if that is true (above quote), why did you need to ask such a simple question? I never claimed to know you, but after your abviously imature post I dont want to.

fly89gta

iTrader: (1)

Has he owned any of those 3 cars? Nope, he was merely asking a question, grow the **** up and stop posting dumb****..

paul_huryk

Z06 - Mid 12's
ZR1 - Low 13's or high 12's
TTA - Mid to low 13's

Top speed - ZR1 - geared better than Z06

Potential - TTA & ZR1

Snake32v

His imMature post? LOL look at your's! WTF does it matter to you what he ask?

FyreLance

CamaroFreak406

Umm.. let me see touched a nerve, Ya you could say that. Let me see if someone called you a liar and would you be a little defensive? I would think so. And who do you think you are, The all knowing car guy? Your driving a TBI 305 RS and you think you you know all about race questions like this one?

Dude I do have or had all the cars in my sig. None of them were showroom prestine, but none of them where rusted out POS's either. Also there's not a one of them that would lose a race to your 305 TBI RS camaro.

So why don't you go eat some freakin' donuts you "Law Enforcement" Pig.

Sorry about the flaming to everyone else I don't usually do it, but this guy just really got on my bad side fast.

Later, Garrett


Oh Ya the races are still on for tonight should be quite a bit of fun . Also what kind of mods would the TTA have to do to hang with the vette's (screw hang with them what would he need to beat them).

Snake32v

Actually if you want to get technical LOL isn't a word. I had "your's" already there smart guy and I didn't say asked it should have been asks. :sillylol: nice try though

Snake32v

fuel injectors and boost controler. That should get him low 12's I would imagine.

FyreLance

I'm aware that "LOL" is not a word, I left it in for "netiquette's" sake.

Asked is just as correct as asks as far as grammar is concerned.

I was just joking anyway.

fly89gta

iTrader: (1)

All he would really need is an adjustable wastegate to up the boost(GOOD boost controllers for these cars are $300-1000) some race gas,race chip and some sticky tires.

The stock injectors are fine for low 12's, hell some have broken into the 11's with em(though they were screaming for mercy).

There is no need to even touch the longblock for 11's.

tpivette89

actually, in 89' the highest HP rating the Vette got was 245 (5 less than the TTA). the most HP a L98 was rated at was 250, but that wasnt until 90 & 91. im tired of the innaccurate claims that GM purposely underrated cars because of the Vette. there is your proof its not true

fly89gta

iTrader: (1)

The TTA was still MASSIVELY underrated though, I've seen dyno slips of BONE STOCK down to the paper filter TTA squeaking out 301 RWHP

CrazyHawaiian

I say the TTA will win because the other guys prolly cant race a 6 speed worth a damn and its impossible for the TTA owner to mis-shift. hahahahah

JPrevost

Glad to see you care so much. I got my info from members here so I'm not sure what that's all about.
Besides there is a link http://www.89tta.com/ttafaq.htm and at the bottom they say what I said. Although now that I looked (not like I cared in the past) the 89 vette did only make a rated 245hp. Very odd that such an obvious loophole to the theory was never uncovered.

1991tealRSt-topGuy

you my friend are a ****ing idiot

i assume YOU know everything



immature post?
only one who is immature here is you!

get lost

Snake32v

awwwww Teal bashing on someone other than me. :lala: LOL

1991tealRSt-topGuy

heh, just cut your and i wont bash you, simple as that

although i havent read any of your posts latley, so you might have already

devianb

If I had anyone of those cars, all of which I would gladly like to have, I garantee it would not be stock. The owners must obviously not like cars as much as we do to keep them stock. One of the first things we do is at the least put in a high flow filter and an exhaust, maybe some headers.

Biker had it right. Z06, ZR1, TTA. That's assuming that owners can handle the power enough not crash into a pole or something.

fly89gta

iTrader: (1)

That's a pretty ignorant statement right there to, just because they keep em stock they don't like cars as much as someone that mods em? Some people want to keep rare cars orginal...nothing wrong with that...

Snake32v

LOL true that. Mod you a 2000 Cobra R and watch how fast the resale value drops.

devianb

Ok then. I forgot how rare those cars are. I'm just saying mine wouldn't be stock. Once I buy a car I like to keep. I guess if you plan on selling it then keeping it original is a good idea. I'm just so used to having a thirdgen with few original parts.


Sorry if that statement sounded dumb.

fly89gta

iTrader: (1)

So if you had a mint condition GNX you'd mod it??

Greasemonkey

If I was gonna drive it, yes. Since the turbo's are unique I'd remove that and put on a TA-49 or something. Besides that, no.

fly89gta

iTrader: (1)

Something like that, where it can easily be replaced with the original is fine, but big time mods, ughh not good lol

tpivette89

you dont buy a GNX to drive, you get a GN for that. GNXs are for shows and the like

devianb

Geez, settle down there. I am more into the modding of cars that are not in the greatest shape and have been fairly used. If the GNX is in mint condtion, I'm not going to touch it. If the GNX had 150,000 miles on it and was primered in spots, and ran slower than stock, then yes, I would mod it.

fly89gta

iTrader: (1)

You wouldn't find one like that and if you did its your duty to put that owner out of his misery on the spot :sillylol:

devianb

LOL. I have only seen 2 and both of them were in show room condition.

Greasemonkey

No, YOU wouldn't buy a GNX to drive. If I was going to spend the money for a GNX I'd drive it. Why would I pay all that money for a car that was going to sit in the garage?

tpivette89

thats sad. youd be destroying a peice of history. i hope you never own one. id drive it once in awhile, maybe, but this kind of car is NOT a daily driver. most have less than a few thousand miles on them

devianb

What about a GN that looked like a GNX. Would you drive it then?

tpivette89

sure, thats what i stated in an above post. if you want a driver turbo regal, then you get a GN or Ttype. low milage, mint GNXs are just not meant to be driven daily. theyre museum/show cars

Greasemonkey

Ouch, you're hurting my feelings. When did I EVER say it would be a daily driver. Would I drive it? Hell yes. Would I drive it to work, to the store, etc, etc? Hell no. Would I be destroying a piece of history? Maybe, maybe not, its not like I'd go out, run the **** out of it, and not take care of it. I'm well aware that lots of them have a few thousand miles on them. I'm also well aware that some have been driven and one (that I know of) cut up and made into a drag car. Deal with it. They're cars. Last I checked, cars were meant to be driven.

devianb

I only liked the looks of GNXs. I don't care for the styling of the Regal or even the T type. It doesn't have that wedge like thirdgens. I love the wedge shape, its so slick.

f-crazy

iTrader: (-1)

so much for the ZR1-Z06-TTA ORIGINAL topic lmao....

its been said a few times

Z06
ZR1
TTA...

top speed would be the ZR1

devianb

Do you know what the top speeds are by any chance?

CamaroFreak406

OK here's how the race went down. First the TTA races both the Vette's loses both times and is really pissed, does a massive burnout and leaves. Then just the Vette's are left, they decide to run best of 3. First race goes to the Z06 by about 1/2 a car length. Second race was very close and the ZR1 won by about 2 feet. Then the third race the Z06 screwed up his shift from second to third and the ZR1 creamed him.
This was one of the best street races I have ever seen. I thought the TTA would have been a little closer but oh well, 5 cars lengths isn't that much.

So the Final Result
3rd : TTA
2nd : Z06
1st : ZR1
