Sunbird GT vs. 86'Trans Am
My friend has a bone stock 1992 Sunbird GT 5 speed, I have a stock 1986 Trans Am automatic with a 305. He keeps talking smack about my car and I just would like to know how badly I could smoke him before it transpires in real life.

For this board to have less speculation I think the name would have to be changed. Until then This is perfectly acceptable.

I'm pretty sure a '91 GT came with a 3.1 V6. When paired with a 5-speed, it can be pretty quick for a Cavalier/Sunbird. I'm thinking it will be a very close race. If your friend is a good driver, then I am giving him the edge in this one. Hopefully you will prove me wrong but there's ony one way to find out, so get out there and race him!
