no that gtp will kill you unless ou can drive like a mother f*cker and other person is an old granny
*edit* yes i hope this is not a street race.. ive driven a GTP before and they ball out, my manager has one and he spins the tires in the parking lot when he gets on it..

Honestly yes. But racing someone can kill you or someone innocient, either way you're risking a lot!
My opinion, get your tires hot, lower the PSI, remove unnessary weight, and pratice your launch. First and for most, be safe...

Re: a big race (976)
Who said he was street racing? You really shouldn't assume **** like that. With a 75 shot and some driving skills you might have a chance, if the GTP is stock.

You should re read my reply, did I say or assume he was street racing, nope. I have no idea if he is or not... I helped provide insight to his question...

Re: a big race (Noeladams)
all gtps are fwd auto's so he is goin to be consitant on his start.
race from a stop and it will be very tight
race from a role and i think you will take him.

well, they have gone 15.5 to 14.2 stock. it'll be a good race. get off the line well and i think you'll have a chance up top. your best bet is probably on the street, its hard to get all the torque to the ground, especially in this cold ohio weather.

Re: a big race (1hotcivicSi)
First of all, youre stupid for racing for $700, however there is a chance if its a stock GTP that you could win from a roll, but not from a stop, theres a half second difference in 60 foot times between the two cars. And when you hit the NAWWZ make sure your floorpan doesnt bust loose on you.
