Im pretty sure the base model. I will double check tomorrow. I know its not the GXP but it might be the GT. How bad would the GT beat us? I know it has to weigh less. Everything weighs less than our cars lol.

I have a 2003, so only 190HP. Racers corner is usually stories about racing. This is more of a power question, which would fall closer to V6...But whatever

well i would say if his is base model you shoudnt have a problem. it its a gt he would problly win, i mean it is like a 30hp difference, but it also depends on the drivers.

This guy isnt the smartest in the world. He still has to worry about spinning his tires. Even if you have an auto you cant just slam down the gas pedal and say you gave it your best.

Why would they not spin? I see people spin their tires all the time with autos on accident.

Can't he just turn off the T/C. I never noticed a T/C button in my friends G6 but I figured the car just came without T/C. Since its kind of on the cheaper end of the car spectrum.
