Here is the competition. Not sure if I wanna run against him now, I heard he runs a 12.6. My cars pretty much stock. I'd still do it for fun and you never know I might catch him slippin.

That's a NICE duster.

Oh, and the camaro is nice too

I had a Duster (my 1st car) they came with either slant 6, 318 or HP 340.
TO put a big block in them the front end tends to fall out. But from the picture he might has invested in it. SO

If he does in fact have a 383, 440 ect I'd stay way away from racing him.
Light car + Big block = FAST

just race him already!

maroman1138 · 11-04-2011, 09:35 AM

Hell, i'll drive up there and race him. I ain't skeered.

Revo1 · 11-04-2011, 10:03 AM

Dude GO FOR IT... Even if ya lose, still be an awesome show

CC Performance · 11-04-2011, 10:08 AM

Nice Duster ! It will come down to gearing and suspension and the driver mod

Two gorgeous cars!

ROD_SS · 11-04-2011, 12:46 PM

DO IT! Only for a hamburger?..I'll race him in my v6 and lose. It's all for fun

vroomapunk · 11-04-2011, 02:14 PM

Yeah it depends, my dad has a 79 z28 with a bigblock 496 (8.1L), and it definitely has tons of power, but cant get it to the ground as well as a new car.

Theres a huge advantage to be had with gearing, newer transmissions, and electronics

Go for it! Win or lose, you will have fun. I hate losing by the way.

The SwiftChancelor · 11-04-2011, 05:55 PM

He told me it was a small block. Yeah, win or lose it will still be fun but of course I wanna win otherwise I may never here the end of it around the shop. Oh well, grin and bear it. I would run against him already but he only drives it once every 3 or more months. Plus the only drag strip may be closed and is an hour away. I'm not fond of tickets and/or do I want my insurance to go up. We need a good old back road. It'll be okay theres no rush.

cruznls · 11-04-2011, 06:36 PM

A friend had a 340 Duster...
It beat everything on the road at the time...
A real 340 car has a 150mph speedometer & a small 6000 rpm Tach...
Runnin' or Sittin' the car looks like a trophy winner..........
