That thing is FWD for one thing...
If you beat him by anything less than a football field you suck at life

[OnEbAdReDSS]

lol ok sounds good i'll report back

[hutch1999]

bus lengths

Presuming you're running a full 1/4 mile, it shouldn't be close at all unless you completely cook the tires on the launch!

[dpinson]

i have driven many different northstar powered caddies and you shouldnt have a thing to worry about,unless you give him a 990ft head start and you run to a 1/4 mile

[Firebirdjones]

Just to give ya an idea how they run. My buddy has one,,,,the largest of the Caddy fleet, a 4-door land barge and he runs the thing all the time.

Runs 15.20's at 92 mph.

You didn't mention what style caddy,,,,if it's a smaller (lighter) version I would expect it to run a tad quicker,,,maybe a very high 14 or so.

With that said I would think there isn't a 4th gen stock or otherwise that should have a problem with one of these.

[UTVols98]

I'd put some money down on this race cause it'll be the easiest money you've ever made. If he's that confident, put a couple hundred.

by DD is a 97 caddy w/ northstar you will have no problem at ALL im surprized you even felt the need to ask LoL unless he forsure wants to put some money down don't waste the gas

[OnEbAdReDSS]

i think we are going to race for a tank of gas which is 55 bucks and i wasn't asking i was just wonderin how much i would rape him..:Poke:

[Firebirdjones]

ya, a v6 auto would.

LOL, sorry about the confusion, V6 cars aren't part of my vocabulary,(unless they are turbocharged),,by mentioning 4th gens I was referring to V8 stuff exclusively. :)

[LGT Guru]

My friedns 95 STS went a 14.8 with 193k miles on it

[Shermanator86]

damn i thought this thread was going to be a northstar in somthing besides a caddy, like the one stuffed in the back of a fiero that i know of. If the guy thinks he's going to beat you buy 5 lengths i would put more money on it than $55, at least $100

[LGT Guru]

Yeah when you said northstar i was thinking the new STS supercharged northstar or the XLR or XLR-V something that is a real challenge

[7camaro7]

I think you need to get your bottle out for this one man... I don't know... You're racing a fucking sts 1995 cadillac! Those things are beastly! Northstar! Bring the slicks too... I heard they're awd too, no f'n joke...

Ok, you'll absolutely kill him. my buddy had one and he wanted to roll race me from like 50 and I swear he shifted to reverse when I shifted to 2nd...

[predator]

unless it is an XLR-V you got it...
