    He is a kid and simply doesn't know any better. Shut him down and take his money while you are at it. IROC's are a fine car to drive around but they are not even remotely close to even a stock LT1, let alone a stock LS1 in terms of performance. You wouldn't believe the looks on all the young guys when they take their car to the track for the first time and see 95% of the cars simply drive by them (except for some of the imports).

    jus be careful with him, show him your power. i dont know how old he is but jus make sure its an open highway. a beginner driver might get overly aggressive. do a highway run

    i know from expierience (i know i spelled that wrong). i used to have an 88 IROC with exhaust and that was it. they are rated at 205 hp, with decent torque. i took it to the track and cut a 2.0 60ft. but those things have no top end what so ever. and i think we all know who i gonna win here.

    I love the 3rd Gens but there is no way he could beat you!!! Well unless you break something... He'll learn. At least you've got him on the right path...
