stock gp gt vs. stock grand am

Okay, so a friend wants to do a roll from 20mph. Both cars are stock.
Taking into account all factors (weight, gears, etc) who comes out the victor?

Sorry if this has been discussed in the past, I did a search and didn't come up with anything. If it has been please just send me the link.

Thanks.
 


Are you really saying that? Ha...Ha.

YouTube - Grand Am GT alongside a Grand Prix GT

Just one vid I found...there are MANY more showing most stock Grand Am in the mid 15's with bolt-ons coming down in the 14's where stock GTP's are. I'd say that if the Grand Prix is stock it will be close but I am gonna say Grand Am...they weigh less and don't have that much less HP...and have shorter gearing IIRC...so you do the math.
 


I'd say grand prix, and it says on that video that the grand am was not stock

Still, just saying an intake and a few other bolt ons for a N/A 3400 aren't gonna give HUGE gains. Stock GP GT's throw down 16's...that is why I say the Grand Am might have the edge...

Good point, plus the weight advantage...it'll be a pretty good race.:th_mischievious: Very interested to hear the outcome!
 
both are BONE stock...no CAI, not bolt on's..nothing.

and i will let you know the outcome...will probably be from a 20 roll to around 70
 


Grand Am will win. I already raced a 99 GAGT with a 99 GPGT. Both 100% Stock. The GA walked the GP.

i really don't like to hear this...she is a girl and i don't lose well to the females...lol

i guess i will start on reducing some weight...take out the back seat, run on empty, take the spare out, start running around the block...

thanks for the info!
