    newb with questions

    Re: newb with questions but the sy/ty is a sleeper so i coudl get more races. the ricers/imports just make noise with the fart cannons and wont race.

    Re: hp rating? i think theres a reason why they went auto with the turbo. consider the grand nationals and turbo T/A's. how are you gonna spool up the turbo for launch with a stick and not get too high in the RPM's. its possiable but easier for a auto. im a pontiac guy so i know how you guys...
