They are capable of 0-60 in about 4.9 and quarter mile times of about 13.4-13.6 in stock form with a good driver.

I can guarentee you that I can keep up with a car on the highway if it runs 1/4 times like this...GUARENTEE...anyways, throw as many numbers as you want, the FACT is, that it happened and Mr. TA couldn't catch up.

So, I'm driving home, in the left lane and I notice a newer yellow transam in the middle lane coming up. As I was minding my own business passing him, he speeds up and gets next to me and starts to go/slowdown. Well, he then punched it and after a few seconds, I was like, what he hell. So, I downshift and punch it. I catch up to him after a few seconds, and kept on passing him. We shut if off at around 125. I proceed to go home, now in the middle lane, as he gets to my left. As I look over, I get a better look at this car, it was yellow, black Ttop, black rims and the trans am bird pin striped on the hood and it had that huge dual ram air intakes on the hood. This guy had his girlfriend or wife with him, and I was alone. We decide to go at it again, from a 65mph roll, I was in third, we punch it on his third honk. NO ****, but my third gear pulls hard as hell and I got a quick half a car on him. From there I am inching away from him and as we hit 130mph I was a good 1 1/2 maybe 2 cars ahead. I got off on my exit and so does he. He looked at me SO surprised and asked if it was supercharged/turbo'd, I told him NO, just bolt ons, he said the car is nice and fast and gave a thumbs up. I asked what type of car he had, he said a 2002 Trams Am Anniversary edition, 6spd. As I glance over, his woman is checking out the G!! I get home and do research on this car, the damn thing has the WS6 engine, 5.7l V8, 325hp, 350lb torque....NOW, I'm one happy G owner. Oh, by the way, my shifting was flawless, I banged out the gears and noticed that's where I started to pull on him. THE END

My friend has a 02 Trans Am WS6 with headers, exhaust, high flow cats, and other NA goodies. Fastest car out of all my friends. The LS1 is a torquey beast. If they still made trans ams i wouldve gotten one. job well done with the driving
