@driftnsc3 power windows weigh the same as manual......

[testy462]

Can't be legit. GT500, even with a craptastic launch,will simply walk a stock LS1 car.

@TiKondaRoga wS6* because of the ram air intake. Trans Ams just have the body kit, so formulas are generally faster than trans ams by a hair. The WS6 is a tad faster though.

@jeepstir69 Oh btw the T/A also has 15more hp and 10 more tq than the Formula's...

PT 2....Also, in the vid I wanna say I had over 100k miles on the Formula, if not it was damn close.

@jeepstir69 and @TikondaRoga...I'm the guy that owned the Formula in the vid, its gone now but thought I would clear some things up for you 2. Both T/As and Formulas had a few different gearing options and according to the build codes on the car mine had 2.73 gears, not great for getting out the hole but as you can see I did just fine. Also, Formulas were ment to be "stripped" down T/As to cut back weight. Most had manual locks, windows, and solid roofs. Mine had power everything and t-tops.

@jeepstir69 Huh weird...You know I did what you said, I did some research and guess what??? Formula 4 and 6 speeds come standard with 3.08 gears, with a 3.42 option. Where the T/A comes standard with 3.42's... Good call out dip shit.

@TiKondaRoga

You are an idiot. The same gearing options were available for T/A's and Formula's! Formula's are actually much harder to find and much more collectable. "just a formula"...same powerplant, same gear options = do some research. For every 1 Formula out there, 10 Trans Ams were made.
