Just how close would a race be between a late 1990s Camaro v6 5-speed, and a RC 2000 4X2 v6 dak be.. say with a 5-speed 3.55... No mods on either car.. Has anyone tried this??

It's probably a long shot but ohh well..

I think the 3.4 against a Dakota would be a pretty good race. If the camaro has the 3.08 gears in it. Some camaros come with 3.42 gears, you will be a little behind but anything is possible.

I raced a (94 ish) automatic camaro and wooped him at the track. I have a 92 auto 3.9 with more than a few mods and his was stock. I ran 17.0 and he ran a 17.5. I don't know how much of a difference a manual makes at the track.
Anyone know?

nosdart you race one with a 3.4 liter with the 3.08 gears, I think. If it was a 94. But beware of the 3.8 with the y87 package. It will not be a good race for the Dakota.

I do have a question for all the 4.7 Dakota drivers. Is there anything like a pcm upgrade or chip, anything like that for this truck? Please, please help!!!
