Why do Grand Prix try to race me?

My friend owns a 96 GT that he swaped the 96 Cobra engine in, trans , rear end ect.

he has headers and open ehaust, intake and chip.

i handed him his arse with my 99 regal. He's since installed a 75 shot and still doesnt think its enough to take me (he lives 4 hours away, met him at college and we havent raced again yet)

BEST ET was 13.744 @ 101.X, w/2.268 60' , BEST MPH was 101.74 If i get my 60' around 2.00 or less i would be looking at a LOW LOW 13. It doesnt help i cant go WOT in 1st gear with out smoking the tires. I am also adding a 85 MM maf and 75 MM throttle body and progressive alcohol injection ( waiting on the couplers /adaptor plate for the new throttlebody )

i have a DHP computer, high lift aluminum roller rockers, slp headers & exhaust, open cone intake, generation 5 supercharger and 3.2 inch SC pulley (stock is 3.8)

WITH ONLY a 3.4 inch pulley basic stuff (T stat and plugs) and hot air intake, dhp comptuer, i was destroying 2000 body style GT's.

acouple days ago raced a 5.0 conv with somekinda hood and pins and turned him inside out..

The pre 97 gtps had the 3.4 dohc or OLD 3.5 ( cant remember) DOHC motor and there were also TGP's that came with the 3.1 turbo
Series II SC was factory rated at 240 HP and 280 TQ but it was more like 300 TQ
Series III SC was factory rated at 260 HP and 280 TQ, but their PCM's hold the cars back AND they have smaller fuel injectors so they are actualy slower, despite some engine and trans upgrades.
97 GTP's and up had the 3.8 L supercharged. (sereis II)
97 up regal gs's had the 3.8 L supercharged. (series II)
2004 impala SS has the 3.8 L supercharged. (series II)
2004 montey ss has the 3.8 L supercharged (sereis II)
2004+ GTP / GTP comp G had the 3.8 SC series III

Granted most "stock" cars will have major issues racing especialy launching because it takes alot of practice, i still have trouble. With traction control on by mistake i ran a 14.8 i let go after my terrible launch and coasted past the 1/8 at 80 something and figured why push the car, most of the drivers you run into are likely running with traction control on and preformance shift off...

next time you run into a gtp or GS ect, if you can hear the SC whine, be ready for a race.
