GT6 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am Special Edition

Pictures of the 1978 Pontiac Firebird Trans Am.
 

 Bought it because...





Special Edition too.


Firebird... aka the Screamin' Chicken.


Used it to win the Classic Muscle Car challenge in National A.


However, I have to say that the Trans Am is a pretty slow car in the game.

It's slow to accelerate, slow to brake and the top speed is nothing special.


I did win the races but only after multiple upgrades.


Stock, it probably won't win any race with comparable cars, there will always be at least two that will run away (in particular a 1966 Cobra something or other is damn hard to catch in a Trans Am).


Engine: 7.5 l (455 cid) V8 (with catalytic converter).

Performance: top speed around 120 mph (193 km/h) according to engine tuning; 0-60 mph (97 km/h) in 7.8 secs.






Oops!

Recreating the Cannonball Run.






Leading from behind.
