Rep Power: 0 yea u can, i have raced my friends 2001 impala (non SS) v6 and it has like 180 or somewhere around there and i have beaten him all the time from the line and from starting around 30mph, and im stock at the moment. And even if the oldsmobile has 200hp he is a lot heavier.

Rep Power: 311 if u do it from a rollin 30mph, maybe he takes the advantage cuz those cars are real heavy... if u launch from the start, you'd take the advantage.
i have an automatic 03 with intake, i own late 80's caddys/buicks/Gms/chyslers from the start. but they did have those huge chrome rims on them which probably was the lag for them.
i would get like half a car length ahead.
when u come back, if u lose the rollin start, challange from dead stop and try workin on ur launchin.
GOOD LUCK AND BE SAFE
