If I was a betting man I'd say the GTS cause its manual, but also that cars kinda old so it could be slower just from all the carbon deposits and such if the engine isn't new or been cleaned recently. So it could be a good race.

I'm not a racer but I do own an '89GTS and it is still very quick.

1996 ST automatic: 0-60 (10 seconds) 110 HP economy engine
1988 GTS manual: 0-60 (8.1 seconds) 135 HP performance engine

Like Ben said, the GTS is 8 years older but on paper, I'd have to say the '88 GTS easy for the win. Real life...?
If it's your friend, just race him and find out......
