How fast are stock 97 st's with 5 speeds, if you're a pretty good shifter. I've got 97 manual st all stock and I dont really know if I'd get my ass kicked by everybody in a race or not, I'm a pretty good shifter, but I'm not sure how it compares to other cars (what it could beat).

even if you shift fast our cars are pretty slow. fast for 115 hp maybe, but slow nonetheless. forget about all the "performance" cars out there, but you should be able to kill most econo-boxes.

out of curiousity.... how many revs do you drop shifting from gear to gear?
