yup, Joe and Amber with a 6spd [faceplated] Camaro 8.90 @ 150, solid roller 402 n/a

KICK ***!

I would love to try my hand at rowing the gears that fast, even though they don't use the clutch after the launch, its still VERY VERY impresive to shift 3 times in 8.9 seconds. Mad props to Joe for taking thatc ar down the track like that.

But you need to bear in mind their T-56 is not your t-56, by any stretch, and there is some MAJOR $$$ spent there.

BUT.....ive seen some pics of Speedinc's TT camaro that was built to go up against the Vipers and try and take the Title for the fastest 6Speeds....so it might end up taking Sixspeedinc's title for fastest lsx with a 6 speed.

Taner, with one N, he is a member here. I see him in the LT1 forum sometimes.
