Actually, any car will run stronger with colder ambient temperatures. Warmer weather will slow those times. The only issue with cold temps. is tires not gripping as well...especially if they are summer tires.

Which is more than likely the reason the OP said "wait till it gets warmer out" Anything under 40 degrees and any tire that is non-winter gets hard and won't hook as well.

LOL, the new Stang GT or an 05 Stang GT will rape this thing.
The new camaro weighs too much, has too little torque, and is geared too low to keep up with the Stang GT.
I like it for what it is...a base car.

~13.5 at ~105
almost as fast as a stock ls1 car. On average the trap speeds are about 2 mph slower than an ls1 from what ive noticed from board to board.
Warming stock radials? that doesnt do much...especially on an unprepped ice cold road.
A run on an average 70 degree day on a prepped track will see a significant improvement on these times. Not so much with trap speed. But I would guess high 13's will be possible.
Anyone notice the 113 mph trap speed for the SS? this car is neck and neck with an 03 cobra.

Yeah, stock radials are gonna suck anyway...especially 20 inchers. Who woulda thought you would be needing DRs on a V6 camaro? May as well put some skinnies on the front also and see deep thirteens with a few boltons.

not too bad there. i wanna see what the ss will do after broken in. i could definately see it doing better than a 12.70 with lt headers, ory ,cai and a tune. wonder how they will run against a lt1 car with mild bolt ons.
