It's pretty much a drivers race. If you guys ran 10 times it could go 5-5.

Every V6/auto '10 Camaro that I've seen at the track were stuck in the 15's. I may have even seen a few 16's as well.

Yay! The Camaro V6 has to push around a lot of car. They may look small but they are heavy.

Good job!

312hp/ 3700lb - camaro

305hp/ 3400lb - monte

with intake and whatever else you might have the edge on power, dont know the gearing profiles and all that ... but good to see you beat him, i smoked one that had 4 people in it with ugly *** 20's on it ... but i would have cried if i hadnt ... but then again ... i weigh more than your average adult male, so my car technically had two small adults in it ...

they make more hp but we out torque them by a fair amount. from a dead stop if you can hook should be a easy race. oh yeah congrats on beating him down.

yeah probably, but you wouldnt be happy with the pay ... i just cant find anything else that isnt dealing with the public and without actually having my bachelors in hand ... ( one class short ) its kind of hard to find a job in that "field" of work ...

ahhh lets all sit back, pretend we had the politic/ economy discussion ... and move on without needing to reminisce what we all already know all too well ... no need for

i didnt think i would beat him, but i wanted to see if i could at least pace him ... im sure somebody more inclined to race or better at it could have got him in a true "race" but this was for fun, spur of the moment kind of thing, way too much traffic... and i got off the highway within like 3 miles to go to the gym ... so there was no chance of actually lining em up and doing a roll ...

still would like to see the ad ... because a race that you should win is like a mental tally of awesomeness before racing
