There's my build thread.
I started in second both times, I hit third and it spun and kicked sideways on me! 295/35 18 toyo proxes street tires. Zl1 looks beautiful in person.

Good run, did you not think you could beat it. I'm sure you have a stout iroc there.

Oh yea I was sure id win. You can here me say " id love to hurt his feelings" haha. But it was actually pretty close because of lack of traction. Got him by half a car maybe.

nice race and badass iroc! Can't believe more people haven't chimed in on this thread yet. Guess it was too uncontroversial eh?

That's a bad ass ride you have there. I can't really say good kill...racing from 20-65 isn't a race. Again your car is fucking awesome and more than likely would've raped the zl1.

Why can't it be the law that every street has track prep?

I heard in Compton Cali they have a prepped street. ( Acoording to the Nat Geo channel on tv)

Nice car , I think he meant when does the race happen (1.38 minutes) in your video when he said time stamp .

Yeah sorry, I was trying to watch at work earlier and didn't have sound, kept bumping forward a little but never saw what looked like a race.

They Do have Several Prepped tracks out here (Aka streets) some of which r not the smartest place to Race.

Good Kill! I'm guessing this was saturday night??

Haha, there's a dyno vid on one of the last pages of my build thread. Build thread link is on the first page of this thread. It put down 616rwhp @10psi going lean, letting out early. What do you have?

Yes it was Saturday night. Awesome time!

Thanks heater! Chip, I totally agree, it was the best 3 days I've had in a loooong time.

Ocean City police only charge 70 bucks for burnouts...lol. Got an STi, and an Evo that should be fun. Other big toys too if you have something with more powa also... You in Maryland?

05-23-2012, 09:04 AM
Haha ill have no part in those all wheel drive vehicles lol id like to get 800rwhp out of the camaro @ about 15-17 Psi. The turbos good for 1200fwhp but keeping the heads down will definitely be an issue if I tried that. I'm from Pennsylvania, drove the car 200 miles to Maryland and 200 miles back. Averaged 19 MPG with a carburetor and 6.6l engine not bad lol

05-23-2012, 10:50 AM
Haha definitely took some research and trial and error but the carb works excellent. You just don't get the fuel economy, and cold starting like you do with fi, but it works great. I also like the old school new school theme I got going. Ls powered, turbo, carbureted, 80s camaro. Mullet and skinny jeans not included haha.

Nice car and great kill. I wonder if thats the same Zl1 I messed with on I-695 with my Supra. Its had a cop/fireman plate on it though-can't tell in your video if that car was the same

Not that i don't like Supras, I actually do, I think they're awesome. But this guy pulls in as im washing my car and does a 9 turn k turn which seemed like he deliberately pointed his gay ass side pipe at me and hit the 2 step blowing smoke and backfire bombs at me while I stood there watching. It didn't bother me one bit, I actually smiled and nodded, but he scared the crap out of my girlfriend. Not cool bro. Then I angled my car towards him and popped the hood of my car so he could see.;) he left shortly after.

No. I have an older one and its blue. Looks stock but has the newer style wheels on it

05-24-2012, 10:38 PM
Zl1 is still an 11sec car, Idk if id call it a turd, but yea i did beat him spinning in 2nd and 3rd. He says he lost traction too but Idk if I buy it lol

evan smith recently ran a '13 shelby...got a 11.89 on street tires...they also ran a ZL1 to a 11.91...soooo it will be a lot closer then everyone thinks...and the auto in the ZL1 is quicker and faster then the manuel...the shelby should win, but not by as much as everyone thinks and it will be buried on a track or road course against the ZL1...it already took apart the LAGUNA SECA BOSS 302...

Right...the current (old) GT500 beats the Boss LC on the track, and the new GT500 will rape the old one. Let's wait and see what happens when both cars are tested together.
