Nice vid. Thanks for sharing. How come the Camaro was racing with the top down? Gotta slow him down significantly, no?

WTF are you talkin about dude?
The ws6 was the slowest of the three. Not to mention the Vette had the LS3, not the SS

WS6 - Forged LS1
SS - 408
Vette - LS3

All nice rides though and sweet runs, that SS accels hard!

Motor size doesn't mean everything, WS6 has weight redux

Cool vid, all cars look and sound badass.

Right on, that's understandable. Brutal group of cars nonetheless.

Look like to me the ss got the jump but the camera car was pulling back on him.Second race look like the ws6 let out of it.Wasn't the camera in the ws6?The third race camera car was pulling away hard.My bad on the ls3 it was in the vette.
