Default 2010 ss vs my z28

Well for starters with me in my car it weighs dead in about 3280 or so its one hell of a runner with mods in the sig. I've stomped ******** in the new challenger r't an charger srt8. Guy has an automatic so it has the lesser powered l99 with AFM correct. He was just a smart *** he pulled up next to me in the middle of town in an old suburban, revs up says you want to race, I look an he's even carrying a trailer, WTF. I just sad no, then He's like O yeah well i got a brand new 2010 ss that'll stomp a hole in your ***, I was like O really. He's like yeah, I tried to talk to him some more but he just took off it kind of pissed me off. So I'm on the look out for this bitch tonight

the new camaro weighs too much for a stock lt1 to be in it, but it has an ls3 so its much better off.

12's can be done without gears in a bolt-on car.

Sorry but the faster you go the worse it will get... Depending on his Driver mod will determine how much you will get beat by. Not saying you couldnt get him out of the hole or someone miss a gear and you get the win that way.

Still rolling on the snowflakes i sold you?

It doesn't take Major weight reduction lol. Those cars usually run in the high 11's/12-flat range. Gears aren't worth "that" much.

A good stall, bolt-ons, suspension and some good tires can get you in the 12's with stock 3.23's.

I wasn't thinking of the A4s. How good of a "stall"?

OP's car is an M6 and no suspension mods? I don't see him taking A6 SS or SRT-8 from a roll.
