How fast are camaro SS'? Before buying my car I never took into sight the performance of the Camaro SS'. All driver experience aside, I'm curious to know what times you guys are doing at the track with:
1. Bone stock camaro with tires.
2. Camaro with full exhaust/tires.
3. Camaro with full exhaust and cam (baby or aggressive)/tires.
I know there is less drivetrain loss for you guys cause of the solid rear axle. And because of that you guys make some crazy dyno numbers too. I mean the kind that rival an LS2 engine like mine. Just curious to see what numbers you guys do at the track.

I went 7.70s with a basic tune, sticky rear tires, not even full boltons, 3800stall, in my '98 Trans Am. Equals out to a 12.0ish pass at a good track, if not better. That was last year.

To your comment of "I think i got the wrong car"
Your car has much better build quality , along with a nicer interior and better engine bay. A camaro is basicly a shitbox with a good engine / trans. Go sit in one and take a short ride and see what I mean.
If your only after speed per dollar, yes you prolly got the wrong car. If your after an overall good package, you picked a decent ride ( although im not fond of the plain looks the gto has. )

Also keep in mind that different years and transmission choices will yield different times. But I'll agree by saying the GTO has a nicer interior and build quality over the F-body. Keep in mind the GTO is heavier as well.
