If every dam auto magazine can get a 13 flat with the camaro...with a good driver a high 12 is very possible.....those two can't drive for crap.

Guys, surely you realize these are factory (slim) wheels with street tires and the track is probably as slick as an ice skating rink. I'm sure it's also probably hot out in the vids and the track isn't prepped at all. I've seen a stock 06 gto go 14.0 at 99mph at one track and the next week go 13.3 at 105mph at a different track with the same damn tires and no changes. Oh yeah, driver error didn't mean jack, the car was an auto. 2nd track was a lot better and it was colder. The new camaro will get high 12's easy on a good track day even the autos. Just wait, you'll see. Already gxp's are doing it and they're heavier.

^ That run was at E-Town. E-Town is not exactly a slow track. I blame that on the drivers not knowing how to race.

That video makes me like my awd TBSS just a little more, no such thing as bad track prep.
