Out of curiosity do you have any track times with call911?
Nothing showing what it is capable of, if I can run as close as I did to Scotts Z28 and he is almost in the single digits. But my car has always hooked up better on the street than the track.

It's been a while so I don't remember exactly, but its something like 11.2 @129 was its best time.

My problem wasn't even hooking up as much as it was keeping it on the track/keeping it straight. I had ET streets as well and cut a really good 60' time, but since I have huge Baer brakes on the front, it takes a very specific and expensive skinny on the front, leaving me traveling all over the place up front and borderline out of control with my big ballin' 18" wheels up front.

Someday I'll bite the bullet and drop the coin on skinnies that will fit, or someday find someone with them who will let me borrow them.

Good luck at the track though man, keep me and the others in the loop.

I have tried welds before, they won't fit. Those will fit around "stock" brakes on the 4th gen F-bodies, but not aftermarket Baer brakes like I have.

WoW that is pretty cool!

Maybe you guys can clarify for me something that I know probably could eventually.
The G8 GT is RWD right? Ok the Impala SS is FWD right? Are they not on the same platform or am I mistaken. Or am I wrong about both of these cars?????

Correct. The G8 GT is RWD, and the most recent iteration of the Impala SS is FWD with the LS4. They are not on the same platform, I believe the G8 GT is on one of the Holden platforms, though I do not remember the designation.

G8 is the Zeta platform. Camaro rides on a modified Zeta, IIRC.

With GM hipo getting the boot, or rather an extended stay in other departments(automobile magazines way of putting it) has there been anymore talk of more of the general's platforms going RWD?
