Oh and I was wrongly informed about that Camaros mods.
It does not have a Vindicator or Trickflows.
But it does have a 228 cam,stock heads,stock intake,bottle.

That C5 was pathetic. The streetfire race against the dumdumdumdumdum was really a driver's race from what I could see. Nice Evo. Great Vid!!!

The Z06 needs tires badly. And what is that word that keeps getting filtered?

Yeah street racing isnt has much about HP as at the track. Hooking is 90% of the race on the street.
And you know I take my time prepping my lane and doing my burnout a certain way. Theres more to it than meets the eye.
And Ive been thinking about fixing the carrier and doing a cam but Im not sure if I wanna to risk losing my 60' for a little more MPH.

lucky for me, most of these guys can't 60' for ****. It cracks me up when they start whining about the AWD launch...they really think it's 60' something special. That was a nasty 1.88 vs the camaro, I gave him the hit and still caught him before shifting to second.

I guess it depends on just how far up the list you want to go...the current setup is good enough for the top tier easily.

Yeah I think Imma just keep the Stock H/C and go back to my old setup.
Vig3200,4.10s,& MT 275/40/17 (26") DRs.
So I can try and get back into the 10s. Thats the setup it had when it went 10.89@123. Right now on 3.73s & M&H 275/50/17 (28")DRs its only good for 11.38@118. Those tall DRs really stole my MPH. Gotta get it back.

Finally someone posts a street racing video where there aren't people and cars parked all along where the cars are racing cheering like dumb asses at night. Good work.

I have to wonder what it would do with the 4.10/28" combo...is it the rotating weight or effective gear ration killing the mph, that's pretty significant.

I think its both but this should answer your questions for what it would run with the 4.10s/28":
