I'm serious man.. I've only heard of a couple 110mph traps and they were bad ETs (lot of spinning going on off the line but otherwise ok passes) and only 1 posted a slip. If that car is in fact stock it's 2mph faster than any other 2010 SS that's posted anywhere. Seems a bit odd unless the DA was -2000 or something?

I'm going to call him tomorrow and see if he kept a slip. If he did, I'll post it. If he did not, we will be there friday night again, I'll get a slip and some video for you guys.

I am not trying to argue. I really don't know much about these cars, just what I see.

Da was between -650 to -615

It's impressive..don't get me wrong here... I've been following the records all year and haven't seen anything close. That's why I'm skeptical.

well ran into 2 5th gens today and well both were kinda funny stories, first one i ran into was a v6 yellow and he did a little ricer fly by in traffic, ripped past me then jammed the brakes. so i tapped the gas a little and let off around 4.5k rpms and coasted by him and i thought his wife was gonna fall out the car. she couldnt get the window up fast enough covering her ears. i had my mom in the car and she was laughing about it and antagonizing me a little bit about how quick she thinks the new camaro is, he didnt wanna play. he acted like he did but didnt, he jotted through traffic i pursued till the opening, he moved over i pulled up along him and then he didnt do anything but pace me. so i called it and went on about my business. 2nd was on the way home about 4 hrs later, was a black SS with orange stripes, looked like magnaflow exhaust and sounded pretty healthy, all tinted out. i was excited and moms had the camera ready to go, she was my wing man for the day well anyway, she paced me for a good 30 seconds, then b4 my mom could turn on the camera she rolls down here window and gives me a thumbs up and rolls back and changed to the slow lane... my mom said she wishes she just caught my reaction, the driver couldnt have been any younger than 60, grandma had it goin on man!

it sounds like to me a lot of people on here are having a hard time admitting that the 5th gens are the faster car, may not be by much but they are stock for stock mod/mod. then theres the modded up 4th gen racing a stock 5th which doesnt make sense to me of course if you have enough done to it you'll have the upper hand. wait a couple years until a lot more people start modding them then see where you stand. and if im wrong then im wrong, but frankly i dont think i am
