Less weight, better aero. Does a lot at those speeds.

And of course 4th gear=$$$$$ gear. Still amazes me everytime and im stock.

Good kill. I love the Plum Crazy purple. LOVE.

My gto only Dyno 323wrhp and 325wrtq and I can run a 10.77 in the 1000 foot. So I belive him. The challengers are slow and very heavy.

I don't know what it is about GTO owners in general, but they seem to think they are god's gift to earth or something. Again, I'm just talking from personal experience at the track and on the street.

On another note, I'm in Norman too. You hitting up Thundervalley tomorrow by any chance?

Interesting, they are always cool with me. Unfortunately i work till 9PM every Friday so I only make it out on Saturdays. I think I've seen your car off 12st at a certain apt complex.

Well Juice does have some weight reduction. GTO's are around 3600-3750 pounds from what I've seen. Compared to a challenger at 4200 pounds...that's a good difference bud.

I think the camaro has a meaner look to be honest, but I am pretty biased.

GTO do look sick as hell. They just look like they're going to eat you up, but stock they're not all that great. There's a guy spraying at my track (not sure of the shot) but he's running 11s. Pretty sick GTO. It's not street legal though, he hauls it around in a trailer, yellow with a solid black stripe. It looks downright nasty.

I just wish they were nicer people in general. By far the nicest crowd out at the track has been the mustang guys... the 5th gen camaro owners are all stuck up, and not very many 4th gen camaros out there, and the ones that are out there are high school kids rolling around like tools.

Either way good kill OP. I used to think they would murder my car when they first came out. I see that's not the case. :-)
