Default 2010 Camaro SS BUILD vs WS6 WITH VIDEO!!

Here's the full build-up vid of a local Camaro SS. Did a "before" race, the build, then a few "after" races. Got some good action on camera

I think our definition of "fully built" may be a little bit different. And really, lambo doors ...

I'm in class and don't wanna hit the video for fear of it being blaring loud (knew I shoulda brought my laptop today ). Wanna fill me in on what happens?

Most of the time when people say "fully built" its like a normal heads/cam car, so I've grown to hate the expression "fully built." Makes you sound like a n00b

Yeah man, here's how it goes down.....Guy gets outta class and heads straight for the computer lab to check out the vid HAHA
Basically, he gets me on spray, I get him on motor.
And I guess "fully built in progress" may be a better expression. Sorry about that. Magnacharger up next for SS. Forged motor, turbo/or 200 shot for WS6. Hope that clarifies
Either way, thanks for checkin out the vid....

Great vid and interesting...

So a Cammed camaro on motor is no match for a H/C/I/G LS1 car?

and

Even with a 150 shot it didn't pull super hard either...I'm surprised!

Upshifted with the paddle shifters on the lauch, so I figured that would constitute a "missed shift" if there was such a thing. Wouldn't want you guys thinkin I legitimately put busses on him in the TA, now would we LOL

Ok I watched the video, a few points:
#1 that bodykit has got to be the ugliest thing of earth.
#2 yoru car runs hard.
#3 his car is a dog, even on a 150 shot making 170rwhp more than you, he struggles to pull in a stalled auto, even if it is heavy as hell..
#4 you have some fat white puffs of smoke shooting out every shift.
#5 worst gopro vid ive seen, whats up with that?

...and once again, that body kit is HIDEOUS!

Yep, you're right about the blow-by....therefore my above comment about forging the motor next
And as far as the GoPro situation, I dunno. It was about 8PM, so light was getting low. And another thing....have YOU tried to convert, import, edit and render one of those damn GoPro vids yourself?!? Yeah....it's not easy, so who knows what I might be doin wrong. I thought I did pretty dang good puttin all that mess together considering those proprietary formats GoPro generates...
Anybody else care to weigh in on that situation?? I'm open to suggestions, but if ya start hardcore hatin, Imma come burn your house down cuz I bout set my own computer on fire outta frustration working with that dang GoPro .MP4 file

I mentioned the smoke cause my rings are on their way out as well. I get a hint of smoke every now and again, but its happening more often. Oh well, when the time comes itll be a nice excuse to go bigger I guess.

I was only asking because most of the time the sound is better than that, never had experience with it myself.

Oh, you were referring to the sound quality. I had the camera in the waterproof case (you have a vented non-waterproof case as well). It says the waterproof case is best OVER 100MPH, so thought we'd probably be exceeding that

Totally agreed, your car just makes his look slow! And another thing... you let your friend put lambo doors and a lame looking body kit on his car? Whats up with that friendship? :scratch head:

Power Director 5 Express (from Cyberlink). Try out the free download version first. By far the simplest and easiest way I've found to convert GoPro and JVC formats. Just throw all the different vids up into the left hand screen and it will take care of the different formats automatically as you drag n drop them into the film reel below. I've literally tried every freeware or demo out there and Power Director is the only one that could make it simple AND output a HD video that YouTube accepts.

Quick Note: when done compiling hit "Produce", then "Create a File", then ".Mpeg2" then "(HD) MPEG2, 720P" - Or use "1080P" if your camera can film at that level.
