Your kill story would still hold up in here if you only had a lid & cat back. The GT500 owners can never drive and the teenage LS1 drivers with 750 extra pounds could teach Evan Smith a thing or two about driving.

You use a brush when washing your car?

What do you use to clean the interior with?

How often do you wax, and what kind of wax?

hendrixx

yes, that is exactly how ridiculous I have made this thread, thanks for pointing it out with a smartass comment


and I use a extra soft bristle brush, its like silky smooth hair or something haha... this is the closest pic I could find to looking like what I use... http://www.rona.ca/img/product/medium/0455003.jpg

but to be honest I dont even use that... I use a wash mit... I just have that brush with me at work for when I do the trucks its much more convenient... never actually used it on the camaro yet...

To clean the interior I use special cleaner from automagic, and for the air vents, radio, and all nooks and cranny **** I use the glass cleaner, spray over the area, wipe it down, and blow out the crevesses with my air hose to get all dust and dirt out...

I dont wax the car every day, I actually dont wash it every day either, I did today cause the back end was full of dust from driving... I hand wax it I guess once every 2 weeks or so (havent had it for too long yet)... when I wash it though I usually use quick detailer spray wax which is nothing really, but it keeps the water running off = no hard water spots in the morning after the rain fall..

satisfied? or am I doing something wrong??

Yes, don't use glass cleaner except on glass surfaces A good OTC product is Meguires "Natural Shine". Even though it may be A/C vents and whatnot, most not all glass cleaners contain ammonia and not so good for your dash which you will usually get with overspray. Just trying to help, fellow detailer myself....hobby anyway. Try getting a soft bristled brush or toothbrush to get cracks and a/c vents.

lol, thanks for the tips... I use automagic stuff from work, we use it for the specific reason that it doesnt have ammonia... drys perfectly not a water line or mark on the dash... plus, I only used it once, I keep my car clean so I wont have to do it again for a looonnng time haha.

May I suggest a good coating of Brake Fluid on your paint to give you that brilliant glossy shine.

jk...Hendrixx...... It sounds like you have a clean fast ride. I know how you feel about your Camaro. When I had mine, I treated it the same way!
Nice kill......just be safe out there....

It'llrun

The point was, the 2011/12 GT500 is capable of 12.5's and quicker, factory stock. You said your car has run 12.5... That's all good and so forth, but there's NO chance you'll be seeing 12's with an additional 750 lb in the car. It's more likely to run a 13.4 at that point than it is a 12.9. That's the catch for anyone who's ever been into drag racing. We know that adding weight will slow nearly any car. Since yours was always slower than the GT500, it's just hard to imagine you slowed your car down immensely and then outran what was clearly the quicker, more powerful car. Bad driver or made up story... doesn't matter to me, but it sounds a tad less than believable. That's all. Without the additional weight, it would be a close race with nearly anyone driving the GT500 and you driving your car(or whoever ran 12.5). I mean, you surely didn't go drag racing with all those people in your car down the strip.

What everyone is saying...

A kill is a kill.... So, good kill.

However, don't expect the same outcome with every single GT500 you run across.

hendrixx

lol I competely understand where youre coming from, believe me the last thing I expected was to win, and I didnt even think about it till after the fact that I had 3 people with me...

btw.. in other news, went to cayuga this weekend... got on the road course for free at the end of the night, did 3 laps, ****** crazy in the camaro... she handles good... over steer in the 4th turn and thats it cause its like a 270 degree turn... got to just over 200kmh in the straight... fun times... just as I got off the track it started pouring, and then me and my 4 buddies camped out over night (cscs was the next day), we were the ONLY ones at the track camping... no one else... we could have run the 1/4 mile and road course if we wanted... in the dark and rain though great time though, fun day today too at cscs... 3 cars blew up, and one civic crashed into the wall at 160MPH at the end of the 1/4
