I prefer that.

I'm working on getting STUDENT DRIVER back on the car and getting a big ricer spoiler on the car.

Kind of super speeders style.

Agreed though, I'm surprised you don't just have a general toolbox in the trunk? Is there something in there besides 3rd world hookers?

I think I have one in the Ram but I'm too lazy to go downstairs and carry it from ram to 5th gen.... (my ram is parked under ground in an underground parking lot about 20 ft under the camaro). 2 flights of stairs are a bitch man.

Then again not even sure if toolbox is still in ram.
Should check tomorrow.

Pretty much to make a 5th gen fast you need to:

Use its weight in your advantage. Invest in hooking. And you're unbeatable.

If you can get 500-600rwhp and hook in 1st with your 6xxrwtq you will be beating 98% of cars.

Not at all.

As long as you don't go out hunting LMR vettes and UGR lambos or alpha GTRs you will see that the formula is literally unbeatable.

5th gens rule the modafucking street.

Then again I don't like running past 130mph on slicks on street so maybe that's why I beat nearly everyone.

In either case i'm ******* awesome.

Don't we hate each other maniwashi?

I forget I'm trying to be serious in this thread.
Drinks cloud my minds.

The ability to produce 603rwtq at 2500 rpm and hook it is invaluable.
You don't see many if any quick 5th gens. And the ones you see can't hook worth ****.
It takes some time and adjusting but if you can get it to hook it becomes nasty.

This 335i is a solid low-mid 11 second car. I think his last run was 11.4 with a best of 11.2 or 11.3 and worst of 11.7ish.

He jumps me on the 2nd honk. And yes, he's also running slicks.




The ability to hook is unknown to 99% of 5th gens.

Say what you want. I use to be a car that would hook in 3rd or 4th. There's no comparison. Spinning ain't winning.

A lot of 5th gens can't hook, but its still a tank with 600 HP. Not really a street slayer. Maybe your definition of a fast street car is different than mine. Maybe you are delusional.

Since when does a 600-700Rwhp car have only 2700# going for him? LOL Even at 3200# (most normal modded fbodys), that is moving!

That's where weight reduction becomes a key .

Stock my car with me in it was 4020.
Then I did some minimal reduction and got down to around 3800ish.
When I put skinnys and slicks on it's somewhere around 3700.
Just need to pull about 4 things off and it's 3600.
