Default Giving a BBC the BBC

Brother owned the GTO I raced and he drove it for a while. Lined up to race him after he raced a diesel, but he said his girlfriend wouldn't let him. Ok So was out cruising after taking kids to the park, and see him hauling *** through parking lot to catch me. So I turned my go pro from the front to the drivers side.

Oh he was. He's the one that started downshifting and hit it first. I just simply drove around him. He lives around the corner from me. I can get a dig with him if you want it to look worse for him?

So that Camaro has what...a summit 383 kit on a junkyard SBC, home ported iron heads that barely flow 230cfm, a 3/4 race cam with whopping 208 duration, 2.73 gears for the highway cruisin', and a bitchin chambered flowmaster that is worth -4hp but sounds badass? 14's never looked so cool .











JK, nice kill. I love E55s and am a huge AMG fan. Nobody else has cars as fast with as nice interiors as MB, period. When I picked up my C6 I almost got an 08 C63 AMG instead but it had 45k miles (vs 18k) and wasn't in nearly as good shape as the Vette. Even started researching mods for them since I really freaking liked it lol. An AMG is still definitely on the "one day I'll have one" list.

I know parts are crazy expensive for them but any plans to mod the E55, or just keeping it stock as a DD?
