Default mid class race Bolton z28 vs Bolton SS

So I'm sitting in class bored as hell reading ls1tech and my teacher says we have an extended 20min break, so I say screw it and decide to take a quick drive to kill some time. As I'm walking to my car I see this Nice green ss that's always parked out front, I can see his ORY so I assume he's bolton. Fast forward a bit, I hop in my car in time to we him taking off, so I catch up to him and we exchange revs going down the hill. Eventually we meet at a stop light and both begin to hold revs, the light changes and my 315 555rs hook nicely and I begin to pull, then a car comes out of nowhere and were forced to stop. I had the win though as he wouldn't have stopped my pull, I guess my new ls6 manifold and being a stripper z helped me out, we slowed down and shot the **** for a second and parted ways, I flipped a bitch and went back to math class, but the final math equation for today is stripper z28 w/ more bolt ons>ss with equal or less bolt ons. All n all it was a fun little race and I can thank my DRs for hooking and my ls6 mani for that extra pinch of power.

That and you are a bolt-on LS1 racing a bolt-on LT1... There's no such creature as a green LS1 Camaro SS (unless it is aftermarket paint or Z28 with SS parts)...

Nice run.

Well it was definately a LS1, the sound differential between LS1 and LT1 is very apparent. Im not positive it was a SS, but it had the badges and wing, and there is a good chance it had been repainted, the guy who owns it is part of a car club around here that has very exuberantly colored cars.

I don't even remember seeing a green LS1 but maybe I'm wrong. I know I have not seen a green SS. Either way good kill and way to kill time in a boring class LOL.

They did make Green LS1 Z28 and even Green LS1 B4C cars but there was no Green LS1 SS.

Hey Scott, Did the SS have a custom plate? I remember seeing a painted green ls1 ss with custom plates from the group high octane when i was at the track a few months ago

Have you considered reading comprehension?

From my original post in this thread:

Nice run.
