Default Camaro SS

I was driving down the street when a Camaro SS passed me up goin about 70. I downshifted into 3rd and pulled next to him and asked for the three honk. 3 honks later we took off and left him half a car behind me. Seconds race was from a stop and he was at my spoiler

Nice kill, but I have to ask. How in the hell did you talk to this guy at 70mph, did you have a bull-horn or something?

Good kill. SS driver could not conduct his vehicle properly. Seems that you can.

OK, I take the above back with cars being stock.
Stats for stock Mach1 305hp@5800 and 320TORK@4200.
It's possible, I will have to say nice kill. Don't know any 1/4 mile figures though.
