2002 Chevy Camaro SS questions..
OK guys first post here.. and no I'm not a Chevy hater so don't start flaming. (I drive a Chevy too)
Anyways here is the question...
one of my good friends that lives in the same town as me. He said that with a good set of MT drag slicks on his 2002 Camaro SS. All factory except for a hurst short throw, better flow new intake, and 150 shot of fogger (wet). 1. will brake into the 10's in a 1/4 mile. 2. will pop a wheelie get both tires off the groud. 3. out run a busa. standing 1/4s! is this possible or is he pulling my leg??
thanks,
Jye

1: I'm calling BS, if he said low 12's I would believe him
2: No way you can hit that with a stock rear-end and only drag radials
3: Busa is a 9 second bike stock...must have been a slow Busa

as the mighty fuzzy one said.... world record for a stock LS1 is 12.8 so if you live at sea level or below and you friends a redonkulousgood driver 12.7-12.6 with the slicks. then with the giggle juice were talking maybe another second so high 11s. 11 second cars do not lift the tires specially not without a tras brake..... and once again busa is a 9 second bike.....so unless it was "does best boondocksaints irish cop accent" some huuuuge freakin guy..... on the busa theres nooooooo way

Thanks for the reply guys! That was what I thought. I mean I knew they were quick cars.. but I didn't think it was 10 seconds quick.. not with just a new intake, short throw and 150 wet shot.. as far as popping wheelies and out running a busa.. i think he must of had the NOS hooked up to his nose before he told me!

RE: 2002 Chevy Camaro SS questions..
what they said, i can see it hanging with a busa from a roll, def not a dig, and it would need that entire 150 shot to do so... im not positive but im pretty sure 1/2 the reason busas have such a low E/T is because their 60 foot is like 1 sec flat lol, and yeah it is a 9 second bike but keep in mind guys thats with a PRO rider, yeah they are still quick but if you've ever ran a bike at a track its harder than it looks, in my opinion, the front wheel always seems to wanna jump up on u or you can't get off the line fast enough, its pretty tricky.
