Default Raced a 2ss!!

that's right, while i was in Moab this past week, i raced a '10 Camaro 2SS!

sadly i lost, but hey, i don't expect a stock Duramax to beat an LS3 Camaro

i'ev gotta say, that thing moved like a bat outta hell, i actually think it was victory red. i never did ask the owner what the color code was, but it still looked SEXY ya, and he put about 4 bus lengths on me to 80mph, but it was all fun.

Yeah, I got to drive a 10 Camaro LT for 1000 miles or so and even that thing was fast. Would turn up 7 grand on the tach without a problem. The paddle shifters were badass too. Nothing beat me save for a Viper I ran into somewhere in WV. Very stable suspension to the point that I felt like I was doing 60-70 a couple of times and would look down and be encroaching on 100. I see a lot of tickets in future Camaro owner's futures if they're not careful.

My only complaints with the car were the blindspots and how high you had to have your arm up just to hang it out the window. When you first get in it too you feel like as if you're in a movie theater with a widescreen in front of you. Not a lot of vertical viewing but a good horizontal view through the front.

I hope they were alright. Cars can be replaced... people can't.

My friend was over here with his yellow SS the other day. He was able to pull a 12.9 his first time at the track with her bone stock with the factory 21s on her. Yes 21 inch rims. To say the least i expect bolted the 6 speed cars could go mid 12s very easy.

Yea, those things move out for sure. A buddy of mine just picked one up, and from a 70 roll, he easily pulls 3 cars out on me while I wait for boost. Sadly, I fly by him afterwards, but for a factory car, I wouldn't mind one at all!
