2010 SS Camaro. . .escargot de chevrolet
2010 SS Camaro. . .escargot
the 2010 SS Camaros are not that quick. -- a 5.3L FI undercar cobra can cook one shifting at 5200.
you should have seen their little yuppie redneck faces.

You'll need to hitch up a Uhaul trailer full of furniture to your cobra to make the race closer.

GM does seem determined to make it fail, they stalled the release of the better engine. no RS or Z28 is planned either.
Really sad to see a mfg. with their engineering capabilities falter like this.

Yuppie redneck? Isn't that an oxymoron?
Just think if they would have been driving a new Mustang GT you could have REALLY made them look bad.
PS.. The RS is an option package available on both the V6 and V8. There is a Z28 in the works. They had it planned and then canceled it but it is back in the pipe now, just unofficially. So is the Convertible. For more info on the Z28 see: http://www.camaro5.com/?p=1382

Bring it, beeotch. It will be glorious to smoke a dual roll-bar FE with my mouse motor. I suppose you need those extra cubes to haul all of that add'l tubing, huh?

...and " tons of aluminum"!
Oh and Red, please don't refer to your motor as a "mouse" motor-that's historically the reference for a small block "C-Word".
I guess yours is a big "pony motor".

You could always rent the movie "Urban Cowboy" starring John Travolta.

Those aren't sentence fragments, that's "Steve-o-ese." Pretty easy to understand once you've had a couple of beers or cocktails.

Steve,
You escaped with your life after that race! I'm surprised the car didn't turn into a robot after you embarrassed them like that.

You'd get a kick out of the C/D magazine caparo: Camaro v.s. Challenger v.s. Mustang.
Mustang had the least HP yet after the dust settled, it won the comparison. Go figure. Ford is credited for never ceasing the production of the Mustang (although I wished they had with the Ghia Mustang II. ) . Sometimes, it's not all about power.
