U sure bout that.....I watched dales video I know it's the 1/4 mile but I don't know if any of those cars cut a 7.9 on the 1/8 mile portion cuz if so that would mean 11.8-12.0 in quarter and the fastest I saw was a 12.2, I know dales old 5.0 would do 7.8-7.9 with his 1.6 60ft on slicks m6

You seem like a frequent racer so just out of curiosity why spend so much into the camaro to run 12's?

For around what you've spent i would think a built 00-02 camaro-transam or even a blown foxbody would be more rewarding.

I dont know your situation or if you daily your car so forgive me if i come off as a dick. not my intentions.

No ur fine I liked the design of the 5thgen I had no plans of modding until I raced 2 years ago at drag and brag and lost to a 5.0 and ever since been racing and modding. As soon as I can get my funds together I will get a blower but in the mean time keep running 12's, but for racing I won't buy another new camaro as they have gone up in price and the 2014's are ugly as sin I would have to get a auto 5.0 or vette next

That new Z28 is a bad motherfucker. It's the first '10+ Camaro I've seen that I really want. n/a 427 ftw

$70k for a 3200 pound 505 hp car that's gutted out with revaro seats, a/c optional, rather buy a z06 for that kinda money or a cts-v

I didn't say I was stupid enough to buy one. I said it's the first one I would really want.

There is no mention of pricing yet. I assume it will be at least as much as the ZL1 since it has more trick stuff done to it, even without the blower. If you factor in dealer markups I could see 70k being a very real possibility.
