Default V6 VS 2010 Camaro V6

I pulled up to the light and to my amazement there was a brand new yellow Camaro V6. I threw a couple revs to let him know I wanted to play and he revved back. My mods are K&N filter and 75mm tb + spacer. Anyways, the light turns green and I drop the clutch @ 3k rpms and hook instantly leaving him in the dust off while he spins out for a few seconds, once he gains traction I see him catching up and once he hits my back 1/4 panel I start I shift to 3rd and started pulling almost instantly... we shut it down @ 110 with me ahead by 2 car lengths.

We did a 35 roll with me in 2nd and he got the jump on the honk, but once I hit 3rd I just kept pulling and shut it down around ~95 since I was a few lengths ahead and he had no chance. I gave him the thumbs up and he did the same and we we went our ways..........

All and all it was fun would definitely do it again

Here's the beast:

VERY interesting. I think the camaro needs a driver mod. 1/4 mile times are 14.2sec at almost 100mph.

The new v6 Camaro makes more power than the new GT's.....they're rated at 304hp. You're either absolutely full of ****, or absolutely full of ****. Did the other guy know you were racing?

LOL at dumping at 3k and dead hooking. You running slicks full time for that torque monster?

With all the time i've spent at the strip I could be your father. And actually the 2010 mustangs are rated 315 hp so you're wrong.
