Default camaro time!!!!!!

well today i finally got to pick up my camaro z28 ls1, its a m6 with slp lid, cat back and subframe connectors. on the way home my dad was driving just ahead of me in our focus and he called and said he would go up a head a little ways to make sure there were no cops or traffic so i could open it up a little bit. man is this thing night and day diffrent from my old 99 gt. im heading to milan dragway on the 15th, hopefully i can hit some mid to low 13's but im not getting my hopes up, i figure its a new car and i gotta get used to it. sorry if this sounds spuratic, im just excited to drive it somemore tomorrow.

Nice ride!!! Get real good with it and maybe you can pull a 13 flat or even dip into the high 12's. It's not unheard of with just exhaust/intake on an LS1.

LS's got a lot of potential. In time though, you gotta learn to be patient
