FYI just because it is an SS means nothing. The SS and Z28 are virtually identical. If both cars are equipped with the same trans/gearing they will run exactly the same times.
thats exactly what i was gona post

good run but teach your girlfriend correct information next time

wow was that really needed?
forreal dont get so amped up

and foranyone talking about slow cars,
dont take thingsTOO far. ls1 stang it doesn't matter. whatever you have there is somethin else that can beat it, humble up, if you think your car is that fast show me a time slip and i'll show you one better with the same car with the same mods. and if your that fast, and that good of a driver then upload a picture of your trophy case

and for the record, i said the ss is the fastest camaro, which it is, i didnt say a z28 with the same parts ADDED wouldnt be as fast, SS'sare slightyly upgraded a maro guy said it was an option you can buy it that way from chevy STOCK, more than just cometics, not a z28, so wheres the correction? maybe they should teach you how to read

pipe down, check your ego, im talking about a fun time not the end of the world lol dont get your panties bunched up

First off the SS isent the fastest camaro, the ZL-1 is. Second off it isent more than just cosmetics. Its exsactly that. Both cars have 350 BHP and about 300 RWHP. The only thing the SS has over the Z28 is the hood scoop, spoiler & interrior. The only exceptions were the firehawk & SLP which came with slight modification. All of them run low 13s. Z28 = SS = WS6 = T/A

saying it's not faster implies no exceptions... low 13's means 13.0-13.4 but OVERALL one willbe more likely to win even if it is an EXCEPTION with SLIGHT SLP MODS

of course the zl-1 CONCEPT is the fastest

i know about that but how many of those have you seen?

if your just gonna prove to me that im right because there is an exception that you know of yourself, you know theres a maro ss with slp mods that is more LIKELY to win, save your post stop tryin to rack up points

im not a maro owner nor do i know the history like a stang but i think the car is awesome even if i dont no everything about it. i appreciate the new knowledge i've gained, i now know that the camaro ss was the fastest production camaro in its time with the exception of slp mods, making it faster then the z28 ever so slightly making it more LIKELY to win, the ss is faster, im glad you could tell me that, or did i already know that?

the only difference between z28 and ss is about 10 or 15hp and appearance. thats it
http://www.automotiveforums.com/t145438.html

not to say that its a big difference but it is still an EXCEPTION that makes it faster and moreLIKELY to winif every other dynamic remains constant, thanks for pointing out, well, what i already knew, imma do my homework now, you should do yours too instead reinforcing my previous statement

thats what chevy did to seperate them. In reality they all have 350 BHP. Chevy published 325 to seperate them from the base Corvette which didnt have alot more HP and costed alot more.

Maybe you didnt under stand. The SLP camaro & firehawk T/A were sold under different names, They were not standard WS6s or SSs'. The SS & Z28 have the EXSACT same HP. And with equal drivers they will run the EXSACT same 1/4 mile time. BOTH cars came with 350BHP, Chevy published different numbers, as I stated above.

Sticker price determined the advertised horsepower ratings. The LS1 cars had a very wide price range, from $21k to $50k. All with the same motor.
Notice how it's alwaysnewbs who cry about GM guys being here? I've been here for over 3 years and plan on being here for quite a while. So suck it.

Yea, tommy I see what you mean.

BTW - The 2000 ZL-1 was not the only ZL-1 camaro ever made. They also made a ZL-1 that was an orginal COPO camaro and it was a production car. And the most powerful production camaro ever made. So as I was saying the ZL-1 is the fastest stock camaro made...

i see what your saying about the old school maro being the fastest, never seen a quarter mile slip for that car tho, it would be nice to see what it could do, but im sure you no and you can tell me so what is it? curious, anways i like maro's but it seems stupid to build a car with the same power and call it somethin else, but money is money, it fooled me, i will always refer to an ss as a z28 from now on cus from what you said there is nothing super sporty about it, not one single horsepower difference from the factory,lol gm is stupid

anyways it was a fun race and ill give every z28 the same respect as a ss as to not affend the ego of people who own a z28

lets stop with the bs, i had a good time beating a camaro on a semi-fair race,ill do it again anytime they are my greatest competition and i love the way they idle, will i win everytime? no but it will be fun and thats all im trying post, a fun time, one time, light spankin, on one of my biggest, no longer feared, competitors.

its ok to learn guys, you dont have to get so angry, i beat a z28 that looks nice, i know the difference now, dont loose any sleep over it, its ok to be wrong you cant win them all

competition is what it's all about, lets makeit fun not full of female hormones

im not trying to offend any z28 without the cool spoiler by saying the one with the cool spoiler is truely faster, i didnt no that, untill nowi believed what gm put out, ford did the same with the mach 03-04, it seems smarter to get the cheaper one so you can rest your case now and talk about a fun time you had beating a mach on one day if you have, i like the races stories not the bs, its about the race not what i raced especially since its the same thing so get over it.

if you have anymore to say on that bs subject pm me so we can get to the race stories in this thread between each other, gm vs ford, whatever u want but actual stories not whatthis could do or cant

i dont wanna hear what any car can do i wanna hear about what u DID, in my case, i beat the z28 ss camaro (pretty fairly, the cars are evenly matched and its a drivers race, i wouldnt write about it if i didnt respect it), have you beat any machs, 4v's, or other soouped up stangslately? if so, lets here about it. other then that, theres nothing else worth hearing and you can move to another thread
