^^^Just go to youtube and check out bonestock LS1s...... I cant believe however that you think the LS1 Camaros are a average runner of 13.60s !!!! I think you dont like Camaros lol, and thats cool, but im sure every track rat thats on this website will be quick to point out legit times of the LS1 !!! I would hope anyway, theres no good reason to ignore facts.
The mustangs have always had the look and great fanbase, fun to drive and addicting to modify. I can say that and be honest about it. I wont lie on the mustang to make my car sound better, I feel that SOME, not all repliers on here hate the Camaro and its potential so much that they ignore factual information just so there opinions sound more appealing. I maybe wrong, and its just my thoughts.
Anyway I enjoy reading your thoughts and views on both cars, even though I have yet to read one post thats actually a comment on the Camaro lol. Ill leave the envy of the Camaro to myself I suppose
How could I not like Camaros? I wanted one since I was 12 years old, then got one when I was 22. I've had it ever since. I thought about getting a 2002 SS, but needed something with FWD or AWD, so I bought a '02 VW GTI 1.8T. I ditched that car in '05 for an '05 STi.
I've been to some of the Camaro forums, and asked to see dyno numbers of bone-stock cars. It's quite amusing how NONE OF THEM could provide a dyno slip of their own car making 295 rwhp, but they always "had a friend" that had made that kind of rwhp. It was the same story with time slips. "My friend ran this," or "my friend ran that." That's great, but where's
your slip? Know what I mean?
My cousin had a 1998 Z28 with an A4. At the time, I had nothing more than a
Flowmaster MUFFLER, Moroso CAI, and Hypertech Power Programmer, and I
smoked him. At the time, my Camaro wouldn't break 14.10s (with me driving), but I did have a buddy who was more experienced at the track than I am run a 13.80.
I ran into a bunch of LS1 guys at a rest-stop a few years ago, and they were on their way to "SLP Day," or something like that. Out of the few people I talked to, I asked them what they ran, and none of them had run better than a 13.60. I asked, "So where are all of the 13.20 cars?" I got one response, "I saw one do it on slicks," and another one said, "I've never seen a stocker run 13.20s. There was probably one car that did it, and then everybody started saying that LS1s run 13.20s."
Let me bring up Evan Smith again. He ran a 12.80 or something in MM&FF with an LS1 SS, correct? After that happened, the number of people who claimed "LS1 Camaros run 12.80s bone stock" must have tripled.
To this day,
NOBODY who I have personally asked has been able to provide me with a timeslip or dyno slip of a bone-stock LS1 down to the paper airfilter; right off the showroom floor.
And now that I see it even weighs over 4000 lbs, I like it even less.
Maybe everybody I've seen at the track I've ever seen with a bone stock LS1 just simply can't drive.
