So much for the claim GM put out there back then of a 13.00@109 from the auto. That was actually posted in the brochure. I don't doubt that a better 60ft would have lowered my ET, but 109 stock? My SS feels much faster when it was stock.

As for you modded buddy... anything can be madde fast. I personally don't have a clue how those cars respond modded.

Your time is right with my 06. My 06 GTO (auto) did a best of 13.3 @ 105 mph in good conditions.

The GTOs (LS1 and LS2) repond well to mods, but they have a very soft suspension (luxury like) that loves to wheel hop. The Camaro SS is much easier to get off the line cleanly without wheel hop.

My 6 speed manual GTO was wheel hop crazy and I couldn't do any better than high 13s - low 14s (bone stock). But with drag radials, I did get it down into the low 13s.

My A4 (auto) GTO was consistantly faster than my M6 (manual) GTO.
