It depends what you consider "bad". Given equal drivers, I would say 4-6 cars through the 1/4.

That being said, the C5 Z06 should be noticeably faster than a '10 Camaro.
agreed ^ I'd say the zr1 is stupid fast lol

The C5 Z06 will smoke it. The Camaro SS is about even with an LT4/LS1 (vette) at this point, if not a tad slower. Gotta shave some weight!

what??? the hp to weight ratio is better in the 2010 but the drag co must be playing a huge role

the vette is roughly 600 pounds lighter than the maro and more aerodynamic thats the problem.

well, the aero does play a small role, but it all depends on the speeds. At about 120 mph, the '10 Camaro's aero drag is killing ~15 rwhp more compared to an fbody.

Is it? I don't think the new ones are. My old 68 had a big old plate that said, "Body by Fisher" (F-body).
