soo, is this ignoring the 4.8/4.6 est and saying what we think it should have been? cuz in that case a 4.4 was my original guess.

i put the ss camaro weighs 3868 pounds has 422 horses shifts six times has 4.33 tire height and geared at a 3.45 it says 1/4 mile at 12.21 and 110 miles an hour at 3860 pounds for a ss manual at 422 hp it should run. 1/8 7.70 at 88.24 mph. i put it in the 0-60 calculator but it says 3.56 although id be happy with that i know the 0-60 is wrong a dif site says 4.41 |

actually the camaro is less aerodynamic...
I can't remember where it is but I think Scott said due to the front clip that drag coeficient was high. Edit: It wasn't scott. here's the post. FWIW http://www.camaro5.com/forums/showth...ient#post97903

0-60 is nothing but a function of the driver's ability to launch. If you want to talk about how fast a car is you talk about the quarter mile, more specifically the trap speed. On T&T night at a local dragstrip I beat a stock (I assume) WRX by seven tenths, which is buslengths in a quarter mile race. That same car would be competitive if not faster than me if just measuring 0-60.
