On avrage how agressive do you drive your camaro?
Name the year and trim and how aggressive you drive it from 1 bein like a handicap grandma to 10 bein someone from fast and the furious with no regard for speed limits or cops.I have a 2013 SS and id say about a 6 is where I fall in on the scale I enjoy acerlerating hard when I get in my Camaro once or twice a day. but I don't contniously drive hard everywhere I go just here and there I will red line it =)

Depends on my mood, weather, levels of traffic, roads I'm cruising on. Mine isn't a daily driver, I rarely good days to drive on. Had it for about a year now, put 3,000 miles on it. When I get a rare good day with sunny weather after a gloomy week, I tend to drive it hard. If I'm at the light with no one around me, I'll gun it off the light as I love losing traction.
I try to go full throttle at least once each drive, but I don't get that opportunity. Due to traffic levels or just bad pavement in Michigan where my Camaro can't put the power down well. So I just end up listening to music and cruising. :/ #'s wise, usually a minimum of 2. When the tires like the conditions and there isn't much traffic, about 5-6. I never go 10, because this 6 speed auto isn't the best, and the car isn't the most nimble. Last edited by RagingHawk; 05-04-2016 at 05:14 PM. |

2013 2SS RS ... depends on traffic, weather & location. Decent to good weather, light traffic on interstates/highways - 7-8; in town, same conditions - 5. Poor weather and/or heavy traffic - 3

Put the hammer down about once or twice a week on average. Granted I only drive it from Wed to Sun (mon/tue work truck)... but I usually drive around a 3 or a 5 on the high side. I mostly take off in 2nd gear... more than enough power to overtake most cars still without having to drop it into 1st.
Last weekend I gave a few folks a good show at a six lane streets' light. A bunch of modified pick up trucks began to rev their engines and, well, its contagious... lol... put the hammer down and the tires broke loose from one light to the next (the next light being about 50ft away)... first, second, and the tires were still spinning. Made some folks smile and cheer, then at the second light I took off hard and when I looked back on my rear view, I could barely see the other folks... untouchable! I'm very impressed with this ride and how it rides... still! 2010 1SS LS3. |

I wait for the engine to warm up so no driving daily I do not get on it much, but give me a tailgater speeder like this morning and I make the traction control light go on showing them they need to back off and I go from a 6 to a 10. Mostly just hang a little above the limit like most.

I've had my 2SS/RS for about 4 months. I've been getting more and more comfortable with it, maybe a 7. My mileage is taking a bit of a hit, but who cares. You don't own a muscle car for its mileage.

Normally traffic is heavy in town so a 2, when it's not a 5-6, out min hill country a 10. Probably a 7 for the car but was pushing my limits
