Unhappy Someone please run a 13.0 1/4 mile!!

I am starting to wonder if the rumored 12.9-13.0 1/4 mile is a myth or a reality. It hasn't been proven by a camaro owner yet, fastest I have heard is a 13.5. I hope we don't get let down and find out we were spoon fed BS. Also the 0-60 time. I read 4.7 seconds then someone else later posted once its broken it will get down to 4.4. I am starting to doubt this as well. Someone prove me wrong please.

Just give it time, these cars haven't really even been broken in yet. Let these motors loosen up a little, I think we might see better 12.9 by a few cars.

I'm curious about your newest signature. What happened to the Black/IOM SS? That pink car is a monstrosity.

I don't think it will happen until the planets align along with GREAT weather conditions (next winter).

Just because your car couldn't do it stock, doesn't mean the camaro can't.
