Heck yea is right, but that's pretty hard to believe. 12.6,...some guys need mods to get a time like that. Was it a manual or auto?

1badSS/RS · 01-15-2010, 06:20 AM

Excellent run. Would like to know the transmission.

ironpeddler · 01-15-2010, 07:40 AM

Bet you he has a tune at least if not 1-2 bolt-ons also. People do this all the time and say it is a 100% "stock" car. Remember, everyone pretty much has their own definition of "stock".

mjf6866 · 01-15-2010, 08:26 AM

if showroom stock, thats pretty damn impressive!

true, and sometimes a freak of a car gets paired with an excellent driver

Hesh · 01-15-2010, 10:28 AM

If Im not mistaken they are a poster here on the boards. The car was to used to put down a base line before any mods were done to the car. The company wanted to see what the car would do before they got a hold of it.

EDIT-yep they are a poster if you go to the fastest 1/4 mile times on page 8 post 190 its user name 2quick.

ULTRAZLS1 · 01-15-2010, 10:43 AM

It is a baseline for the products the company will be making for the 2010 camaro. Why in the hell would they want to secretly mod the thing and make the products they are selling look less effective?

Also...the trap speed isnt out of the norm of what has been seen before. A 110-111 trap speed with a decent 60ft will get you a 12.6 all day.

cmiller8006 · 01-15-2010, 07:37 PM

I think it was mentioned in another thread that there was a DA of like -2500 ft or something crazy like that. So it is possible, look at the top ls3 vette 11.7x bone stock. Now I know the weight differance but theoretically the camaro with a 150 lb driver should be able to hit around a 12.4 stock. Will it happen who knows.

nhra stocker · 01-15-2010, 08:19 PM

I think a 12.4x E.T. is possible from this car stock under the right conditions.

BackinBlackSS/RS · 01-15-2010, 08:28 PM

The driver mod is always overlooked. Lots of people get amazed. Damn, I got beat by a
{insert any car}, I thought my SS was supposed to be fast. Guess what junior, you suck
at driving.

KarFan · 01-15-2010, 10:46 PM

That's the worst drag racing video I've ever seen. Who goes to video tape a car racing and then turns the camera away from the subject to focus on the results of the run? They should have just posted the time slip as the video is useless.

Don O · 01-15-2010, 11:11 PM

With that burnout I'm guess drag radials too. Stock tires don't do well with a burnout. I know, I just tried it last weekend. 9 runs and the ones with burnouts were far worse then the one without a burnout.

Yes it's a bad video, but it's still proof nonetheless.

I looked the DA up and it was -1615 at 38.5 degrees on that pass. What is the weight of an LS3 corvette? When i ran at Bowling Green KY. the car with me in it weighed 3950 with no weight reduction.

cmiller8006 · 01-16-2010, 09:37 AM

Looked it up, anywhere from 3200-3300 pounds without anyone in it.

0-60n4.6 · 01-16-2010, 09:58 AM

Here's a video of the car while at the track. You can the stock tires and the black crap from doing burnouts at the track.

I wasn't there so I can't say anything for a fact. But his 60' time is very common for guys running the stock Perellis.
I've also seen some pretty impressive burnouts on the stock tires. Why they do such a burnout on the stock tires I don't know. I do a short dry burnout (stay out of the water) and pull easy 1.9x 60' times on the stock Perellis.

ViperTomcat · 01-16-2010, 02:38 PM

As was said, when a :
A: Freak Car
B: Freak Driver
C: Freak Track
D: Freak AIR..

Get combined, you'll see unworldly passes. Thats really impressive, but something tells me its not as stock as is claimed.

If the Corvettes best is a 11.7x at 3250 lbs and roughly every 100 lbs is worth a tenth of a second. Well in therory that means a 12.4x could happen! A 12.61 wont be the record by the time this year is done.
