So here's My question what are we projecting the Camaro SS to do??? Preliminary numbers are 3918lbs 0-60 4.6 quarter 12.9, skidpad of .93 g so for the 800 lb difference I don't foresee the corvette blowing it away!
Go to a corvette forum and ask them what a stock ls2 or ls3 vette run in the 1/4 mile trust me its gonna be faster then the book times. I love the new camaro too but not to the point where im blind to the fact the corvette is the much faster car this time around unlike when it was lt1/ls1 camaro vs lt1/ls1 vette and the camaro was right on the heels of the vette, when you race a c6 in your 5th gen camaro Arcangel your feelings will be hurt on how hard the vette pulls from you!!

And congrads on the car moog5050 i would have done the same thing, I took what could have been a down payment on a 5th gen and swapped an 10k mile ls2 with some goodies in my camaro. the 5thgen weight was the deal breaker for me to want a v8 and a stick shift drop top v6 5th gen is to long of a wait for me.
