Our new SS arrived today...

Camaro

Still working on a pithy name.. but she arrived here Saturday night.

We have until SEMA to transform the car, mostly in terms of performance, but some visual stuff as well. I think Camaro Performers is one of the few magazines with an actual project car.

It's a 2SS/RS M6 LS3 car.

First up will be baseline testing - Slalom, skidpad, braking, chassis dyno.

Then:

Suspension
Brakes
Tuning
engine upgrades
???

Anything involving performance will have before and after testing. After SEMA the SS will be driven in the Optima Ultimate Streetcar Invitational by Camaro Performers Editor Nick Licata. I guess I had better put together a good car for him. lol

Here she is.. since we only get her for the summer I'm leaning towards the name "Project Summer Fling" lol

Looking for story ideas... too bad I can nab an LS9 from GM.. lol
