To That Guy, our tests are under no way bogus. Our Benchmark testing that we did, were not done by us. They were done by some professional drivers.

We do know that we can do partial tests on various levels. Most of our tests, including the 2 GTOs here, were done with our 2 versions of our Track II.

No for the bull!@#$%^&* Edmunds evaluation, the test was done on a very dirty lot, while the drivers were "challenged" dealing with the power the motor produces. The very next day, a serious magazine did the exact same test and it was SERIOUSLY different. I cannot reveal it yet, but the article should be in print within the next 4 weeks or so.

But lets go back to the Edmunds test. They also said the SS stock Camaro will only turn a .83g I believe. Now this should be the first alarm because multiple mags have done the exact same tests with the SS turning a .90g and the 6cyl with 20 inch wheels turned a .93g

We will be doing 2 track testing in Texas in the next couple of weeks, and also another track testing in AZ. We will be given the time to do our analysis, including corner weighting on the newest 2 versions of the Hennessey Camaros.

The editor of Edmonds, has not returned my email!

It said the stock camaro was .88 g's. The stock GT500 in that article, for comparison sake, did it in .93. Didn't seem to affect it too much, maybe the surface wasn't as bad as you thought.

regardless, Pedders should do a test of the wheels/tires on the stock cars for a real comparison if they really stand behind their products. It's misleading otherwise.
