First 300 hp in a vehicle like the camaro would require 2 wheel drive on anything less that dry road conditions. Don't count on traction control because a car with posi and no traction control can out accelerate a vehicle without posi and traction control on wet surfaces. The posi car has double the amount of contact between the tires and the road. Also keep in mind that the axle ratio on the manual and auto are both 3.27 adding insult to injury. GM needs to get their heads straight on this issue. Does anyone know who I can write to at Chevy that will listen to reasoning.

IDK why they did that, maybe because it interferes with mileage
