I thought so. We should all crash their place when they are doing some of the filming. We can be the Camaro5 support group !! So a few burnouts in the parking lot to get everyone's blood flowing...

Thanks. Yeah the last one was after back to back runs with no cool down. We were worried about popping the heads so we tanked that 28 run at 6,000. Driving it the shift point is 7,200 so it give you an idea of what it is like with a little more rpm... Then when we get to swap the 6-bolts on the boost goes to 38.

1450 at 6000, so 1550 at 7200? Sound like you want to claim an all out LOW 8 second run when you get to 38 and 6 bolts.

Ive learned never to claim anything. It seems that when you do, you get burnt. Our goal has always been to shoot for the cage cert. (8.50) Plus those specific turbos were chosen for the 38 psi boost map. If we can just close out that Body Control Module issue, then time to have some fun.

There is a little info on it on Facebook. I am sure a lot of the Jax/Orlando crowd will support the Camaro contingent...

Interesting. I saw Jessica Barton last year at the TX2K11 race (big Supra race). She's a bikini model, and is drop dead gorgeous. She's not just a pretty face though...she shifts an 8 second Supra, and I watched her folding her own parachute.

No argument here. She is from this area and definitely knows how to drive fast cars...
...and has a twin sister.

The only thing left on the SST is that !@#$%^ BCM. I hope HP Tuners can get it figured out this week.

Yeah, she is pretty hot. Now we just have to bring her over to the Camaro side !!! A true car fanatic... And she can REALLY drive.

Looking forward to seeing this beast at Camaro5 FEST III

Are you going to do any of the LSX Challenges this year with it?

Notice the passenger seat... this was what she was texting...

"Second date? Maybe... if you can keep from screaming like a little girl next time."
