Track time predictions...
Anybody have any predictions what the camaros will run? 300 HP v-6, i'm thinking maybe 5.6-5.8 0-60 based on the cadillacs, that would put it close to 13.8-14.1 quarter mile? How about a 400 HP auto w/TABshift? Maybe 4.7-5.0 0-60 and 13.0 quarter? Just guessing, what do you all think?

I'm almost positive I read a 4.6 0-60 somewhere. I'd say high 12s with sticky tires......low 13s with street tires.

I pretty much agree with what's been posted. I think high 13s for the 3.6 and bottom to low-13s for the 6.2. Sticky tires should put it pretty close to high-12s I think. I keep thinking about the weight of the car in general and can't help to be a little concerned, but an LS2 GTO would run low-13s with a good driver, and I'm sure an LS3 Camaro would be at least very close to that. I keep reflecting on an SRT-spec' LX-car and think that it should at least be on par with those, so I think we should be looking pretty good, regardless.

I have a feeling we'll see some mid 12s when people find out that 18" wheels on this car will reduce rolling mass considerably... my guess is 12.46@109.8 for the manual transmission SS with some 18" Nitto DRs out back.

YOW!!! I'd love to see people run those numbers, but, IMHO, it would take a VERY, talented stick driver. Maybe an auto' with a converter would easily run that number, but I think it's pretty optimistic for a stick. I can honestly say that I have only seen one 4th. Gen. driver run low-12s on slicks, WITH LTs, lid, catback, and a tune, and he beat that tranny and 12-bolt like it was his job. It was awesome really. That car weighed 3500 lbs. without him and he was about 220 lbs., and probably put down about 350 RWHP, so I don't expect this car to run low-12s, "only" having probably 350-380 RWHP (those are numbers I've noticed with LS3 'Vettes) and weigh another 400 lbs. without driver. Don't get me wrong, I hope it runs those numbers

12.90's all day long with a decent driver. 12.60's with a great driver and optimal conditions. 13.2 for the average person. But bolt-on's plus cam= >11.50's.
