Im new to this thread, but i will say that if we'all going to the solo event this weekend would be a perfect time for fellow Camaro Brethren to come together, break bread and put our heads together for some track racing ideas and advice so we can beat some Subarus. It should smell like modern muscle out there, not rice!!!

Just my 2c

Thats great. I wasn't bashing or saying anything bad, but at a 15-16% CF that makes 650rwhp ~550rwhp. Craigs car is badass and impressive. Hell my vette only made 605 uncorrected. It better make 820-830rwhp actual when it is done.

SixGracing, can you explain the comp Titanium rods? Push rods I assume? I've never seen and can't find comp Ti pushrods and I don't think comp makes any other rods so you have me intrigued.
Hey Nick, not really sure where I heard Ti pushrods or why I added it, but after talking to my builder, they are simply Comp Pushrods. Not Ti.. My bad.

I should be there. But looking at the forcast it just went from "chance" to "lingering showers".

And the mustang isn't stock, you should know that. It has an Airaid intake from you.

Corrected numbers are fine as long as people understand them and what is going on. Now turbo cars get tricky because the wastegates tend to correct for elevation. A blower at sealevel may make 10psi and 8psi up here. A turbo makes 10psi at both so the corrected numbers on turbo cars become inflated at high elevation.

If my car doesn't make 820rwhp uncorrected with the 3.125" I'll just do a 3.00" pulley. Same thing with my car, no cage. Good thing is RMR has been pretty relaxed on that. I know Scott in the twin turbo cobra that made 930rwhp ran 10.1s with no cage and they have never given him issues.
I know it has an Airaid, exhaust and SCT tuner. I'm giving you a hard time because you told someone at the track it was stock.

Automatic + traction control... It was great running with everyone though.

Sunday and Monday. I'm not running. Just spectating. There's something wrong with My Camaro. After I'm up to temps I have a weird vibration at low speeds when accelerating. Not sure, it almost sounds like a metal on metal high pitched vibration. Hopefully it's just an exhaust thing. I've heard of peoples heat shields coming loose but it's weird that it's only under light acceleration. If something was rubbing against the drive shaft you would think the noise would be anytime I'm accelerating...

I need to take it to the dealer. Not sure if they'll look at it with My bolt on mods though.

Stupid POS Camaro!

Airaid, x-pipe (stock mufflers, pipes, headers, etc), and SCT. I said near stock. Not bad for $700 total invested. 13.00@111mph on stock all season 235 pirellis.

I've been running my Camaro at competitive events for almost 2 years now and have it pretty well sorted. The next thing I'll be upgrading is my wheels and tires; still running the OEM's. I have some cool parts going on it for this weekend though.

SCCA Autocross at the Maverick Center. I'll more than likely run on Sunday depending on the weather.

It is impressive but not stock. Did you get the 3.73 gear option?

3.73 is only an option on manual cars. All autos have the same gears.

Not stock, but close to it. Should have no issues going 12.2s but the end of the year without touching the motor or exhaust.

How do you plan on going 12.2 without touching the engine or exhaust? Nitrous?

Until the motor blows? These engines shouldn't blow if they are running correctly and are tuned correctly.

Soon I will be close to 700 rwhp and sooner or later something will give. One tank of bad gas could do it.. you just never know. Hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
