The photos posted of the cracked front fascia were of a pre-production car. Supposedly the fascia was strengthened because of this for the production vehicles...

I always forget to look at my speedometer, but I have hammered through the gears a couple of times.
When winter is over, and I drive it again, I will have to remember to look at the speedometer. |

164mph @ the standing mile several times, 178mph top speed so far (GPS verified) when I ran out of runway. Completely stable at those speeds (with Pfadt suspension btw).

186 mph @ 6300 rpm in 5th gear.(also GPS verified)
Drove very well, didn't get too light in the front, no wind noise, etc. I have the GM GFX also on my car, so that probably helps also. The Camaro is very aerodynamic, contrary to what alot of people seem to think. The drag coefficient is .37 without the gfx. The Mustang drag coefficient is .46, now that's like an anchor.

FYI the tires are rated to 186 not 155....BMW and Mercedes have been limiting most of their vehicles to 155 in the past as well...with higher rated tires...still makes no sense to me...

There is way to much traffic today, but in the late 80s I could get on the eway and burry the speedo in my 79 Aro and had all the room needed to be so dangerous. Now, I can barley do the speed limit. |
