did we ever figure out your answer?
a two step is only really used on a turbo car, probably could use it on a sc car but it allows you to have two rev limiters, one with the clutch out and one with the clutch in. so to build boost, instead of redlining it and run the risk of damage and blowing the tires off when you launch, you put a two step in and if you build max boost at 3 grand then you set it at 3,000 so its like a pretend rev limiter so you build max boost and you dont have to watch your gas and hold it at a certain rpm, just floor it and go.
two step is an aftermarket item but with the SS they sorta have that system with the competitive mode.

as to your LT1 comment, my buddy has one and yeah they dont have a rev limiter. but when you hear it tacking out its because its the actual limit on the rotating assembly and it simply cant spin over any faster

Man that engine bay looks like crap.

carbon8 · 10-10-2011, 06:04 PM

Booo on the title. This was more of a peel out not a burn out.

My 97 LT1 has a rev limiter. I think its like 6100 I think, not sure. I've only hit it a handfull of times.

Did anyone else see the exhaust at 29 seconds and see the valve close off?

I hate to say it, but I agree with you. Sorry GM.

Kinda weak for the mother of all Camaros. Super sticky tires and short runway may have contributed to poor results (I hope).

I love the crackle

That was a pretty weak burnout. There is definitely a lot of room for improvement in the ZL1 burnout department if you ask me.

IOMZL1 · 10-11-2011, 09:43 AM

Burnout: Let’s surround your car with concrete and obstacles on 3 sides and give you 100 feet and see how brave you are. Now do it with your buddy's car instead of yours. Obviously this was one of those 'work with what you have' scenarios. A crappy burnout is better than no burnout in R&T’s eyes. For some reason they could not find an open area to do it in? Like an open parking lot instead of that death trap? LOL.

Engine Compartment: Of course it doesn’t look good - this is a test mule / not the production engine compartment.
