this should be good

Rut-Ro, somebody's gonna get a lesson on life.

z28racer · 03-01-2012, 10:00 PM

oh and I have owned high performance manual camaros for almost 20 years. I would consider that pretty good experience! Never looped one!!!!!

Unfortunately your car looks totaled. That looks like it's permanently tweaked. I've had my incidents with far less powerful vehicles that smartened me up as I got older. You've learned a lesson. "It's not worth it." You have you life and you can get another car. Glad you're ok.

I'd hate for this to have been an article posted about another Camaro owner lost.

OK - are you telling me that Al Oppenheiser and Tony Roma and Aaron Wing and Mark Dickens (the people who engineered this car...)don't know how to drive?

The ONLY people at GM that have been given CTF ZL1 driving privileges are those who have gone thru Spring Mountain/Bondurant and the Milford Proving Grounds schools.

I don't mean to be preachy - (but I'm gettin' there) - but I'll repeat: They. Are. Called. Accidents. For. A. Reason.

And for the record: We do make it possible to shut the Traction control/Stability control off for a few reasons - one of which is for performance driving on the track -- as well as to assist when a car is stuck in sand/snow/ice.

I'd give up already, he's probably thinking Al who?
