Highest altitude Gen6 ever!
Good day Camaro6 nation. I took my SS up to 14,100 feet above sea level today. Talk about HP loss! It felt like 125 of my horses stayed in the barn. The car is still very strong up there but you can definitely feel the NA V8 sucking for air. The road is the highest PAVED road in North America. 100 feet higher than Pikes Peak. Lots of amazing scenery and "wildlife", including a pack of mountain Jaguars. And some type of covered test mule van. Enjoy the video(sorry it is just cell phone video) and some pics. And message me if ever thru Denver with your Camaro and wanting to go "up".

A GPS overlay of my drive today off of my SkiTracks app. Normally used for tracking my ski day but just as well for driving. GPS based so it still works when you are out of cell range....like at 14,000 feet up. My phone died on the way down, hence the incomplete "track."
