Took the SS to the track, ate some Vette!



2013 SS M6

Density Altitude is 7100' , so that is why it appears slower than average :(

Eh, it's an older LS2 vette, the Camaro driver was obviously better as well. The Vette was pulling on him though, given a little more than a 1/4 mile the vette would have taken him. Also, if they vette got off the line better he would have had him too.

Let's also keep in mind the Vette was actually faster. You beat a dead head lol. Heck, did you actually wait till the green came on? The rollout on these cars has to be over a bulb.
