Impressive for a convertible, I wonder what setup he's running. The only thing that ruins the car is the ground effect package whose chrome pieces in the back don't fit at all with the top colour, nor the paint.

Nice numbers. Of course, we don't know what all's been done with her. Unfortunately with the tracks around here, I would have to put a cage in to run 12.3's (plus modify it which the wife won't allow, lol).

Bulllet, you could run her till you get booted or lift at the 1/8th and get an idea of where you would be in the 1/4.

That's a local guy. I saw him leaving the track day but didn't get to talk him. The word I got was it's a TVS 2300 car and it has since gotten into the 11's.

Go for it! Get it on video and post up. I took mine you the track when it was completely stock and then after every batch of mods.

Yeah, we do that kind of thing all the time. Its kind of a dance. we do a couple of soft runs with a car we know is getting booted, and then a hard run. They yell at us and tell us we can't do that. We then "oops sorry", but later on in the night someone generally does it again.

BUT with the Camaro, I'm not even allowed to drive NEAR a track

Ran mine about a month ago while still stock. 9.4 was my best I think on the 1/8. Video below

My best was 13.2

Hoping for one last track night on what's left of the Pirelli's b4 I mount the Nittos and the wife bans me from the track...

I'm dying to take mine to the track, but the 1/4 mile here states that quicker than 13.5 requires a roll bar for verts.

... Pretty sure I will break that from what I've seen.
