Yeah I couldn’t make it as I was out of town. What are you driving? I have the only 6th gen 1LE in all of the UAE and it is also the only factory Garnet Red car here. I kinda stick out lol.

Nice ride Bill, there is a flat orange GT3 RS inside of an air chamber in my parking garage haha. I would love a Porsche, but my meager paychecks keep me in Camaro territory haha.

Don’t get me wrong, the car has lots of power, but at speed it dies off above 5k. It was quite noticeable above 120 in fourth.

For comparison, my crappy old 83 Z28 is still pulling hard past 120...

Your two cars cost more than the last house I bought! Nice rides, but I like my 1LE better. It went around Yas Marina faster than a GT4 for a lot less cash haha.

Wheel/tire quandary, setup for the track and street

So now that I am getting more track time on the 1LE, I need to get some new rubber for it. In my shed back home I have this setup brand new in the box:

This weekend I made it out to Dubai for a local Camaro club event and the local Abu Dhabi dealer brought a 2018 A10 ZL1.

I get a lot of attention because I have the only 6th Gen 1LE and the only...

The 1LE’s are so bare bones they don’t have an amp. Plus the rear channels have an active Passover that limit the lows. The best way to overcome that is use a DSP even though my amp has high level...
