Had a C8 keep revving and egging me on to race. On a closed course of course... *cough*... So after about 5 or 6 times of them doing that, I did, annnnnnd destroyed it. So, so much. Also, I changed my spark plugs.

Would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for that one. Not the spark plugs part. Then again, that could be entertaining if there’s swearing involved & blood, yeah, blood, like an MMA fight.

You wanted to see the spark plugs part only!!! Oh I can imagine there was a lot of swearing. It was like an MMA fight in the sense of my car being like a mix of Brock Lesnar and Georges St-Pierre in their prime, and the C8 being a wingless, half dead parakeet. There's a point after about 2 seconds or so where I don't even know if they're trying or not, so I just let off shortly after that. Either way, it's been awhile since I've been out for a drive, especially on the 15" drag pack. It was nice.

Pretty much! I've done many other mods in the 2+ years I've owned the car but my "better half" did mention "mid life crisis"

Maybe there is a market for the "midlife crisis camaro starter pack"

I arguably could have gotten more mileage out of them, but they were on the edge in terms of material left to properly turn them. They were not pitted nor did they have excessive grooving. Just pretty thin.
Thanks for the info. They are indeed very good brakes. I’m at 27k and it’s something that is starting to cross my mind… Debating on the Powerstop ceramics for dust reasons and OEM when it’s time.

In my world, it's also called the "2SS PEG"...first words out of my mouth when I was looking around a few dealerships were "Hi, I'm in mid-life crisis mode and need a fast car again, got any Camaros?"

Washed mine yesterday. Mainly to get the insane amounts of break dust and dirt off it.

Didn't get it perfect and didn't intend to. Been raining a lot here in Southwest Florida and it's already getting dirty again. I just washed it so the grime on the wheels wouldn't get even worse.

In late oct when it cools down it will get waxed.

This time of year it's almost useless trying to constantly wash your car here in Florida.
