The factory all season 245 do not hook at all under full throttle in 1st or 2nd gear.

Can confirm the 245 all season don't provide any traction.

I have 14k on my LT1 and have many passes under my belt at the 1/4 mile track... a very capable car. The all seasons will give you 12 months of great traction on the street, the summer tires will not. For the drag strip you should be getting dedicated drag wheel/ tire anyway which will be much better than any SS factory rear tire.

LOL. No, they won’t. My car is stock and pushing it from a dig it isn’t that hard to break OEM 305s loose. 245s are a sad joke on this car.

The 245s are fine purely in the winter, but you won't be using much throttle on them, they break free real quick.

I swapped up to 285/30 Firestone Indy 500s and the traction difference is unbelievable.

I am guessing that the $599 is the "Dealer Fee." I know dealers can ask whatever they want now for the mystery "Dealer Fee" due to the market. I never pay it. I have walked many times out on a deal due to that nonsense. Sometimes they have called me back and waived it and sometimes they did not.

Bottom line and most important, get what you want and what you can be comfortable with the overall purchase price and/or monthly payments. Sure everyone wants a ZL1. You stated maybe getting a supercharger. Food for thought though. You appear to be looking at a LT1 or 1SS. I have no idea what a supercharger costs. I am just guessing here but say around $6-7 grand plus installation unless your a do it yourself person.

Their quote for the car alone is just shy of $39000. Add the $7k to that and that puts you at a loaded 1SS and pretty close to a 2SS. Best of luck in your purchase.

Yea.. there's been a shortage of parts for a while. Since 2020 I think?



Hopefully you get your LT1 fast.

I have posted this about my orders but my deliveries before so here is a short version. 2021 2SS 1LE ordered early Feb of 2021, delivered over 7 months later in Sept. Ordered my 2022 ZL1 in Feb. 2022. Arrived 7 weeks later. The wait does suck.

Not certain why you’d wait on an order unless you’re extremely specific about what you want as far as options. I’d do a search for what’s in stock or en route to dealers. I’ve recently seen what looks like an increase in 22 Camaros on the way to dealers. At least here locally….

[Wyzz Kydd]

Buying used I compromise. New, I don’t. Color wasn’t negotiable, manual, 1LE, all non-negotiable. I did get lucky and find it on a dealer’s lot though. No waiting.

This does make for a lighter car though (~60lbs) for drag racing. You will have to buy new rims and tires as the LT1 comes with 245's all season all around. 1SS and 2SS comes with 275 rear summers.


My opinion. Get the 1SS. For the extra cost its worth having those coolers if you are going to be running the car hard and you get some decent tires for traction.



For the dual exhaust option I would have it added unless you are planning on upgrading the exhaust later. I love mine. 1ss doesn't have that standard.

Yeah. I have dual mode exhaust with the quad tips. I love that I can change modes from my screen on the fly. I think stealth mode sounds more refined.
