This is my SS Camaro. It has a fuel injected 350ci. Chevrolet LT1 V8 and a 6 speed transmission, 4 wheel disc brakes w/antilock, 17x9in. wheels with 275/40ZR17 tires. It is lots of fun to drive; it handles very neutral and slides like a racecar.
 
Car And Driver magazine tested one on 10/95 and reported 1/4 mile of 13.7sec. @102mph, a top speed of 154mph, and a lateral Gforce of .89. It reaches it's top speed in 5th gear. At 2500rpms in 6th gear it goes 100mph. This car gets excellent gas mileage considering it's acceleration and top speed (EPA 26mpg hyw).
 
I upgraded the stereo with 15 inch woofers,CD player,a amp and some tweeters to pass the time while I am cruising at or near the posted speed limit.

I finally got a chance to take my car to the drag strip.
I could not get ANY traction in first gear; my times
would have been much lower. You can see from my reaction time
that it was my first time at a drag strip - nobody told me to go
when the last yellow light lit. I am car #55 on
the time slips (numbers on left of 1st time slip,right of 2nd).
