My brother has an SS2 camaro and was running low 13s stock. Before I went FI my car was about THE SAME as his. Now its obviously not close.

How did the trap-speed or a roll-on compare? The reason I say the SS would edge out the Z is because SS's have run 12's stock. I have not seen a stock Z do that. I only found one vid of an SS vs. a Z on Youtube on the freeway as well. The SS sqeaks out a win. Not a big one, but it is a win.

Most SS drivers end up running low 13s and only a great driver (or lucky) will get in the high 12s stock. From a roll or dead start, my brother would beat me by less than 1/2 a car.......until I went FI and now its not even close.

Sounds about right. Like I said, the SS sqeaks out the win.

It is pretty funny. I don't see the attitude on the 'vette or Shelby forums that I see here, and it cracks me up that guys who DD AMG's beat on their chests WAY less about "owning a nice car".

I never got that oner. It's just another piece of society that is necessary. Yes, it pays well. Yes, you are doing something good, but so is the guy who is fixing someone's plumbing, or stocking the food, etc. Every part of society is necessary for all of the other parts to exist.

Honestly, you'll get a better more unbiased opinion by just reading some of the car mags, online or paper.
