I've seen it. It's cool to know that the Camaro did what it did with its factory stock stuff. With the exception of the belts being thrown.

I have a 928 in my fleet:an '81 5-speed,tough and reliable-just like my '82z 
when I bought the Porsche,I thought it would have a very rigid chassis-nope,just as floppy as a stock,non SFCd thirdgen...Naturally the Porsche does have better brakes and suspension and does behave a little smoother in certain performance driving situations the z28 is my fave though.
