Re: Camaro hill climb

4,000 lbs

We need to get a light and powerful thirdgen in that prestigious 3.41 club. Is this the event were the Porsche owner lost his life last year?

Re: Camaro hill climb

4000lbs 5th gen. ouch gm needs to step up and loose some pounds off that chassis.
looks like a fun course yet dangerous..

ive taken my car out to Glendora MOuntain range about a year ago when i got my brakes done. fun but can get scary. lol
too much brake up front IMO and i was in need for tires, and SFCs.

yeah that accident in the Porsche took place last year?
