I'd say thats a rare z,huh? Well, you can always swear " I'd had ya in the quarter ,but she's only runn'in on six today" LOL Anyways do a search for "2.8 1/4 times" and that should make you feel more sure about it.

I bet mine would run a 12 sec. flat down one of those steep hills in San Francisco, but I'd have to watch those Starsky & Hutch bumps in the roads there- they'd be a b*tch to a lowered Camaro.

dark teal, what mods do you have. Last guy i knew running high 15's had an extensively modified engine, not just a few parts here and there. is this an estimate, or is this a track time, if so, i wouldn't mind seeing the slip. lol....not questioning, just curious on what ya got done, takes a lot to make a v8 heavy car run v8 close times without the v8. lol...hard, but possible.

Mods here stand for Mound Of Dirt Starts. You should try the paved hills, its easier on the car.

Just having fun.....
