Already a 2016 Camaro in the 10s

[1quick]

good edit

a 150 dry shot isn't too intense of a power adder though... that's something that could be thrown on a leased (or even rented) car and taken off in a matter of minutes.

wet shot is pretty much the same they have a rail adapter and 1 extra 2' line to run from the rail to the plate or nozzle

right!?!


that's what im sayin'


meanwhile we got [MENTION=5]Mook[/MENTION]alya Maroney not bein' impressed.

Cars are stupid fast from the factory now. Hitting 10s out of the box happens pretty quick these days, usually with minimal effort. Is it cool, of course. But am I gonna be impressed? Not really.

I also think the car is still ugly. Come at me.

 

[Yaj Yak]

OH I WILL BRO.

I'm not reading all of this, but why are we impressed when a car runs 10s with a 150shot, DRs and a tune? Let me ask you a question, would you be impressed or disappointed if it ran 11.0?

 

[blakbearddelite]

On motor, very impressed.

Man we are spoiled as fuck now. Before LS cars, getting into the 10's was lots of dollars.

I'm more impressed with UPR running 8s on a factory IRS mustang!

Technology! Manufacturers playing the HP game helps a lot! But also Tuning, turbos, SC, nos, etc... came a long way in the past 10 years too!

This car is 50k... So it still takes lots of dollars to hit tens.

 

[Yaj Yak]

which car is 50k? i thought ss's started at 37,9 or something

 

[IceCreamAssassin]

Still a factory car with minimal "help". I built the fuck out of my LT1 and only got to see low 11's (some was probably driver error)

They do. All gussied up they'll hit $50k though.


I'm impressed at 10's.

 

[YoushallgoFo]

Its a chevy, it'll be half the cost in about 2-3 years and you'll be able to get yourself a relatively new car that does 10s-11s with not a whole lot of work. Compared to low volume cars that don't lose value like hellcats and cobras this will be the car to get in that time even if those other cars are a little bit faster. People still want 20g for 04 Cobras.

 

[Yaj Yak]

i don't think it will depreciate that rapidly.

most chevy's are holding their value quite well now it seems.

 

[firemandan1700]

That's apples to oranges my friend... yes the hellcats are $65k... but they come with 700hp AND a warranty - [MENTION=22]syP[/MENTION] car no longer has a warranty - plus much money did he put into the car afterwards? I don't know the exact details on his car or if everything was new or if any parts are used, but for the comparison, add all those parts to the car at MSRP and the initial cost of the car and the fact that you no longer have a warranty... apples to oranges

By no means am in knocking syps car, or saying the hellcat is better, just stating they're totally different

Once you start racing any car, I don't care who you are, you won't gove 2 shits about warranty

Bolded the error.

 

[Mook]

I'm gonna put this vid on the FB page later today and ask the question of impressive or not and see what replies we get.

 

[Yaj Yak]

it's facebook.

where everyone dates super models, lives in mansions, and has 8 second cars

 

[Mook]

I dont have any of those :wtc:

 

[RICH17]

I have all of those........in my make believe place

 

[YoushallgoFo]

even at 50k there arn't many cars brand new that are this fast.

 

[Turk]

This car isn't that fast brand new either. It had nitrous, tune and DRs.

119 mph trap and a 11.7 is pretty fucking awesome for a tire/tune car though 6 days into owning it.

The amount of days owning it doesn't mean anything to me. That doesn't make it any more or less impressive IMO.

 

[YoushallgoFo]

I'm more impressed with the non-power adder time. I really can't think of any new cars that do 11.7 for under 50k with just tires and a tune. Except maybe the GT.
