'02 Camaro Z28 -VS- '00 Camaro SS

Being filmed from the Z28. The SS is a 6 speed and has full length exhaust and an intake lid; the Z28 is an auto and is bone stock. The camaro SS claims he missed 3rd gear in this race. Guess who wins...

auto's are gay that kid cant drive. ANYONE can drive an auto takes a good driver to bang gears.

Auto's are gay? If I remember right you got beat by an a green auto T/A at the track???? Sorry Andy I had to take you down from that cloud you were on ;-)

[GonzoTwn]

sounds like the camera car has a cam and a stall.

[madmike329]

...bone stock like the description says. you might be hearing the exhaust from the other car.

@Quatermain98526 Wait how am I wrong again? I only said one thing lol. But yea I forgot about the intake and what not, so your talking a few hp, big deal. All I was saying was the camaros were under rated for the "big and bad" corvette.

[Quatermain98526]

@mike510 Actually you're wrong again. In 2001 they revised the LS1 engine for Camaros, Trans Am's, and Corvettes. The LS1 received the LQ4 cam, providing more low end torque, and it also received the LS6 manifold intake from the Z06 Vette's LS6 engine. This is why the HP bumped about 5-10 in 2001. So any LS1 prior to 2001 will be at 345 crank, and 2001 and later will be 350 to the crank. Also, the SS has forced air induction, adding a couple of more ponies over the Z28 model.

The auto was already beating the 6 speed at the top of 1st so how is it driver error? lol

[mike510]

@Quatermain98526 Wrong. They underrated it so it would'nt look like your getting the same power from the camaro as you were from the corvette. An Ls1 is an Ls1. Only thing the SS had was the hood,spoiler, and "upgraded supsension".

[suckTTvapor]

This is clearly a case of driver error.

[Quatermain98526]

@xxTeenAngstxx Wrong. The '98-'00 Camaro Z28 had 305HP vs 320HP for the SS. the '01-'02 Z28 had 310HP vs 325HP for the SS.

[Evan12345678]

@xxTeenAngstxx no, same power (at least for the LS1 years).

[xxTeenAngstxx]

Gotta love the Z28. Has a little more power than the SS. I drive an 83 Z28 myself. I havent had the chance to race it yet so im not sure what shes capable of doing.

[Kinsinger02]

haha the kid in the ss is a horible driver

[Quatermain98526]

@Ron8Ten Camaro's have the Ram air hood same as the Trans Am. They are the same damn car, they have the same damn things.
