I had a 2800, LID, cat back with no cats, tuned, and sprayed a 150 shot from a dig, with 255 MT ET Street Radials, and ran 11.1@122 with 1.50 60ft.

I had stock 3:23s

Well haters can keep on hating, anyone that had something good to say thanks. Like said find another ls1 car that runs flawless thats nearly perfect sides hood and bumper paint havnt some clear issues for $4000 dollars and then I may agree. Of course I would have loved a nice t top 6 speed ss camaro but find one for 4000. I came across I very good deal and couldnt pass on it regardless the convertible or not which actually is very nice and new. Auto thing isnt a problem for me its still fun and hauls ass just a bummer

The auto doesn't kill off that much fun.
2008 Chevy Slobalt
Understeer is when you hit the wall with the front of the car and oversteer is when you hit the wall with the rear of the car.
Horsepower is how fast you hit the wall, torque is how far you take the wall with you.
Hope this helps

Yes I own 2 slow red chick cars & 1 real car!

Exactly. Still spins completely through first and second no problem at all, plus the shift kit+shifting myself keeps me occupied. Car is all over the road even with my good set of 275s. I have to upgrade to some radials being its just going to get worse with mods
