i agree, if i had to choose, i'd go for a stingray or an old camero ss or the tran sam from smokey and the bandit. a friend of mines dad said he had the old trans am and it would pin u to the seat when u hit the gas

the Ram air WS6 is an appearance package mostly, the Ram Air isn't really that beneficial, as the stock Formulas with the LS1s are as fast. I have a friend with a reprogrammed CPU, mild cam, 2500rpm stall converter and pretty much stock everything else and his is running in the high 11's.

My problem is that drag racing doesn't do that much for me. Yay. fast in a straight line, vs. handling -- I'll take a better handling car any day, and unfortunately, handling isn't something that the Fox body Stangs, or the F-body GM's are known for.

I've seen powerstroke diesel ford F350's that run a 10 second quarter miles and they're daily driven trucks.

What is tha t-- 71/73 model? Personally I want a 70 with the 2 piece front bumper - the guv'ment made GM put a solid bumper on it to meet safety laws in 71 I think.

Car looks sweet!! that the Berlinetta model with the vinyl covered roof section? what motor is in it? I have a thing for old Camaros. That one is about as new as I would own though, too much after that and the smog laws killed the american musclecar in about 75.

erm depends on what it comes with Yellow :P if its waht i think it will.. i hope it will beat it lol. :P But yea Those Powerstroke 350's are fast as a lot of those sporty trucks and some of the fast fast cars.. but my uncle has a F250 Super Duty Powerstroke and he was talking to a guy witht he same truck and his engine blew up after 10,000miles. I dunno, not saying they were crappy buit i just think that there turbo is to strong for those engines even tho they are diesels.. and the WS6 was made with the SS Camaro LS1 in mind so it still had to have some speed to keep up with it, even tho the Ram AIr hood is partially a joke and mainly for looks it still adds a small amount of horse power to the engine because of the cold air.. Now the SS Camaro has around 300 horsepower stock.. i didn't bealive it untill i looked up specs.. and they have on average 280-310 hp from factory.... never looked up specs on WS6 but i know they wernt that far behind, because the Formula V8 Firebird was a very quick car.. I mean yea there pretty and yes they sound very very good with exhuast, but you can still tell the 302 5.0 engine witha Borla... it sounds very sexy... :p: and oh yea, i never knew this thread could casue a controversy =-O lol but hey about the drag , i don't mind that much for it, i just wanna see what it is capable of doing ya know? so you can have a lil bit of brag time in ya know? hehehe :dance :dance :dance

Junky, Its a 72 model, was orginaly a sport coupe, and it came with the vinyl top. The paint however is not the same color as the orginal, and stripes didnt come on it either. I think the combination of the top with the red and white makes for a diffrent looking ride.

And since we are not trying to stick with originality here. NEITER IS THE VRROM VROOM under the hood. ITs a small block with a few modifications, automatic floor shifter, 3.42 gears with an auburn positraction. Headers and all that good stuff that makes'em go :)

This is a show car however, stays in a garage most of the time, but I do drive her, she aint no trailer queen. I have had this car since I was 18, I am 29 now, so I guess I will be hainging onto her for quite a few more years....
