With drag radials it'll be a mid 12's stock part car.

You take that guy driving it, with the DR's on it, some more miles on the engine, I think it might see 12.3x or better
Look at that 60ft... he wasn't even under 2.0 seconds. That's crazy. Anybody that's ever broken 13.0 seconds in a stock GTO had to have a sub 2 second 60ft to do it. I think there's another half a second left in it with more traction.

+1 Jedi54 Go get one!!!

Impressive stuff. I like how they have the video, the slip, everything.

that's pretty damn fast... the more I hear/see about these, the more I'm wanting one. I saw one in black the other night and it was damn sexy.

Performance sacrifice? PFffffffft, more like castration aesthetic wise. God oh god WHY would you want a convertible version of one of these; it's not a corvette to pull the looks off. I liken it to the convertible mustang, makes me want to in any of those cars in a parking lot to give a realistic view of what it looks like.

I'm not against a new Camaro convertible... I don't like Corvette convertibles, because I think theyre a douchebag car.

I can totally imagine taking out the wife with the kids in the back seat, dropping the top, and cruising around the lake hills at sunset with that pretty V8 burble mixed in with the wind

Doesn't sound too shabby.

Sorry but I couldn't tell if the Camero fell apart at the end of the drag strip or not. I hear that sort of thing happens to chevys.

Haha, that's funny.

There's a local Mazda owner that has a 500whp Cobra that went on a drive with us through a local twisty mountain area. Needless to say after 2 miles of me sitting 6 inches off his bumper he pulled over so I could go by.

Depends on your defination of how a real car is suppose to drive.

Though I'd need about a 5 second head start to even finish dead even with him in the 1/4 mile so...yeah.
