... 'seat time' is the best mod you can do for a car. If the 5.0 is mostly stock and, with a 'lil help, be able to handle almost 2 hours on track, then take it to get started with. Then you can work the Camaro and get it done right the first time.
Here a video link to One Lap at Summit This post has been edited by PF Flyer: Jul 11 2006, 02:08 AM |

Here a video link to One Lap at Summit I probaly abuse that RS more on the street then I would at the track. You may find that hard to beleive but its true. Its not uncommon for the brakes to be pouring smoke, power steering boiling over, t-tops flying off, bent 16 z28 wheels (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rotf.gif) lol.
