I enjoy all your videos too, most of them are well put together with nice quality work. Your car has come a long ways and it is probably the ultimate street car. I like one of your older videos when you raced a silver camaro, the thing was thumping away next to you with one of your side mount cameras. You took it out of the hole but the the screamed up on top and ran you down. Now I know your car is way faster now, but its still one of my favorite videos.

I know there is more to this video but this is all I could find

And what car do you drive, Mr. zero posts?

And to let you both know, my V6 may not be fast or awesome. Ok, its slow, but I still love it. And some people may not be able to afford the insurance or price tag of an ls1. It makes a great daily for me and serves me well. So, for the needs I have and the situation, I say a V6 camaro is perfect. It looks good, not too expensive, cheap insurance, and sips gas. Who wouldn't love the thing for a daily? I knew when I got the v6 that it wasn't for going fast. So, get off my case.

Yes, I do know it wasn't a competition for sound. I was just making a comment. And yes, I am putting a drag setup on my V6. Where is the problem?

From what I can gather it was a race team Semi truck with race cars inside at a hotel parking lot and the owner is claming it was worth $40000.00

That was almost stock. I have added a few things, and when I start racing it I will most likely be full bolt ons. Skinnies have nothing to do with how fast the car goes, they can always help. Its a matter of weight reduction.
