I have owned 2 z28's and now have an 06 Gt and I love both cars and will more than likely own a 2009 Camaro....
Raced a guy in a 99 Camaro ls1 (5 times today) he had exhaust work done and he was driving an automatic. The first 4 races were from a 20mph roll and results were identical each time, I pulled him real hard on the bottom and not so hard on the top. When I reached approx 100mph I was no less than 3 cars ahead. Last race we went from a dig and he got me on the jump (3 honk tecnique with him honking) but I reeled him in before redlining in 1st and then it was basically the same as the other races. We talked for a while after we did all the racing and he stated he was pretty surprised by the results. I told him if I were stock he would have walked away from me, which is probably right. Anyway I had to pay a few $$$ to wake up my stang, that is what it will take for any new stang owner who wants to fool around with ls1's. I miss my Z28 and I am anxiously awaiting the 2009 Camaro's.
