At most car show people say how did I put the V8 in there when I tell them GM did it they say they never knew.
RWD Cars pose no threat to me I beat them all the time at car shows

Yeah the quarter mile thing was funny. I am a camaro nut! I have owned so many I couldnt even remember them all. There may have been a RS but no SS. Also the iroc and z28. The only thing I hate about fwd is the torque steer. My 06 cobalt ss is terrible to pull out and floor it too pass in third gear. It wants to pull like crazy, especially if the road is not even. The 07 monte ss, I have only stomped once in a turn and did not like that either, the wheel wanted to jerk around but that was the only time I did it and it was a ling time ago.

yes there was a 1986 camaro SS. the only thing they did to it to make it an SS was included a side skirt ground effects with side pipes.
now if this was done by someone else b4 i got the car idk but if so they did a really good job with it because it had a factory look to it all

in the past 6 years i have owned
86 Chevy 1/2 ton Truck ( 4x4 ) ( top speed 98 MPH )
77 Chevy Camaro ( RWD ) ( top speed 115 MPH if you got 10 minutes to kill )
86 Chevy Camaro SS ( RWD ) ( top speed 137 MPH )
91 Toyota Celica Turbo ( FWD ) Top Speed 142 MPH )
96 Eagle Talon Turbo ( FWD ) ( top speed 165 MPH )
01 Chevy Monte Carlo ( FWD ) ( top speed unknown so far )
all speeds were documented on a 1/4 mile track as i do not like to street race where innocent people can be hurt or killed.
these vehicles were all stock and as you can clearly see the FWD cars simply dominated..
also the FWD had more potential for upgrades without doing a complete engine tear down.

Well its easy for fwd cars to be fast, I love my monte. But for having A LOT of fun, rwd is nice.
Easy to do power stands
Easy to do power slides
You can fit bigger tires
Transmissions aren't a HUGE weak point
No torque steer
Stanced wheels don't look gay
