New Camaro got OWNED!
 
So, I was heading up the street to Taco Bell the other night for some late night NOMZ, when I spot a new Camaro. I of course switch lanes to get the full view of the car. It's nice. Silver, stock V6, non-RS. I'm looking at it like, not bad, but not what I would buy.

The light turns green and I take off slow not trying to race, but since I had my windows down I hear the lady just jump on the throttle making that V6 roar. I was like ok, time to show her I have a V8 and not a V6, and I floor it.

Needless to say I made it Taco Bell faster than I anticipated with her following me.

Kinda made me laugh, cuz her v6 makes as much hp as your v8....

But the monte is about 200 lbs lighter and makes more torque.

I saw a LS3 SS/RS take on an older LS1 SS. The LS1 sounded sweet as hell, lots of money put into it. The LS3 got the jump but the LS1 totally pulled and flew by.

I was following the two through town hoping they'd race and my buddy and I were about to give up at the last light. They decided to race out of town out towards WyoTech. I was floored before I realized it lost them in just a few seconds but man did the sounds of those LS engines sound sweet. I couldn't even hear mine.

them new camaro's are real nice i think... i work at a chevy dealer so we get to see them all when they come through. i noticed that they recently started to produce a hennessey package you can buy for the ss models that includes a blower, rims, suspension and a stripe kit... puts them over 700! and i think they look mean as hell too...

i know some people might not like them but i think these new camaro's are pretty bad ass looking!

Awesome kill! I still really want a Mustang GT. For some reason I haven't been able to really "race" anyone with the Monte.
