Hmm, aren't hey both mid 13 second cars/trucks stock? I think it could be close. Those new Camero's are big pigs, they just don't have a big bed to carry shit in the back. I know mine will beat one. Please video it for all to see.

not really. The 2010 SS will run high 12's at 110+ mph bone stock. They are a little faster than the SRT8 mopar.

Then it goes to the Camero.

Now pullied and tuned L's should be a different story. But I look forward to the video. If that Camero can't beat up on a poor stock Lightning, Chevy better go back to the drawing board.

I messed with a Camaro SS in Houston this weekend from a 20mph roll in my 03 cobra and he punched from 1st gear and I punched from 2nd and he jumped out about a car because of this and took me a bit to catch up to him.
Camaro would beat a mostly stack lightning I think

ok...:rolleyes:

I guess your really going to be upset to know, i ran bumper to bumper with a bolt on one then.

4 lb lower, some other bolt ons, making 380 rwhp 480 rwtq

Nope, not upset at all. I just know in my truck, it's a waste of time running a 2v mustang. Stock, it was a race but the L would win every time from a dig. In my truck now with 6lber and etc., at the track, I would beat a bolt on 2v with slicks by two or three truck lengths with street tires.

Maybe you have a different experience.

01 Lightning - Stock, except for a K&N Drop in
10 Camaro - Stock, M6

You guys think the Lightning can edge it out? The race will happen soon, and I'll have a video.

well they are both 13 secs rides bone stock so idk the ss might spin hard through first and the SVT would come out on top so idk. would be a dang good race though!

I raced a 2010 Camaro ss with my 2002 Lightning..

1st and 2nd I was ok .. third he got me.. and kept pulling away.. now.. let me explain to u what my truck is..

I bought it about a month ago from a stupid owner who had fabricated hell lot of shit on the hood and 1" thickness bedcover ( Hard top ) WHICH IS DAMN HEAVY..

Truck is stock and it has lots of dirt in the throttle body and intake plenum and am sure the intercooler is hot too.. + I raced him when my trans is hot since I was racing other cars before I met him..

Now am sure with what is in the way.. I'll definatly take him till 4th...

I'd like to see your bone stock, auto, vert GT own a Lightning on a highway pull. Did you pull that comment directly out of your ass or did it just fall out?
