coming home from shopping last night there was 2 kids in a newer red camaro s.s. in front of me sitting at a light---when the light turned green the kid jumpd in the left lane right away so i would pull next to him next thing i knew i looked down at about 105 and he was a good car and half two cars behind me--so so sad---the next light he wouldnt even pull up to me--i was pretty excited over this cause it was a serious chage of pace from the usual honda civics or vw's that try to race me---good stuff

Cool mang. Glad you wooped him.

I surprised you pulled until 105mph, those LS1 are beasts on top end.
Good job.

very good kill. But very surprising as well. The SS is a beast. Capable of mid 12's w/ stock power.

Could be driver error on the SS side. The Jeep SRT8 is a no brainer to drive (i.e. nail gas and steer). The SS in manual form requires much more driver skill to nail 12's in stock form.

yeaa definitly--everytime the kid banged a gear i creeped further away--he didnt seem to hep

Not quite. Try high 13's, 0-60 in 5.2

I think those test figures are a little weak. A last gen SS should be good for low 13s to 13 flat, but nowhere near mid 12s.

Slap a pair of drag radials and a decent driver on a stock LS1 m6 and it will run 12 something.

I had a friend w a Ram Air TA and he ran 13.40's w drag radials but he had a 97 which had less power than the later ones... 305hp If I remember correctly.
He used to smoke the stock 5.0 coupes back then.

FWIW my bone stock 2001 Z28 M6 went 13.4 @ 104mph with a 2.1 60ft @ 3200DA...

Good Kill... might have been a poorly driven M6 or an Auto..usually (just looking at trap speeds) it should have been in the LS1s court..but a kill is a kill.

High 13s?? Maybe with a Motortrend driver behind the wheel... ;)

i remember reading a mag on 2002 ss ran in the 12.90's and he was a good driver

had a 96 LT1 and 2000 WS6 with a LS1. The LS1 was seriously choked by the factory exhaust. Stock ran 13.4's and with a mid and catback change ran 12.8's. They actually flattened the mid pipes down perhapsto make it stay behind the Vette in the pecking order.

97 is the LT1, those things were 14 second cars with street tires. Way different beast then the LS1.

Exhaust was flattened for ground clearance. You're righ tabout restriction, as well as the intake system was hideous too. Open them both up and free up horseys! The LS1 is very 'bolt on' friendly. In my M6, I had 4.10, still got 20 miles/gallon and couldn't stomp it less than 60 without roasting street tires. My brother has my car now in Houston and he's already talking smack on the jeep. I had to tell him by the time we line them up I'll have whole top end job and all the works that go along with it from HHP.

Pic of both right after I got the jeep.

Yes, but obviously the SS was not running slicks in this kill story, so that particular SS was not capable of mid 12s on the street. Therefore, the kill was not a surprise as Gorilla WRX stated.

97 is the LT1, those things were 14 second cars with street tires. Way different beast then the LS1.
He had bolt ons at the time and drag radials which helped a lot... I think it was actually 13.70's he ran...you're absolutley right.

I had a 01' SS and ran a 13.56 @ 105.8 2.1 60" at E-town. After mods, Long tube headers intake LSI edit (dyno tune), etc. it made 357 rwhp / 361 rwtq at Carytek in Garwood NJ. With drags she was good for easy high 12's @ ~109-110. I miss it!!! Long story short LS1's run hard, especially with mods...

yeaa by the sound of it the kids s.s. was definitly a stocker--had no serious rumble to it

Well, no matter hwo you slice it, it was a good kill...There's not much to race around my area. Small town, short streets, lots of two lanes.

Ok. Friend of mine had an SS. Intake, catback, tuner, (not quite stock, but i consider that pretty much stock). Ran a set of slicks, ran 12.4 w/ a 1.8 60 ft. This was at sea level, on the same day my 06 wrx w/ accessport and catback ran 13.2. I dont care how you put it, it was a good kill, and seeing that most SS's have some mods, it is kinda surprising. (we are driving a 5k lb truck!)

I've raced two SS's so far and beat both of them off the line up to about 90 mph or so. The second one cought up to me and wanted to run again from about 60 and I noticed a big difference. Around 100 it felt like my SRT was starting to give up some ground quick before I shut down. The same thing happened to me with a Crossfire SRT6. I kept killing this guy off the line. We hit some open road and his suppercharger gave me a fight at higher speeds. The JGC SRT is a beast out of the hole but I've found that the extra weight does start to become a factor at higher speeds and longer races without mods.

I keep this sucker around just for these occasions.. :) Evan Smith is the man.
Will post when I can..

Yep... I ran 14.1 @ 97mph on a 2.1 60ft with a bone stock automatic 95 Z28. :)

I have to give my respect..you guys haul ass off the line... if we could launch that that...WOW. :) Dodge is coming up with some pretty cool stuff lately *hurts me to say it* ... LOL

We are pretty aerodynamic (not near as much as the C5/C6 vette but we match the current Z06) so our strong point is the top end rather than getting off the line. :)

Exact same happend to me. I raced an SS off the line and had him till about 85 then he started to pass me. I also raced a buddies STS and with two passengers in my X and I smoked him off the line, over a bus length... then we raced from about 70-100 and we were dead even, but I had two friends with me... an extra 450lbs.

I also raced a Mustang Mach1 from about 20-100... he jumped me and he slooowely pulled me... was about 1.5 cars in front at about 100.

But yes SUV's are heavy and the aerodynamics kills us on high speed runs. Thats why I cant wait to slap on the twin screw.

There you go. Those are the type of magazine editors that should be getting test data for the mainstream mags.

There may be a handful of drivers in the country that can repeat Evan's feat with the stock SS. Typically they are low 13 second cars with good drivers on a well prepped track.

yea a stock 01-02 with DRs will run mid to upper 12s. My 99 ran 13.0 stock on DRs. With bolt-ons I ran mid 12s and with H/C I ran 11.80s. I should be in the 10s with my turbo setup. The LS1 is the most friendly motor when it comes to bolt-ons. However, when you take the heads off a hemi it looks exactly like a ls1 short block.

Nice kill but definitely not a great representation of an SS's potential.

Damn I run better then this :D ;)

Sheesh. Yes, it was an accurate representation of an SS on the street. A stock SS is not going to be running heated drag radials on the street and is definitely not going to hook at well as they do at the track. The SS was out of it's element and got spanked. Just live with it.

once again this is not a representation because most intelligent F-body owners DO run DRs on the street and on a stock car they dont need to be heated as long as it isnt cold outside. As I said good kill but if you think that is the norm you will get your feelings hurt. I'm not taking anything away from him just saying dont count on this happening to you.

thats such a ricer view of stock

our srt8s are capable of mid 12s with headers catback and cai and tstat

Yes, stock vs. stock means down to the factory installed tires.

Uhhh. Who's anyone to say how many F-body owners you'll come across and if they'll be..A.) Stock B.) Have Drag Radials C.) Be slightly modded D.) Auto or Manual E.) Crappy or decent driver......

The point is, you never know what you're up against until it's over. Nobody's taking away from F-bodys. No one is saying they can't run in the 12's modded. And no one saying every F-body will get beat. Just the same as not every F-body will be up against a stock Jeep either.

However, there's less driver error involved on our part due to, Automatic trans, gearing, all-wheel drive, etc. The Jeep will launch pretty consistently from any stop light in the country, providing the driver mashes the gas. The F-body however, gets highly variable depending on who's driving, if they're "intelligent" enough to have drag radials (which 70% of the ones on the street that I've come across do not.), if they're modded, auto or manual, etc. It is a "representation" of what can happen because the two vehicles, if neither modded, are close enough to be anyone's race. NO one can say how many F-bodys should beat X amount of Jeeps....or vice-versa.

F-body's are great cars and have way more power/weight potential then our motor as of now. In this particular case, the SS lost and no one said it will happen every single time we come across one. Stock vs stock it's up in the air. Modded, anything can happen also... For fu&$ sake, it's not like the Jeep beat an Enzo or anything. :D

Good kill to the thread starter.:cool:

Yes, stock vs. stock means down to the factory installed tires.
Agreed!

Some of you guys are being way to defensive..trust me I understand the need to stick up for your car.. but a kill is a kill..and this isn't like a honda owner claiming to whoop an F-Body from a 50mph roll on.

Good Kill...

There may be a handful of drivers in the country that can repeat Evan's feat with the stock SS. Typically they are low 13 second cars with good drivers on a well prepped track.
Agreed... I ran a 13.4 @ 104mph on a 2.1 60ft at 3200ft... I am hoping to get some good DA at my local track here (600ft elevation) and click off a 13flat if not a little better (one can hope)... I know of a dozen or so people personally that have hit 12s stock... just took great track prep, great weather, and a great driver. :)

thats such a ricer view of stock

our srt8s are capable of mid 12s with headers catback and cai and tstat
"Ricer view of stock" dude, your an ass. I wasnt cutting anybody down, I was just telling my point, i also have repeatedly stated it is a great kill, and that i didnt realize that our jeeps are that strong. Personally, I just thought from my experience, as my buddy ran really well with those mods, a stocker could do a 12 second pass. My apologizes, i must be wrong.

If I didnt have a WRX as my avatarr, would you have said "ricer".

Get over yourself. And have a great day.

Damn I run better then this :D ;)

Now if you could do it
A) Stock
and
B) for 22,000.00 (cost of a Z28, which also is noted in the article as running 12.80s)

Then you would have some bragging rights. :) LOL

And I get a Pinto in the 10s for less than 5k. What's your point? The whole "my car cost less to go that fast" argument is completely retarded. You're comparing the price of a car to that of a mid-sized SUV.

BTW, I'm guessing that you created an account here just for the sake of defending your precious F-body. Care to post the link to your regular F-Body board where this thread is being discussed?

Proven FACT!


I love how anytime SS is mentioned in a kill the trolls come out of the woodworks, the SS boys and Vette guys are the BIGGEST bunch of cry babies on earth. Deal with it light to light you will get spanked by these SUV's, and that my friends is a proven fact. Now after the 1/4 mile is another story.

Whats even better there arguing about a sports car vs an SUV this argument is already lost!!! I love it!

ERM... ok.. jumping down people's throats must have been in the registration rules but I think I missed that part. The point was why brag that your modded car is faster than what a stock car did?? If you would have posted you ran 12.7 stock that would have been impressive... instead it was said that an SRT8 ran better than that modded... congrats your modded vehicle is now better than the stock one you compared yourself too. I merely pointed out 2 conditions where it would have bragging rights... apparentlly upset the natives a bit in the process.

FWIW you guys need to lay off... I gave respect where it was due and haven't said anything negative about the SRT8 Cherokee... if you mixed me up with the guys causing trouble great but if being an ass to people is how you want to represent these forums you guys are going to end up like the MB crowd. :rolleyes:

Oh and for your amusement there is no link anywhere that this is being discussed at... I was looking up information because I've heard the results you guys have been having and they are pretty impresive... I didn't realize owning something other than an SRT8 was cause for acting like an ass to anyone who doesn't. I guess I can end this with a question.... who pissed in your cheerios today?

A stocker ran 12.7 and your point is?

Way more impressive than what a modded one is capable of, especially when comparing to another vehicle that isn't modded.

Proven FACT!

Only an idiot would dispute it... and you guys should be proud of it. It's extremely impressive.

Where did I jump down your thoat? Nowhere. Why do people always think that because there is a disagreement, someone must be acting like an ass?

Don't look at me for bragging about how fast a modded one is.

I mixed you up with the guys causing "trouble" because this is the only thread you have posted in. You have shown no interest in other threads. This lead me to believe that you were here to just here to defend the SS. However, I believe I posted that I was guessing.

"Ricer view of stock" dude, your an ass.
Hardly. This is what you wrote originally (seems you've already forgotten?)

very good kill. But very surprising as well. The SS is a beast. Capable of mid 12's w/ stock power.
Not even the TBSS guys consider Intake, catback, tuner, and slicks close to stock. Stock means showroom stock. The only grey area that exists to anyone worth their salt is free mods (removing airfilter, sway bars etc).


a stocker could do a 12 second pass.
And so can a stock SRT8 GC. Not going to happen to the vast majority in either vehicle though. That said, the GC is far easier to drive and is a beast on the street. Smart money says that over a 1/4 mile a stock GCSRT8 will beat a stock Camaro SS on the street every time. A great kill on the OPs part but hardly surprising.


If I didnt have a WRX as my avatarr, would you have said "ricer".
Uh yeah.


Get over yourself. And have a great day.
Yea you too bub. :rolleyes:

Wow I'm sorry but if you truly believe that you're an idiot. Sure some SS drivers will get outrun but if you truely believe that anyone that knows how to launch a SS car worth a damn is gonna get outrun then you must be high. I'll have to say that I thought some F-body owners were bad but you SRT8 guys are worse. As I have stated MANY times that was a good kill but its not the norm and you know it. Yall can go on thinking that your Jeeps are the cream of the crop but the fact remains you'll get smoked plenty of times light to light. An auto SS is not any harder to launch then an SRT8.

Peace.

First off I dont beleive I can out run or launch better then anyone, second that was not directed to you. But this puppy can launch and im sick of every time an JGC SRT8 takes whatever, here comes the flaming. It may not be coming from you but ive been reading it even since this truck came out.


I dont remember bragging about beating any F bodys or any thing else for that matter....Anyone? Anyway....

And if your talking about the the TBSS the only one around here ide personally worry about it TonyGXP's.

Props T!




Aiight......Yall....

I love this thread!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is apparent you have not driven or race one of these Jeep yet. On the street you will be hard pressed to beat it to 80MPH. I have raced cars with Drag radials on the street and they can not get out of the hole like we can. I also raced a 12.4 modded GTO with me only haveing cat back and a CAI I held him off to 105. So Inferno is right On the street your mine at the track is a different story.

The only thing that i have driven that gets out of the hole like theses was my F350 CC extend bed 600+ HP and 900FPTQ. That was a 1.65 60ft 8500lb work truck. You can not mess with a High HP 4x4 from light to light. If you think you can put money on it.

fact of the matter is the car went down---i've beaten alot of cars i shouldnt have with various cars i've owned just on sheer driving--most people have what it takes under the hood and but not in the pants--soo bare facts are some days you win some days you lose--i dont get whats with all the defense of a camaro---its a camaro---not a lambo gallardo or something--its a car that anyone with a gcsrt 8 could own but evidently chose not to---ohh and by the way--i have a yellow 07 Z06 vette with an intake kooks headers B&B exhaust and a dyno tune---anyone wanna race with street tires?--lol--i have had guys in gt mustangs talk smack when i have that out--i just dont get the conflict---welll i cruise around nightly looking for a good race---soo ill look forward to starting more controversal threads--good stuff--next we're gonna have guys giving us a million reasons why they're honda civics could beat us in theory--fact or the matter is you can make the numbers sound however you wanna---forget the numbers and get out there and do it---thanks to all the gcsrt8 guys for the defense---and pleease never mix in us Z06 guys with camaro and corvette guys--totally diffrent breed of beast

I have driven a 06 GC SRT8 and I agree they leave hard but Stock for stock with a good driver it'd be close. Also I'm talking about a Camaro SS not a TBSS they are slow stock.

with a good driver it'd be close.

Thats the problem. But even with a good driver they will have to over come getting blown out of the gate. Catch up is never easy!!! My concern is the WRX's and EVO's with there AWD they should be able to get out of the hole but they have to contend with turbo lag. No i would probably **** my pants if a Typhoon or Cyclone pulled up along side of me. Its amazing that the Jeep is the first SUV to come close to what they offered in this type of platform in 15yrs. Those GMC's were well ahead of their time!!!

i have a yellow 07 Z06 vette with an intake kooks headers B&B exhaust and a dyno tune---anyone wanna race with street tires?--lol--

I'd be more than happy to run you if you were close to me.

Now i would probably **** my pants if a Typhoon or Cyclone pulled up along side of me.

Wouldn't a Typhoon or Cyclone have turbo lag as well? :confused:

Sure some SS drivers will get outrun but if you truely believe that anyone that knows how to launch a SS car worth a damn is gonna get outrun then you must be high. I'll have to say that I thought some F-body owners were bad but you SRT8 guys are worse. As I have stated MANY times that was a good kill but its not the norm and you know it. Yall can go on thinking that your Jeeps are the cream of the crop but the fact remains you'll get smoked plenty of times light to light. An auto SS is not any harder to launch then an SRT8.

Peace.
An LS1 f-body as easy to launch on the street as an SRT8 GC? Hahahaha! Put down the pipe. Have you ever even driven a camero? Even with DRs no LS1 f body is going to be anywhere as easy to launch as an SRT8 GC.

I'd be more than happy to run you if you were close to me.
Where are you located?

Dude a stock auto F-bod is easy to launch since it hits the tires soft and isnt making GOBS of power. Have I ever driven a Camaro - LOL - yea I've driven one once or twice. I'm in North Carolina.

Nope, Since all of them are autos they can brake TQ it and spool up the turbo to have almost full power on take off. Just like I used to with my F350 4x4. I was taking off with 20psi of boost and pulling the front drivers wheel two inches off the ground.

i'm in central jersey

Where did I jump down your thoat? Nowhere. Why do people always think that because there is a disagreement, someone must be acting like an ass?

Don't look at me for bragging about how fast a modded one is.

I mixed you up with the guys causing "trouble" because this is the only thread you have posted in. You have shown no interest in other threads. This lead me to believe that you were here to just here to defend the SS. However, I believe I posted that I was guessing.
I apologize if this was simply a mixup.. I really do need to lighten up most times. I just don't like being viewed as the typical LS1 flag toating asshat who has no common sense and thinks the LS1 is king of the hill. I just wanted to clear the air and make sure you guys knew where I was coming from.

I'm with this guy... I brag/am happy when I cut a 2.1 60ft at the track...on the street I would get my ass handed to me from a dig by an SRT8 Cherokee... nothing really to argue here. Hell if you look back at the article I posted even Evan Smith has to slide off the line with a measly 2.1 60ft slipping the clutch most of the way... . it's no where near easy.

dang dude you need to work on your suspension and tire setup. I cut 1.7s on Nittos DRs at the track with a 6-spd when my car only made 420RWHP.

Bone stock... last I knew we were not talking about modded vehicles. :)
