Im trying to figure out just what I raced a few days ago.

It was the newer generation camaro and pretty sure it had the SS badges

Also had the brembo brake upgrade

After the first and only dig, we stopped at the next light and in asking, the camaro driver said the car was cammed (definitely could here it too) and was somewhere in the high 400 rwhp range

I have the R888R's in a 315x30x20 and what few times I did a pull in first gear they always hooked. Not this time. I edge him out and when my shift light came on and I went into second I hooked and just left him in the dust.

I tend to drive my car really conservatively so I rarely do this but couldnt pass up the opportunity

With the power you're making, the result was inevitable. Nice mods!

The 1LE is GM's "track package" for the Camaro. It's offered across the platform (4cyl, V6, SS, ZL1) and does not add any additional power mods over a stock Camaro. The SS version comse with 6 piston Brembo's, Recaro's, Magnetic Ride control, an eLSD, differential, oil and trans coolers, dual mode exhaust, 285's up front, 305's in the rear on 20's, and satin black exterior accents (black hood is a giveaway). 455HP - 455lb/ft. I have a 2018 I traded my 12' RS3 in on.

You could have spun all the way through 3rd and still put bus lengths into him.
