A turbo type R can potentially out accelerate a camaro SS. Racing a quarter mile brings in too many variables when trying to take accurate measurements of a cars potential. If you do not comprehend the above, please refrain from trying to make a statement in which you ultimately just say something I already said.

k end of discussion. SS owns the type r in the quarter and the 1/8th mile. the type R will get you more 15 year old girls. you all can decide...

You have SS on your car what, 16 or more times? You have it on your brakes, everywhere under the hood, on the speedo. Guess the question why? It is clean, but I walked around Jenroes once and you were wiping it down when I got there and an hour later when I left.
How do you figure you are going to hit a low 12 in your car? You are really clueless when it comes to the track. Racing on the street is one thing, but adding a LM exhaust to an otherwise stock SS is not going to put you in the 12's much less in the low 12 sec range. I bet you will run a nice fast 13.5@106mph if you hook up off the line.
As for being faster and nicer than 95% of this board, I really doubt that too. There are some very nice cars on here and some that would hurt your feelings. Turbo imports are no joke. Between the 95% comment, thinking your car is a low 12 sec car combined with all the SSs on your car you are being cocky and have a ego that is over inflated.
Good luck at the track, maybe you can run a WRX, you will love the rear end on them.

Once my new exhaust arrives this week, there is no doubt the car will be a low to mid 12 sec car. I do plan on taking the car to the track once my exhaust and subframe connectors are on.

Reuter, with 350hp, an open rear end, 2500lb car, and 195/60/15's...
How fast do you think I will need to be goin??? Honest question.. I dont think 1st will be any good during a race.. and a little bit of 2nd will probably be a waste for me..
