I'll run her off a light.........
Really though, this shows a major difference between the 4.7 and the 5.9. A
SCed 5.9 should walk all over an SS. There was actually a guy (James) who
owned a 97 Vette and 99 WS6 and when he SCed his R/T he thought it woulkdn't
keep up. Boy was he wrong. He raced a 00 Camaro SS from speed (70 or so) and
pulled I beleive he said 8 lengths on it. Evenworst form stops against LS1s.

Well, this has been rumored for the last 2 years, so there was a little
warning. My girlfriend is a dedicated Camaro owner ( 77, 80 , 84 Z-28, 88
RS, 93 Z-28 ), So we broke down and traded in the 93 Z-28 for an '02 SS.
This is one seriously fast car. I could beat the 93, but can't touch this
one. I can get a jump on it off the light, but get caught at about 150-200
yds . ( it has a traction control system that applies the brake to combat
wheelspin If you turn traction control off, it does great burnouts)
Got a great deal on buying it. our dealer located it an another dealers
lot, and sold it to us sight unseen. Then we find out that it has extra's on
it that weren't listed on the locator listing. Chrome rims, high performance
exhaust, badging. Came to about $2500 that the (remote) dealer didn't get
paid for.
Had to get the Chevy area rep involved to make the remote dealer turn it
loose to our dealer.
Dakota content: its been back to chevy 4 times so far for interior trim,
paint and minor touch up stuff. I love the looks the chevy mechanics give my
DAKOTA
( gotta keep the Dodge to drive her back and forth to the Chevy service
dept.)
