???? How fast can a first gen Camaro go????
Ive enjoyed reading all the Aero threads here, But it raises this real world question, "How fast can you go in a first gen Camaro?" At what point does the car loose its manners and "float around" making it unsafe at speed.
The "Big Red" camaro was mentioned in another thread and it set a record at the Silver State Challenge of 222 mph!!!! Drag racers routinely go well north of 150 mph in first gen Camaro's but only in a straight line.
I am building a PT 69 Camaro at the moment. If you do the math with respect to HP, transmission ratios and Rear end ratio it is a 200 mph car. What happens to that number when real world Aerodynamics are added in? How fast is it safe to drive? Hummmm

Teaser pics
Hopefully some teaser pics will get the juices flowing...
My car has an Art Morrisson C6 front suspension and a Prodigy customs fabricated C4 IRS. Eventually the motor will be a 6 liter LS with a Magnuson supercharger.
