Car Show 2011

I saw somewhere a post for info on the Show in Philly Jan 29th. Was there info on a sign up for Camaro owners?

LS3 Funny, and YES that SAME Exact show, goes from Detroit one week, to PHILADELPHIA the Next, then again I've only been going to the Press Preview for 20+ years, so what do I know :-) Heck Google it: "Philly Auto Show"

btw, I have Nothing against the LS3, and was in fact Considering one in a Camaro, that is until I found out the Automatics get the L99, so I Bought the Automatic Stang instead...Better Trans, and etc., I'm a drag racer so I need the Automatic....sticks are NOT good at Drag racin...

The North America International Autoshow is THE REAL show and is in Detroit. Philly, Atlanta, Chicago are lesser venues to say the least. A stick shift car is not a handicap at the drags. To get a manual transmission car down the track quickly requires a skilled driver. That is where you seperate the men from the boys. There is alot more to it than the ol stab and steer with a auto trans. I prefer the manual myself and have set NHRA national class records. I will have to call BS on your "stock with a tune" mustang converts 12.12 ET...If you want anyone to beleive you post up a time slip and or a video showing the clocks and "show us the goods".

Re: Car Show 2011

what fun is an auto at the drag strip? any good driver can match or beat the times of a comparable auto, with a manual.
