yup..143 in my g92 LB9..i coverd 12 miles in 5 1/2 minutes

and im guessin 150 or so drafting a L98 vette

it was cool as hell...i "felt" the car start pulling harder once i pulled in behind him


the speed limiter was determined by the tire rating...but you guys knew that lol

yes really ain't that so cool when corrected the speedo toi the 4.11 i swear i go send the sending unit for shorter tires but 295's are 26.6inches tall instead of the stock 25- 26 inches depending on if there 16's or 15's. 235/55r16's = 25ish 215 65r15's = 26ish.

Angry sux

ive owned my camaro for about 6 hours now (lol).....my s10 cuts out at 97ish....i didnt even think about a limiter being on a camaro at all! the ASE chip gets rid of the limiter in my s dime, is there a chip available to do the same thing in my 88 camaro?


ps....if i say something retarded in the future its because i dont know too much about camaro's.....i know some but not much..........my bro has an 87 trans am and i end up teaching him about his own car, i know maro's and f birds r very similar but ya know how gm screws things round when they sell a car under a diff name......this is y i say i dont know camaro's that well......thanx again and please...HAVE PITTY!.......lol j/p
