Newbie: My ride, modded '00 Camaro SS.

I have been a lurker for years, finally decided to join up. I see alot of names from F Chat here too.

Here is one of my cars, my toy. Bought it new, daily drove it for a few years then bought a daily driver and modded this.

I upgraded the cam/springs/pushrods, intake and clutch. Added headers and a full exhaust, 4:10 gears, and did a full suspension among many other bolt ons. I also did a full stereo set up that I used to compete with as well. I use the car for drag racing, autocross and shows. For the money IMO you can't beat a nicely set up LS1.

Here are a few pics....

I have only run it one time with the new cam so far. At full weight, being kinda easy on the launch it ran a 11.9 @ 115.9. It still has a little more in it I think.
