I realize you're not bashing the Camaro's IRS, I'm just using it as a comparison/example. The whole point of my argument is that they could have done better with the IRS in regards to drag racing, which is why I brought up the SS's IRS setup to use it in comparison on how well IRS should hold up. And you repeatedly bring up the needed upgrades with massive power, which is nothing less than a "der" statement lol.
No his statement goes in point where you say

As not being true. As a owner of this car I also corrected and said not true. With minor adds, and keeping the RWHP N of 600, the IRS held together. Again I ran 525 RWHP, and I went to the track quite often. People trying to push big power without upgrades had issues, and the same would happen to any Camaro owner trying to push that much power without upgrading. Period.

I do not understand why you seem to be missing this point. A STOCK IRS is not going to hold up under big HP's. It was that way for the Cobra, and its that way for the Camaro. Under normal or slightly elevated power the IRS was fine in a Cobra, and its fine in a Camaro
