Definately a good goal to shoot for!
Are you going to keep your SS stock for a while? I *may* be getting an 11 5.0 this winter (other cars I'm considering are a C5 Z06 or an 08/09 LS3 C6). If so, would be fun to hook up at Beech Bend next spring. I'm not the best driver in the world, but have been known to pull a gear or two from time to time. Would be a good race, I bet.

EDIT: Found the data:
Kenneth Risher

Im pretty confident 12.4s are possible out of the Camaro stock. Great weather and a better 60' is all it will take for me. My 1.97 60' wasnt the greatest , on the same day i had a 1.91 on a previous pass. Ive noticed on my car every tenth in the 60 is worth roughly .15 in the quarter. Another plus is getting some miles on the car and breaking it in. When i went 58 I think i was between 1000-1500 and now 4000.
For now im keeping it stock (unless Chevy brings out the Z) and i sell it. I am looking to purchase some DRs on vette rims to see what i can squeeze out of it with some BITE. Yeah we could hook up sometime down thier it would make for some great racing!
The Terminators are BAD but Id put money on the new 5.0 beating the 03s best when they get some mine shaft air to run in this fall.
