My very first mod was a set of DR's, I even put it before window tint and look forward to getting kicked off the track for running too fast w/o a cage in a stock car w/ DR's which is any car quicker then 11.5 at my local track, so it looks like im gonna be roll cage shopping while I still have my factory warranty in tact and before I even put a tuner on it.
It looks cheap and easy enough to me. |
I am more interested in the 17 inch bogarts. 18's still arent small enough. And 17's still cant compare to a set of 15 inch slicks and skinnies.
Problem is...what about the stock IRS breaking? Just another reason why the 5.0 is better suited for the track. Anyone can throw on some 15 inch slicks and skinnies and run some great times. If you can even manage to find a good combo on the rear of the camaro you still risk breaking something. Hell...we still cant even get a good set of 4.10 gears...the richmonds are breaking.
but in all honesty I really dont have the money to go risking a major breakage...I saved for a year to get the down payment for this car and I really dont want to severly damage something that is not covered by warranty.
average joes like me are going to have a hard time keeping up with 5.0 times due to ease of entry/tracking etc.
doesnt really matter...1% of cars see track duty and I am not going to run into any 5.0's on the street running slicks...ill have no problem from a roll.
