Your older 4 door Brother from Las Vegas

Joined Camaro5 for two main reasons my parents have a 2012? 45th Anniversary 3SS all they have done is Pypes A/B exhaust as they get closer to the end of their B2B i have to start keeping an eye out for some go fast as my Dad will only start fiddling after the warranty is out.

2nd reason is i own the camaro's older, faster , 4dr brother. Since they seem to make fewer and fewer G8 specific parts and more and more g8/camaro interchangeable parts i have to keep an eye on this site too.

My car is currently running 11.66 @119 PB at a high DA i don't recall currently spinning through first and 2nd gear with the mods in my signature and a New Era Performance Tune via Revolution Race Works here in Las Vegas it is by far my greatest decision.

here are a couple crappy pictures, sorry. i have pictures of the 45th if anyone wants them but it is just a bone stock DD:

thanks, this is my first "fast" car. I love my G8 i wanted one the second it came out in 2008 but couldn't afford it until 2011. when i bought it from the original owner it was bone stock i thought it was so crazy fast then the mod bug bit me and still hasn't let go. Trying to find more info about meth kits but the search feature on this site is being difficult.

The search function on this site does take some getting used to. One, maybe two words maximum, and I only use advanced search. Sometimes searching by google is faster.

Welcome to our happy little corner of the net, and to Camaro5. There is a BIG fridge on the back porch with anything you can think of in it...help yourself...of course only take what you can LEGALLY have. Make yourself at home on one of the big fluffy couches, kick your shoes off, put your feet up on one of the tables, yes we are allowed to do that, mom's, dad's, wives', husband's, girlfriend's and boyfriend's here don't care....and take it easy.



oh...btw....every once in a while a food fight breaks out...so you may not want to wear nice clothes here.

Welcome!!
