Negative. I'm thinking the car is traction limited at the moment because of the tires. The throttle controller is on the list but I figure I'll do the throttle body for the small gain and to help reduce the bottle neck on the intake.

The SS Camaro took a little getting used to when I drove it. After starting and stopping twice, I had already gotten used to it. It definitely has a clutch that is stiffer than the V6 Camaros though.

I thought the Z/28 was gonna be fighting me to get get into gear like the SS but it actually was extremely smooth.

No power steering, touch the gas pedal and it instantly went to floor, Learning to have proper control of both feet for smooth shifts were quite intense.

Thats crazy. I learned in an 80's Ford Ranger. Same exact situation for me very hard to control, especially when it was swapped with a 350 cleveland lmao.

Good thing is, that I can drive anything with ease after mastering that beast.

My girlfriend understands my obsession with cars and we get taco bell quite often. I'm OK with it haha

Agreed! My ex was actually into cars, sadly things just didn't work out elsewhere

I find myself thinking there is no way I could have a GF that doesn't care at least a little bit about cars.

Anyone else who drives their Camaro in the snow have an issue where all of a sudden you can really hear the exhaust drone in the car? I think snow gets caught between the pipe and the chassis and all of a sudden there's decent drone in the car. It doesn't last very long so I can't ever see what it is so I'm guessing snow/slush gets on the pipe.
