Default Anyone seen the new COPO Drag Camaro They Plan to

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UJkb...eature=related this is link to General Motors test of the COPO Camaro drag package that they plan on making and selling just came back from getting my new Chevy serviced at dealership and they showed me what General Motors was planning on selling. My understanding from what the dealership told me was that they would come race track ready slicks headers and the engine package you want cars would not have vin numbers according to the dealership. Does anyone know about these cars?

they were 'very ,very satisfied'

But I guess the performance numbers were a secret....

been watching this for about a year now. LSX fans have been all over it since the first rumor of it.

<div class="ubbcode-block"><div class="ubbcode-header">Quote:</div><div class="ubbcode-body"> &quot;We’re told that the first hit off the trailer was a 9.90 at 138 MPH, with several subsequent passes in the 9.70s. The best run was a 9.69 at 140, with 60 foot times in the low 1.40s. You can tell from the video that they’re launching soft, just off of idle – appropriate for the first time out in a brand new car.

Tonight, the team is swapping out the 2.9l-blown 327 and replacing it with the naturally aspirated 427 LSX engine, and changing rear gears. We hope to have numbers for that combination tomorrow, and we’ve been promised a professionally produced video with in-car footage by the end of the week, along with interviews of the team members.</div></div>

The 427 in the picture isn't a LS7
