1969 Dart GT 440 vs. 2010 Camaro SS/RS

thats from car and driver.... now if the dart beat a 13.1 camaro in a straight line like it should then it runs decent.

Test ranged from 12.87-13.1 depending on whose test you read. Considering these are 1/4 miles times from a "non-dedicated vehicle" The roll on's should have been faster or advantageus to the camaro.

what that 40 years got GM was a well rounded car that does a lot of things better.

all that while weighing what 1000 pounds more?. like i said they were built to do many thing good and that is what they do.

Agreed, but not 1,000 pounds more. Not even close.

Exactly why I stated that an aluminum head 440 dart should be expected to clean up a 2010 SS, even with exhaust and intake.

That dart should punch mid 11's ??? .

Expected by whom? The owner, general public? No.. Like I said you would of thought I beat him with a toyota prius.

The guy that raced the OP dart was not worried about his cruise or anti-lock brakes. He bought an SS and lined it up against a built 440 Dart. He thought he would win, his mistake, and I will laugh with the OP dart, he he he HA!:D

Ah ha, someone gets it.

Are you mentally challenged? the ORIGINAL post was about a chevy guy with his new Camaro, wanting a street race with a old outdated dodge, and he lost.... HOW MANY TRICKS WERE THEY SUPPOSED TO DO IN THIS STREETRACE?

apparently you have not watched the fast and furious series, lol. I'm Terretto

Why are some of you guys looking for ways to say the Camaro is better. It's probably a $30,000 vehicle.

About 37,000 with mods.

Any turd that can get his Dart, Mustang, Chevelle or whatever into the 12s will more than likely beat a newer Camaro.

REally? Hmmm, I need to come to your drag strip.... Lot's of guys running 12's, lot's running slower.

It gets really old when every post out of some is negative.

And this thread was about a mopar crushing a chevy. That sounds pretty cool to me, not negative.

My brother n law here has a new camaro that he would love to run you from a roll or dead stop. I have seen his camaro run 11:80's and he gets to drive it with a/c on and get 22mpg....

So I guess my car is pretty f'ing fast then, huh? Or your bro in laws car is super charged or has boku work done to it? I'm expecting mid 11's out of my car at the strip. Time will tell.
