@Bluebeast :

you have any videos of you racing one of the Gen5 Z28s?. If you've raced them before, what's your impression of them?
I did race one. Sorry no video of that race. It ran a mid 12 second run stock. I assume it could have done better with a seasoned drag racer behind the wheel. My opinion on the 5th gen Z28 is........It's a spectacular Road course car.

We used to constantly have some kind of Ford vehicle...until the Focus with the computerized clutch in the auto transmission. From day one; hesitation, stalling out intermittently. It hesitated shifting when we were test driving it but the dealer assured us it was because the car was new and that the computer had to "learn" each of our driving styles. That turned us away from Ford for the time being. but at some point, the time will be right for another one. Especially if I ever get a truck again. that F150 Raptor is a pure beast.

Triumph.....definitely. Would you ever consider a Victory?
When it comes to bikes, I don't care for what the American bike market offers. Same goes for the Jap bikes. I'm not saying that they are bad or poor quality, I just don't care for the looks or style. I wish Harley would go back to their roots and build a awesome race type bike. I'm so sick of seeing Harley's brand from the easy rider era. Every Harley to me looks like it's from the late 60-70s. Why anyone would want a raked out bike with ape hangers and a bitch bar is beyond me. I'm so glad the chopper bikes are dying off. Thank God OCC is off tv. If I bought a new Harley it would be a street glide or Fatboy. If I bought a Victory it would be a Octane or Magnum X1. If I bought a Indian it would be a Scout / Scout 60 or a Chief Dark Horse.
Again those are not my choice of bikes but if I was in the market for a Cruiser type those would be my choices.

If money was of no concern

I'd buy a Arch KRGT-1

Or a Brough superior

But honestly the Brough superior is more like a Rolls Royce. It's extremely high quality and more like art work. But it is kinda to busy looking.

I also like the Moto Guzzi V7

But to be honest I love my 2016 Norton Commando 961 SF
My next new bike will either be a Norton Domiracer or I'll build my own from a 1960s Norton commando or Triumph Bonnieville. I love the 60's bikes.

Here's my new Norton Commando 961 SF

Sorry I high jacked your thread.
Not my thread. LOL I got tired of these Camaro threads about 6 months ago. I've seen them run out in the wild vs the never ending bench racing. Sorry but I'm not scared of them.:shrug:

Haha I'm sure you would have smoked the ZL1 too. I hear they run on average low 12's stock.. Not impressive for 4000 lb+ 550+ HP.

Your Stang is badass, beating a boatload of cars including the new Camaros. Hope you don't trade it in for a 18 model (But I'm sure you won't!).

Yep low 12s all day long out of the outgoing ZL1. I'm betting the new ZL1 will bring the rain!!!,
