Default LS-1 SS Camaro driver Claimed 360 RWHP Saturday.

Okay. My Saturday night went nothing like planned, it was kinda a disapointment but I wont get into that. Something that made me chuckle and made the night a little better was a LS-1 SS Camaro guy's claim of 360 RWHP. Let me go into the details.

Saturday night, a guy pulled up with a silver 2001 SS Camaro 6 spd (I think it was a 2001). He popped his hood and a few people walked over. Then the guy started spouting off, and claiming that he just had his car Dyno'ed at Crown Ford (Local Ford Dealership here in Fayetteville.) earlier that day.

Everyone was curious to here what his Horse Power was. I was also, but for a diffrent reason, for the same reason Tim C was (He works at that dealership) interested.

Dude went to telling everyone that his STOCK SS dynoe'd 360 Rear Wheel Horse Power at Crown Fords Dyno. Of course every one OOhhhheeed and AHHHed over it. He said he was going to bring the print outs next weekend to show.

He bragged and bragged some more about how much his car power his car pulled at the dyno and how he had a freak LS-2. Most people believed him. Well, next time he comes out there, things will be diffrent.

This is when things get intersting kinda. After he left (Oh, he tried to put on a show, spun all the way in first...Bounced off the Rev Limiter several times, Missed a shift.) I walked over to Tim C and ask.

"Hey Tim, when did Crown Ford get a Dyno?" A few people took notice.

"They didnt. They dont have one." Tim said.

The BS Flag had just been raised. What me and Tim C think is he must of been in Crown Ford, saw what looked like a Dyno, and made up some BS story and didnt expect anyone out there to know anything about the dealership he said he went to.

"I'd like to see his print out, Considering our Speed Cal doesnt even have a printer attached to it. You have to hand write the info down on a sheet of paper." Tim C added.

Next time he's out there, I'm going to raise the BS flag infront of everyone, thats if someone doesnt beat me to it.

I thought that was amusing, that put a smile on my face kinda that night, and I needed to smile and laugh a little.
