Think it will be a problem? Just worried a little about the high RPM on the highway.
Depending on tire size it will be about 3500 -3800 rpm on the highway at around 50--60 This is what I remember from many years ago with my old Camaros with 4.56's.. I have only driven this one a few street miles so far

IMOHO I wouldn't want to drive it that far at that RPM

So does this mean you passed on that other car you were posting about?

Congrats dude! Reminds me of my car. I like it just the way it is-tough street/strip car. It's almost more rare now to see a Camaro like that than one with 18s. Throw some cal tracs on it and some DRs and go deep 10s all day!

I used go to Bobs all the time and been to Supercar Sunday a couple of times, but haven't in a while as I only had my race car. Guess I'll have to go more now..Jerry
