Well, today after school, my friend (in his 457rwhp WS6) and I went to get some Quizno's. We bump into my dad there, and of course get into a pissing match about cars. We resolved it with a 3-way grudge match down I-45...

Long story short, we punched it at 50mph, at which point I was promptly left behind. After calling my dad for the results (because they were to far away to tell who won), I found out that his E55 edged out the Pontiac by 1/2 a car length. Not bad.



But now, more than ever, I have realized how slow my Camero is.

Pontiac Firebird with the LS1 (Corvette engine) and the two extra nostrils on the hood. They're basically a reskinned Camaro SS. They say the WS6 is RamAir because of the fancy hood, but all the LS1 F-bodies are RamAir. In fact, the hood scoop on the WS6 and SS are functional hood scoops, but not functional RamAir. There's also an LT1 WS6 of simliar body style, with the "normal" hood scoops - not the "nostrils."


This is what a quick search for "ws6" on Google turned up:
