That was a lot closer than it should have been! But going up in smoke off the line will do that!! Lol

[@mv3380]

😂😂😂😂 100% guy did I full roll out to start lol

[@pankak3xd586]

​@@mv3380he definitely had his foot to the floor🤣🤣🤣

[@mikkopitkanen3844]

That Camaro is MASSIVE!

[@meowmeow575]

It just looks massive next to that sleek firebird lol. Cars were smaller back then

[@dries-pederjanse6249]

And still not safe

[@walkthnyt2000]

You’re so right. It’s amazing how big they’ve become since the third gens were built.

[@REAPER3fitty]

Massive and fucking awful to look out of. And at.

[@badarbiter15]

​@@walkthnyt2000did you just say that the new camaro isn't safe? It has a 4 star safety rating. And what's funny is that the new one doesn't weigh much more if at all than the old one even though it's bigger

[@peterweth]

This is my favorite part of the races. If they could find enough drivers it would be awesome to watch a whole night of this with one winner at the end.

[@laynieboy1]

You would love it in S.L.C. every other Friday at Rocky mountain speed way in west valley we have Amateur night and anyone can race 🏁 and we put alot of cars on the track and you have to sign a waver so if anything happens. You know.

[@peterweth]

@@laynieboy1 damn, every other Friday? I’d for sure go often.

[@bryankerbow7871]

The guy in the firebird just stroking his mullet and living his Knight Rider fantasy, trying not to spill his miller high life, while his "Class of 87" tassel swings from the rear view mirror !!! I bet he got out screaming "Raise hell and Praise Dale!" After that....

[@WALTERBROADDUS]

😂 you know, As a 1989 graduate I can sort picture of your typical Pontiac driver. Not far off the mark.

Rooting for the firebird

Nice spin out NIGHT RIDER

[@vannjunkin8041]

😂

[@shuffaristeffree3252]

I thought the firebird gonna jump or speak 😁

[@jesseperrella]

Spinning was almost winning for the Firebird.. and then he almost wiped out that Camaro😅

[@Blackskies-b1z]

The camaro was not expecting that take off from the firebird

[@crw3673]

Chevy for the win! Today was a good day.

[@Dre-ib6si]

That camera looks nice man. I like what they did with the front

As soon as i read ile i knew it was over for the firebird but hey the guy drives well

[@ramirezmanuel117]

That firebird is one of my dream cars

[@naisscoq8258]

not expensive dream car

[@wesfoulds47]

If the new Camaro had used launch control it would have been no contest

[@2great2die]

Lmfao you cant in this race budfy

[@denzelwashington2927]

Love the front end on those new Camaros. Headlights are beautiful.

[@invalidusername_5101]

Took me a while to get used to them. I always liked Chevys/gm pointy front end (corvettes,ctsv, Camaros , g8 , got) so when I seen that front end not pointy it seemed ugly but all it needs is a lip. The taillights look better on this vs the 2017 Camaro too

[@parzivalgtc9916]

​@@invalidusername_5101I prefer the 2012 model taillights, and the like 2018 headlights.

[@denzelwashington2927]

@@invalidusername_5101 I feel that brother. Thanks for sharing! I’m one of the few people in the car community who genuinely enjoy the modern designs and technologies these new cars have to offer. I’m younger (27) and don’t actually do work to my own vehicles so it makes sense. Older guys and people who actually do their own work hate newer cars, and I get it. I just don’t feel like I should be ostracized for not having the motivation/interest to how to do it myself. Maybe one day, but right now I’m cool with just letting a trusted shop make sure it’s done right.

[@mr.carguy3161]

Shows how far handling has come with GM muscle cars!

[@tedofuentes6525]

All this really shows is they've only gotten marginly faster over the last 40 years

[@ashes2ashes863]

​@@tedofuentes6525so marginally faster they hold typically 3 to 4 of the top 10 records on pretty much every race track in the world now. Pretty big deal when you consider that that's also being paired to exotic cars and $300,000 Porsches. Can't say the same for literally any other car company in the world. But yeah that's marginal I guess. Haters gonna hate.

[@wavyrokko6976]

Thats a pony car

[@moremiatas]

Please. 30+ years of tech between the 2 bow ties and it still handles like a fucking spoon.

[@mr.carguy3161]

@@moremiatas You don’t know what the 1LE package does for a Camaro. And don’t get me started on the Corvette…

[@rjj5075]

The firebird weighed 5 more lbs after the spin

[@yimamura]

Cant believe the Firebird looks that small...

[@smokes2366]

man i thought my bird was a thick boi but compared to that new camaro and even mustangs they tiny but the same weight

[@Bingbong1226]

Firebird got mad and spun it 😂

[@Justin_GFM]

These current gen Camaros have been the best handling sub-$45K American car for as long as they’ve been out from what I remember, at least besides a used Corvette lol. Chevy is great when they take their performance cars seriously

[@TooManyChoices1]

The mechanical grip on that Camaro (when not stomping the gas) is astounding. 😵‍💫

[@vmoya6631]

Dude broke his whole car trying to keep up

[@slackercatsproductionstm5755]

That firebird must have pink slipped it

[@renzobyd]

🤣🤣

[@jesterokjones4954]

That was a fantastic launch! I still say it should just be single cars racing the clock to negate any BS happening, like wrecking into each other and totaling both cars.

[@Justadudeman22]

Awesome.

[@mikemossa9640]

That turkey gave it hell. Props

[@isaacsrandomvideos667]

I love those 3rd gens. I need to buy one before prices go up too bad

Very cool

❤🎉

[@Gchang54]

the 19' SS front end looks so much better than the 20' and up

[@aldomandovani]

Don't you hate the inconsistent scale of hotwheels? What you mean are real cars?

[@agreen3092]

I think of the firebird as a pony car, like mustangs well at least back in the day but this shows you how far engineering & technology has come

[@telegoire1244]

Wow never realized how small 3rd gen f body is until you compare it with a 6th gen

[@Yourmidz]

Why do I feel like the firebird purposely tried to spin it into the Camaro

[@dirtyharry1312]

Whining so beautifuly

[@joeg.1119]

G*tdamn that was a closed call holly sh!t..!!!

[@birchply023]

had to get warmed up

[@Saybank]

What canards are on that ss

[@johnnyboyssite]

1000s of hours of GM suspension tuning + decent driver for the 1LE win

[@BabyMandingo]

Imagine if the white car had a competent driver

[@KARMA-wz2nj]

If the Camaro knew how to drive it would not of been this close but that firbird driver can drive

[@linobuitron8341]

How stupid will I sound if i said; my grandpa is slower than me 😅 to me the winner is the firebird.

[@kimionjones284]

If that had been a real firebird say the GTA form 89 it would have been OVER for the LS show off.I raced the GTAs back in the day one the Trans Am circuit and properly set up that camaro wouldn't stand a chance in that little space

[@wesfoulds47]

You mean LT

[@dcdial5462]

A feel like he spun on purpose to make it a fair race

Fastest cars in the world are all gas 🤡 F1 cars and porsche 919 evo, gas. demon 170, rwd and still faster than a rimac nevera. chiron ss 300+ and dragsters , faster than any rc car ever made :) keep riding elon lil bro

2019 Camaro

[@paulthesoundguy1]

For the day…even today. The 3rd Gen Camaro and Firebird cars were very good. Even the stock suspension. But it is true that todays race prepped Camaros do have a better suspension and engine power Then 25k…todays money 45 to 50K. Todays Camaro 1LE with ZL1 performance 75 to 80 K

[@johnsheetz6639]

10000 vs 100000

Man those new crammmmaroes are tanks

[@LP-bt4jk]

Them newer American car’s are like Japanese car’s now They are way easier to drive with all that aero and technology they bring. They practically drive itself unlike that firebird, now that take’s real skill!

[@ashes2ashes863]

If they were like Japanese cars they would be recalled constantly and have their floor mats not fit in the footwell. Not to mention theyd all have CVT transmissions that need to be replaced every 34,000 miles and require tune-ups that need to be done every 50k to 60k that cost more than the car did.

[@LP-bt4jk]

@@ashes2ashes863 You’re talking about their basic econo vehicles.

these are happen at almost every small/local racetrack in the U.S. and are usually called "spectator drags" or something similar. You bring your registered, insured street car. sign some wavers and "Git-R-Dun" lol
