Mike Skeen: Rampage Camaro at VIR

[@stevegrim9662]

I always come back and watch these Camaro videos, never gets old. That's crazy fast on VIR

[@ChrisDavidMuzik]

nice build

[@stevegrim9662]

These are really clean and fast laps. VIR is technical ass hell. Props to you sir.

[@Wopadas]

What kind of lap times were you turning in it?

[@spacecalander]

What transmission is that, you can shift without using clutch?

[@BestUnderPressure]

+spacecalander Looks like a NASCAR transmission. I think he is downshifting all the way down to 1st gear in some corners. The new CUP transmissions only need the clutch to start up and get going. All up and downshifts are clutch-less. Of course, I'm just guessing here. I could be totally wrong.

[@MikeSkeenRacing]

+Michael Melton It's a Jerico 5spd, so pretty close. It can be shifted without the clutch, but I was only using gears 2-5.

[@spacecalander]

+Mike Skeen Awesome thanks Mike. Be nice to put into my 70 camaro haha

[@dougbankhead3842]

+Mike Skeen Great video! This is the question I came over here to ask and it looks I'm not the only one! So essentially it's a "dog box"?

[@7REDDRACO7]

+Mike Skeen neat car and video, superb driving. Is it a magnesium case? I was looking into a mag case to get from jerico only 70LBS.

[@jblovell9065]

You would think camaro would have sequential gear box

[@supersevenn]

Mike, What tires were you lapping on ?

[@MikeSkeenRacing]

I believe this was on Michelin slicks. We also ran it on Hoosir R/A7s.

[@CameronConover]

Looks like a very nicely built car. That right side net though, that's killin me. They should wrap behind the seat and they should be tight, not flappin in the breeze, it's basically useless that way. Other than that, nice car! Looks like a handful.

[@Reverie100]

You should be the American Stig on the Grand Tour

[@danielhuertas859]

sounded like it ran out of gear on the front straight 1:40.

[@lenzdot]

I timed a 1:52:33

[@hakrsakr]

Dogleg first gear, no?

[@MikeSkeenRacing]

That's correct.
