That is a ss Camaro with a hood scoop so the engine can get more air and trust me me this is coming from an 11 year old car expert

@@DanaSquires Very interesting. I looked at what this car looks like and the original ss Camaro's rear end is not as rounded as this model. Maybe it's a different car or is the rear end also custom?

The old muscle cars will win every time in a straight line. The modern supercars will out-handle them on a twisty circuit. Horses for courses :) Personally I'm an old school guy and I'll take the old classics over the new machines.

Well, it’s nothing to brag about, my 1st car was a red 99” civic si. It had a 5speed with a mind bending 160hp😞. I got made fun of a lot, but I loved it.
