111mph trap is pretty fast.
ls1 trapped 12.9@112.
they actually went backwards.

True but 111mph is still fast anyway you look at it.
But going slower than a previous generation and asking more money for it is not they way to do it.
But don't forget, this one has IRS, which is more expensive to built. Also the interior is much nicer, and it comes pretty well equip. Standard bluetooth, Boston acoustic sound system, 6 airbags, leather seating, Brembo brakes.
And I bet if you put on a nice set of tires this thing will out run the old one.

okay, i'll give that to you, if you put tires on a new one, it will keep up with a 96 LT1 camaro.
fairlady blow this new camaro up all you want, i doubt it will be as good of a car as an ls1 z28 or SS.
no i guarentee it wont.

I have had 7 LSX cars. Four LS1 F bodies an LS1 Corvette an LS6 Z06 and a LS3 vette. I have modded all my cars and dyno'd every single car and raced every car. That is certainly NOT a normal trap speed for a stock LS1 F body. That is 2001 C5 385hp Z06 territory. The 98-2002 LS1 F bodies generally made around 290-310rwhp and trapped anywhere from 104-108mph usually.
That time you described is either a factory freak or a car with some mods that the owner claimed was "stock" None the less trust me it is not the norm for those cars and to say the cars performance went backwards is simply not true. This new SS is certainly not a lot faster than the 4th gen cars but is it def not slower either.
