2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS With Automatic 8-Speed Rifles Down The Strip: Video

This 2016 Chevrolet Camaro SS is one of the first we’ve seen at the dragstrip, and it hustles down the 1/4 mile stretch in 12.73 seconds at 112 mph.

The publisher of the video, RoadTestTV, admittedly states that the Camaro SS is capable of making a 12.2 – 12.3 second pass with a trap speed closer to 115 mph; in which case it would have possibly beat the time of the modified Nissan 240SX in the other lane. The car just seemed to need the ever-important driver modification.

Regardless, the Camaro SS riding on the Alpha platform, powered by the LT1 V8 matted to the quick-shifting 8-speed automatic – the same one that comes in the C7 Corvette (and more) – is quite impressive. Watch the video for yourself and let us know what you think of the Camaro’s performance by commenting below.
