500 ft lbs of torque
My best friend's dad had one.
We would sneak it out of the garage from time to time.

We found out that if we got it going about 15-20mph in reverse, dropped the shift lever into "drive" and floored the accelerator, it would produce lots of smoke from the front tires!

It was a ZL1 COPO car in drag trim that I recall ran a 10.3 1/4 mile (couldn't find the article, but I think I have it in an old magazine somewhere). Those cars had around 550 hp from the factory, even though GM claimed they "only" made around 425 hp. But true, they were extremely rare, I think only 50 were ordered and few wanted to pay more money for a Camaro than a Corvette.
A 550hp car with a 60s era chassis, suspension , and 4 speed ain’t running a 10.3 with slicks and a tornadic tailwind.

I’d love to have one of those cars. I’d let you fuck my sister for one. But they’re not running high 11s, let alone deep in the 10s.
