You guys complained about “no Camaro content” well brace yourself my friends. 😎
Well now I see why not Camaros 🫢 All the name/trim, horsepower, noise the owner takes control of the car and the beating continues regardless how much he tried. Soo sad and embarrassing 🥺 LOL
Don't know what's sad or embarrassing, when the LT1 is damn near $20,000 cheaper. Both LT1 drivers here did not do the car justice.
Still glad to see the Camaro participating! You guys should try to get an SS or 1LE on here since it'll hook a bit better. 😎
Dude you can't drive. That Camaro would smoke that Supra with a good driver.
@@djdrauss629 Lol, it really wouldn't. Multiple tests have shown the Supra to run a tenth or two faster in the quarter mile. Driving could have been better here, and a little closer on the roll for sure though.
Race starts at 3:00.
In the United States: The starting MSRP of a Supra 3.0 GR is $51,640 The starting MSRP of a Chevrolet Camaro LT1 V8 is $35,800
Msrp but both these cars prob have a 10k markup rn lol
@@inosurrender8327 I agree markups are stupid but it doesn't change the fact that there's a massive price difference between them....
@@deejayimm I’m confused how buddy responded to you without noticing he proved your point.
@@inosurrender8327 A lot of dealers are in fact marking them up, I had to look around, but if you're in the market for a Supra I got mine at Family Toyota In Burleson, TX at MSRP. I don't work there or get anything by saying this, just passing along some info for anyone wanting a Supra at MSRP. I did have to wait about 3 months though. On the other had I was supposed to get a 2023 Vette also at MSRP from a dealer in Michigan. I put my deposit in February, when I checked last month I was still number 103 on the list for one at that dealership and I started at 120. So if I'm lucky I might get a 2024...no worries though, the Supra is an awesome daily driver.
Still the Supra wins lol or get the IS 500 ( V8 ) Lexus that will still beat the Camaro
I’m an LT1 owner, but those b58 engines are killer!! I raced one but I only had the edge on the dig because I upgraded my wheels to 305 in the back and 285 in the front, but the b58 catches up pretty quick, I noticed on a roll race is where the camaro really only wins…. But not by much at all. The stock 245s tgat come with the LT1 don’t do any justice lol
I'm getting the same 0-60 times (4.0s) on 275 F1 Summer tires as I did on the 245 All Season, thought maybe I'd see 3.9 or less
You people need to stop pussy-footing with street tires if you want all the traction on your LT1. You need R compound tires in the rear: nitto 555R drag radials or mickey Thompson et streets.
It is not only about the size, the compound and tire type play a role too, those 245 on the LT1 are all season tires not performance tires. A dedicated 275 will have better traction than a cheap all season 305 in just about any condition except wet, i use Nitto 555 in 285 on my SS and sometimes it fishtails not only on acceleration but when i let go of the gas too. I have a spare set of wheels that i will be mounting drag 275s on
@@johnlangley7521 i worked for a distributor of tires for almost a decade, you would be surprised at the physical difference in width from manufacturer to manufacturer as well as models within the same brand. Me and some the other car guys would sometimes take the time to pull same tire sizes across the board and board and sometimes the difference in contact area(footprint or contact patch) would vary by almost an inch, this means that a smaller running 305 would have no better contact area than a 275/295 of a wider running tire of the same size
@@johncrankshaft2886 I believe this because I’ve experienced it before. I once purchased tires for my previous 05 accord, and the 205s from falken were wider than the others brands at the tire shop, I went with those since I felt like I was getting more tire for the money and being the same size at least with the numbers. It looked like a 215 tire, but it said 205, while others looked more like 195s, it’s weird.
That supra is a beast! Thank you Sam and everyone that came together to make this amazing video.... both cars are still very impressive.
Yup, I agree or get the IS 500 ( V8 ) Lexus that will still beat the Camaro, easily.

BMW has underrated the horsepower for decades! I've owned two of them and I will tell you that they seemed a lot faster than rated horsepower!
So why does the Supra beat the BMW Z?
@@Thaloveexperience because it’s the same engine with the same power but the bmw is a little heavier
It’s bmw motor with Toyota tunning
@Jack aaah yeah. My question is why is it faster than the BMW coupe with the same engine. 🤦🏿♂️ Stop trying to be smart and actually be smart and answer the question.
@Jack uuuuh there's only a 100lbs difference. I'm starting to think you're not that smart. 🤔
The B58 is a beast of an engine, the transmission is coupled perfect and it’s ability to hunt the right gear at power-band is linear with minimum lag across every gear. Launched right I’ve seen them outperform awd’s. The Camaro is a stout daily, factory mapping is too safe for reliability and mpg. Just removing torque management does quite a lot. Great run Sam!
The Supra benefits from being lighter and traction. Lt1 is a superior engine
@@mogulme6190 agree even though Supra is 200ish lbs. lighter with 73hp/86 ft lbs. less. I think that is what shocked Sam. The Hp/weight ratio favored the LT1. BMW definitely underrated the Supra. On paper it’s not what happened on pavement. The underdog won every run.
B58s with very minimal bolt ons are pretty quick 🕺🏾
@@wavy6551 So are the LS/LT engines. LoL! Look at all the world records for the LS engines and tell me where the B58, or any German/Euro engines for that matter, compare!!! 😏
In this video, both cars make similar hp (yes, the Sup makes about 440 bhp) but the Sup is 200-300 lbs lighter. The result is expected. But talking strictly about the potency of the engines, the LS is much more potent and has all the records to prove. Look up the LS running 7s, 6s and 5s. The B58 is an unknown newb and hasn't accomplished anything in the drag racing world.
My friends 2021 supra made 385 whp and 417 lb ft TO THE WHEELS stock… just like most bmw turbo motors, it’s underrated and advertised crank hp is actually what it makes to the wheels. That equates to about 430 crank hp and 480 lb ft A stock 6th Gen ss same day and same dyno made 408 whp and 395 lb ft
supras are definitely conservatively rated.. didnt know the camaro made so little by comparison and its a shitload heavier... no wonder it couldnt catch the supra
Oh? And how did you equate that?
@@Welcometofacsistube on a dynojet with sae cf
Definitely agree with you 👌

This video was so freaking fun. The host going bananas and the Supra driver looking like he's thinking about what he'd like to have for dinner :) Then the host suddenly transforming into his buddy for no apparent reason. All this coupled with 1/4 mile races that last longer than the original race in Fast and the Furious. This is not a knock. I loved it. :)
Wow! that was Not what I expected, especially from the roll races...hella fast supra!
Fake
The lt1 trim has the 245 in the rear instead of the 275 like the ss trim that would explain the traction issues
Stop blaming the tyres you butthurt slowmaro fan boy they are over rated and slow way faster cars around than those old gas guzzling dinosaur cars
That’s facts and plus on the roll Maro starts pullin but then the race ends, which goes back to ur point from the low end it’s having issues cuz of the baby 245s.
@@JT-gh9hi maro didnt pull on the roll
@@cw2840 as in reelin at the top end but by then race is over, that’s when I was saying the maro has low end weakness cuz the small tires and the lack of catching traction from the beginning

Great races. Fellow Camaro owner, start all rolling races in manual mode (in 2nd or 3rd gear) depending on speed, then hit gear level over to drive to let it shift on its own. It will make the rolling races a lot closer since the a10 tends to take a moment to downshift from a rolling start
Wait he did the rolling start runs in full auto ?
@@nighthawk0077 Yes the rolling races were done in full auto. The A10 shifts quicker than a PDK but doesn't select gears nearly as well as the ZF transmission left to its own devices. Sam is a beast, so I know going forward he will start the races in manual, then switch to drive. All automatic besides DCT cars perform the best rolling acceleration times using this method.
@@anthonysaquatics4359 I don't know how so many months in Sam is still making these kinds of basic errors. Lots of room for improvement in producing and editing these races as well. I guess let's wait and see.
Lets not forget the LT1 comes with shitty all season thinner tires than the SS, the LT1 uses a square setup the same size as the SS fronts so traction will be limited. Speed/acceleration is not as simple as HP, gearing and traction play a big role as the old saying goes; spinning aint winning!
Intersting stuff. On launches, hook up for the LT1 was clearly an issue. Also, I came across one guy that swore the LT1 was faster in the Touring mode.
I've driven an identical supra and a 10 speed 2ss Camaro, and I'm not shocked at this result. The supra power is a big fat lie. Lol
Bmw for ya
@@davidwade7681 similar to Yamaha and their overrating instead of underrating of the horsepower on a Lexus ISF.
I have a 10 speed Camaro . On the roll on races you have to put in on manual mode and downshift to the lowest gear then floor it and slap the stick back over. That lag was bad lol. I still want a Supra though it’s gorgeous 👌🏼
@Catholic Firefighter if you’re only into the speed part of it then no. The LT1 is as basic as it gets and that’s a top of the line Supra with all the bells and whistles.
@Catholic Firefighter I have a 2021 Supra 3.OL but yeah it is expensive- that 20 Grand would buy a lot of forced induction for the Camaro- I have no hate for any of em I have owned Mustangs, Camaros and Vettes, and 2 gens of Supra. All fun in their own way.
Both Grey cars with an overcast sky, provided great visuals. Both sounded great. Fun video.
Supra killed it!
As a supra owner yeah they’re no joke the power is 100% underrated you really need 500 Hp+ to take the car down
Till the 5.0 Coyote pulls up with the 10R80 then the supra is in trouble provided the air both stock
@@rodneyloepker6344 Carwow did that race and alas the mustang fell to the Supra too.
Supra went door to door with a 10speed mach1 I already knew this was gonna be close. But Lt1 wins performance per dollar 💵 Next do Supra vs Nissan Z
But the Supra wins performance per horsepower as well as performance per hp to weight ratio. As well as exterior and interior and durability hence price.
someone already did it on youtube and the Nissan Z got smoked bad.
European/Japanese car quality against American car quality... Not even close.
IMO Camaro sounds better. Closer then I thought! Comes down to the launch. Roll race pretty equal IMO. Both awesome cars but priced in a FAR different class. A ZL1 vs 3.0 Supra. Let's see that race!
My thoughts exactly
We all know the BMW Supra cannot mess with the ZL1 trim level Camaro
Give the supra some bolts on and u will lol other than that you're not comparing much lol
I know a Supra with a tune can rip pretty hard too. I like both cars and would own both if I could! Lol
I love my 2010 SS with stage III cam, longtubes, cat deletes, into Borla Atak. It sounds absolutely insane. Just chops like a big ol nasty v8 should.
Now more than ever the Camaro LT1 stands to be the best bargain of a true sports car on sale today. 40k v8 and a fantastic chassis tune, even with the other engines.
More like 50k + with the price mark ups and low availability of cars. Used 16’-18’ 6th Gen Camaros are going for more than what they went for BRAND NEW when originally first sold. I’ve seen used 6th gens with 50k miles going for upwards of 40k+ which is just laughable.
I really hopped you didn’t actually mean at 40k their going to 60+ all day long
@@Sneaky5.sl0w. This is an lt1 not an ss so it is the base model with the 6.2….so yes it is considerably much cheaper.
@@henryRodriguez4073 Nope not 60k. 60k range what are you buying a zl1 lol? This isn’t even an ss it’s the lt1 which is the lowest trim you can get with the v8
@@d_2jz I heard base price is supposed to be $34,000 for the base LT1
Hi Sam. Thanks for the great videos each week. I noticed you are starting to cut the videos and go back and forth during a race. Much better when you don’t.
There is a launch control mode hidden behind the traction control when you hit it twice when in sport mode. It would have helped the Camaro from the dig.
Amazing race with two amazing cars!
Is the Supra redlining in D? Or manual shifting? Still trying to figure out the optimal shift point on mine lol
I own a 2022 Supra and a 2017 Grand Sport Corvette. They are pretty equal in weight and my Vette has 335’s on back. Im pretty sure it would be a good race between those two as my dragy has them at near identical 0-60 times and thats with more wheel spin from the vette. Supra’s are no joke, however i prefer the vette!
Hell yeah brother, good stuff
I’m a c6z type of guy but yes I love vettes too!
@@Danny7930 yeah the c6z is so beast. Prob the best bang for buck car out there.
01:42 "It's light but the weight distribution is not as great on that car" What... the GR Supra has a near 50/50 weight distribution. I don't understand how it could get any better? And at the end, you said you expected the Camaro to "Win by a lot" but it didn't win by a lot, it lost. And then you said it's closer than you expected to be.
Beats me how this wannabe car journalist can have so many subscribers. His lack of competent is embarrassing.
S2000 owner here, 50:50 is good and all, but 60:40 is better if you talking pure track cars (MR etc). More weight on the driving wheels (or the wheels that do the most work).
@@N4CR5 Yes that makes sense, probably why Chevy finally created the C8. I was mostly just pointing out to the inconsistent and contradictory statements.
Power / weight, weight distribution ratio= Toyota GR Supra is the BEAST!!. 💪🏻😎
BMW has done such a great job
LT1 rear tires are too skinny for the power. SS has wider tires and would’ve helped a bit, but it turned out just as expected though great races! I own a Camaro SS and love to see a Camaro on the channel!

Thank you 🙏
Keep in mind the LT1 is the base V8 that comes in some ~$15k under the 3.0 Supra. An SS 1LE would be a slightly better comparison. No extra power but better tires, and better suspension. Though you didn't do a track comparison the SS 1LE should handily beat the Supra on track, where the LT1 would probably be about even.
Lt1 weight less 300 pounds. I can't see the ss beating a supra nowhere; Track ,highway or twisty. Maybe with upgraded package
@@15thelongway The SS beats the Supra on track. It takes 5 seconds to look up this up
@@15thelongway The LT1 trim with a 6-speed weighs 3,619 lbs. A 1SS with a 6-speed weighs 3,685 lbs. So, no, the LT1 is not 300 lbs lighter. The 1LE package does not add another 234 lbs of weight.
@@15thelongway the regular ss beats it around a track. No point of even comparing it to a 1le.

What do you mean by "the weight distribution is not that great" on the Supra? It's literally almost a perfect 50/50 lol
Thanks for noticing that too, I'm like WTF.
Probably meant the camaro. Which i believe is 52 front.
@@dnegel9546 He doesn't make a lot of sense in general. He also said he EXPECTED the Camaro to win, and then says but it lost and he expected it to lose but be closer. That's why I don't trust this channel.

Awesome video, Sam! The Camaro LT1 comes with all-season Goodyear runflats, whereas the Supra comes with Michelin PSS. I wonder what the results would have been with matched tires!
Runflats are garbage and I agree the Camaro needs better tires to compete
Chevy and their cheap skate throwing Goodyear tires on a car pushing out 400+ hp, shake my head
It may have been more even in the digs. But there is no traction advantage on the rolls.
They should have either used an SS model or the 1LE model. The LT1 model is the base V8 model and comes with crap tires that are also smaller than the SS tires, rears at least
@@everythingcrypto5577 the LT1 is the BASE V8 model. This is for people that want V8 but don't plan on aggressive driving or track duty. This is not the model that should have been run against a Supra with really good tires. The SS model not only comes with better tires but wider rear tires than the LT1.
That BMW/Supra is amazing.
Camaro has 455 frogs 🐸🐸🐸 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Honestly wish Sam would have just let the Camaro owner drive for the dig. He (owner) used Launch Control in the last video with this same car. Sam in this race did not enable launch control, which I feel would have given him a much more controlled, and better launch.
Would still lose, he lost the roll too.. soooooo ah yeah
He's talking about launch control in general. The LT1 camaro doesn't have computerized launch control. They should have run either a camaro SS(which has launch control), or a Camaro ZL1, which represents the best camaro has to offer(which would destroy the supra).
@@MrKevinwoulfe Wrong. I have an LT1, and it has launch control which is activated by entering competition mode (pressing traction control twice in sport mode), pressing brake, and flooring the throttle, with revs being held at 2K. As I mentioned earlier, the same car utilized LC in the last video against the Is500. It's obvious when it's active, because you hear full throttle at the launch.
@@shabanajannik2600 Barely lost on that last roll, and a dig is a different story. Scatpacks get destroyed on rolls, but from a dig they run about the same time as an SS/LT1.
@@MrKevinwoulfe you mad the Camaro lost huh lol 😂 talk about the current race with the current cars … you can tell when someone is mad about the results they go to talking about hypotheticals and cars that aren’t racing 😂

People keep forgetting that the Supra's are equipped with an 11 year old tire. That tire came out back in 2011....
If the Supra did that to the V8 Camaro how far back would the Lexus IS500 be?
Yeah to the Naturally aspirated Camaro. Lol Had they used a ZL1 supercharged Camaro that Supra wouldn’t even be close.

This outcome is about right. The Supra really makes about 380 RWHP, so 420+ at the crank. Given the weight difference, it should be a very close race, and it was.
339-349whp actually
@@NellyEIEI The 2020 Supra with the prior version of the B58 made 340 WHP. This revision makes roughly 380 WHP.
they used an LT1 which has 245 all season tires stock..... the supra GR comes with performance tires stock... they should have used an SS the insane loss of traction on a 245 radial that should be 280+ is a HUGE problem.
Great job by Supra. BMW makes incredible engines
there is something magic about a straight 6 turbo and they always chop NA v8's eg the 2J, RB, BARRA and of course the B58
I would love to see the manual versions of these in a race
That B58 putting down close to 390-400 to the wheels if I guees. The Camaro probbly puts down the same 390-400. Camaro can't win here. The weight will make it lose.
Those BMW Supra’s are so underrated.
This was a decent race. LT1 I know has horrible tires out the factory Vs the Supra & the Supra didn’t need use launch control but there is a channel called Race Car Friends that did one with his 1LE vs Supra and they was close it just depends on who get the hit and he had a manual 1LE. i think if he had an A10 it would be close

Somethings off, I raced my boy’s m340i in my SS 1le and had the opposite results. Either way thanks for the vid, Sam!
Check the Supra vs m340i race out, the Supra took the bmw to GAPPLEBEES. They might have the same engine and rated HP but supra is way lighter so that should be self explanatory
..and then you woke up
From a dig, M340i should be better as it has AWD
Toyota tuned the engine
Same here, I’ve raced multiple supras in my old 1LE and it was never anything like this I was always 2-3 cars out ahead from dig and roll. But then again the 1LE tires are alot bigger and once warm the compound grips nicely
I didn’t like the looks at first but it’s definitely grown on me. The GR Supra is a good looking car
Great race guys!!
I think the Supra short shifted on race 2 and still won😳
Was not expecting that. That supra is a beast. On paper the camaro should have won on a dig and roll. Slightly heavier but quite a bit more hp and torque should've got the job done. Very impressive toyota.
Tires on the Camaro are garbage, Supra's are top notch, that makes a big difference. Buddy needs do to an upgrade
You also have to note the B58 382 hp is more than likely wheel hp. And not hp from the crank. When people dyno those Supra's, they are dynoing above 400 hp and above 400 lb-ft of tq.
Roll shows its down to who has the better tyres and pressure. Suspension both seem to be capable of same feats.
Anyone know the color of the SS? Satin Steel Metallic?
We should definitely get a 10Spd 5.0 with the drag mode on here to run the Supra to compare. If I wasn’t 3,000+miles away I would bring mine up there 😂

PLUS... the Supra gets 22 mpg city and 30 mpg highway. Your Camaro of choice likely gets about 15 to 20 mpg. Another Supra win! ;)
@@rindordrums That's not true I beat Supra 3.0's all the time on the strip and my SS1LE is the manual. Even when I lose, I still trap higher by 3-5mph. From a dig it comes down to the driver, like just about every other car in this price range. All that being said, the Supra doesn't stand a chance on the track. See Car & Driver Lightning Lap if you don't believe me. Edit: you're also totally wrong about the price difference. If you spend the same for a Camaro as the Supra 3.0 GR, You get Magnaride shocks, eLSD and much wider track tires. It all makes a massive difference from a dig.
I Grew up closets Toyota. I'm 50. When in 1988 I drove a British racing green to door Camry with the 3 leader V6 with heavy duty swaybar's front and rear that was the best car I've ever driven. It's a normal car I'd bet one of th3 best
Those supras are making some big power!!! Freaking great races though!!!! keep em coming!!!
So you running the top of the line car of one mfg and the entry level on the other? Why not a zl1 or an SS 1le? That is like running the 2.0L supra with 255hp against an SS or how about the ZL1 with 650hp. Why all the early gear changes at 4:00? On paper these cars running almost identical times?
The fact that they are running identical times is why it's a good comparison. The SS1LE isn't really any faster in a straight line than the LT1. A ZL1? Yea, that would be like comparing the 2.0 Supra to an SS. The Zl1 makes 650 HP, and the Supra makes about 400. So that would be just as foolish. I agree though about the gear changes, doesn't look like the Camaro owner used the paddle shifters to launch from the optimal rpm on the rolls.
ZL1 wouldn't be fair race for a Stock supra it has over 200hp on it. The 1LE is actually heavier with the 1LE package than a very base LT1 model .Horsepower Doesn't change with 1LE or LT1 its the same. Power for Power and weight for weight this is the fairest race.
How is this not a fair race? The Camaro has 73 more horsepower and 87 more torque. Also a tuned Supra will still walk a ZL1.
@@itzchriz836 to stick with a ZL1 it should but around 600-630 hp on the crank and they even might beat the ZL1 as they are way lighter.
Entry level camaro comes with a 2.0 or v6, not a V8. Would be a good race 2.0 supra vs 2.0 or v6 camaro. That also is not a top of the line bmw 3.0.
please make more videos like this. The Supra is a beast, and the gentleman driving it looks so relaxed while the crappy Camaro was shaking and shuttering.
The camaro is a way cooler car. Bigger tires oh and put a blower on it
@@Surefire346 Its actually made in Canada and its a POS. Watch Scotty Kilner...a millionaire car mechanic with a master's degree AND he has more followers. Learn how Toyota ? Lexus makes the most reliable cars around. I drive Lexus ES, ISF and LFA.
@@williammartin4206 that 6.2 can take more abuse than that toyota engine
@@Surefire346 really? watch that Supra that goes to the race track and races and then drives off. Ask any mechanic about how reliable Toyotas are. My neighbor rebuilds transmissions and guess what kind of brand new truck he owns. He has a daughter....guess what kind of car he bought his daughter? Consumer Reports (non advertising magazine) ranks reliable cars. I own a Lexus. number one = Lexus.
@@williammartin4206 BMW are built to break. The camaro is a better performance car.
the Supra has been put on dynos and its definitely underrated
I'm just going to point out one thing that is specific to me.. I can not say it's the case for everyone but the cost of the Supra GR is MUCH closer to the cost of a ZL1 Camaro / 1LT Corvette than it is a LT1 Camaro.
I was thinking the same. Like a more fair race is actually against a base model zl1. But this channel is more about racing whatever its available and overall i like it. The camaro did great keeping up with a car 15k+ more expensive. Just 2 better tires away from beating it.
The similar performance is why the LT1 and Supra are being compared, not the cost. The Supra is closer to the ZL1 in price, but the ZL1 also makes 650 HP, and is half a second quicker in the quarter mile than the Supra.
Sam is like to see a manual type R civic vs a elantra N. And a camaro rs v6 vs a stock Ecoboost mustang or 2.0l accord
The 2.0 accord and the mustang ecoboost will eat the v6 brotha, plenty of races online
@@desioasis2378 they are all tuned in those races. And it's usually the Turbo Camaro vs those other cars that I've seen
@@t-lawsfitness6044 i have a 2.0 accord and ive also ran multiple v6 camaros brotha, its mot even close and thts when i was stock. The 2.0 camaro itself outruns the v6. The v6 sounds good asf with an exhaust but its just upto the par
There is this video in particular, also u can read the comments in the video nd u ll see what i mean
@@desioasis2378 1. Share the link. 2. People would still want to see it imo. The specs are pretty equal
If the roll races were started in the right gear, instead of waiting for the downshifts, I think the Camaro would have won.
Thank you I was screaming at the screen saying downshift bruh. The damn car got 10 gears for forsake that damn delay when it drop. Camaro would have won every roll race🤦🏾♂️
I'm a chevy guy and expected the camaro to win these races. Boy was I surprised. Good races and nice video.
The problem with us Americans is that we tend to only pay attention to our big v8s and not what imports are engineering in smaller engines. I was very biased at first, then started to like what BMW and Japanese manufacturers were doing. I got me a Supra last year and was absolutely blown away on how quick they are. I only have a DP/ Botti Tune and it walks Hellcats and and my own ZL1..
Man it looks like y'all wanted the camero to loose
Supra face chilling Camaro face stressing
That was such a good race Sam. Could you ask the owner of the Supra to dyno it to see how much power it actually makes. Could you also get a 5.0 V8 mustang against the Supra with 10 speed because I think the mustang is slightly faster than the Camaro.
Already had convertible 10 speed it lost
I say get the SS different tune then this one stock
the camaro's are faster than mustangs stock
@@KingZD1 Wrong! Mustang 5.0 is faster!
@@bman1668 Convertibles don’t count. They are way slower.
The 10-speed automatic is the wrong choice for the Camaro. If you look at the LT1's torque curve and then listen to where the auto shifts, you will see why.
I drive an Outback and a 2.0T Accord. That Supra is just beautiful.
This video is a perfect example of how power to weight ratio plays out.
Very evenly matched cars
Damn, not bad for the cost difference!
Makes sense, for $53,000 I would expect the Supra is slightly faster than the $37,000 Camaro. Supra is a nice car, glad in the 2023 model it'll have a manual trans again.
----------------which in that same race would get smoked by the 10 spd Camaro
I would like to see some under hood shots before the races. Makes sure these cars are stock. What's the elevation? Depending on that the Camaro could be down 20-30hp.
is canada so no elevation
I love my 2021 Supra 😁
My 1le has exact 50\50 ratio tho
Tires on LT1 are way too small. 275 and up in the rear and the race would be much closer both cars are pretty good though
The LT1 only has 245mm tires out back, hence why it's struggling with grip. expect it would pull ahead more easily with the SS tires on
The used lots at Toyota dealerships now selling Camaros 🤣🤣 pick one up at a good price.
