the evolution of classes is crazy what used to be considered a purestock 5 years ago is now a Bomber/road warrior and a streetstock/superstreet is now a purestock . The metric monte carlo is definitely a good choice and will outperform the camaro 90% of the time theres always that 10% a blind squirrel finds a nut. Its all in the rear suspension on the monte carlo.
