Default Anyone with a 6MT C6 that is running a cam

I am deciding of what kind of cam i wanna get and i heard the bigger cam cars in low rpm/traffic do not drive too nice. Would anyone running a bigger cam want to meet up so i can see how the car feels taking off easy as in stop and go traffic?
I would love to hit 430-450 rwhp with the car after the cam(valve springs etc/headers /ported intake/p&p tb/10% pulley and make the drive drive fine in traffic, since in the summer i use it as a daily driver.

talk to glenn, Batman06(i think) hes got a pretty big cam in his car. You are correct though, once you hit a certain size cam, the low rpm and city driving starts to suffer. I am at that edge with my cam on the c5Z
