can't wait to see these mother lovers out on the road

Joebot8484 · 10-24-2011, 09:51 AM

I don't see anything listed for the grill! Maybe that new one we've see is standard and that's it?

I completely agree. I'll be looking into springs

No biggie.

Please note

: The ground clearance of ZL1 is lower compared to the
Camaro SS and similar to a Corvette Z06. Drivers must use caution

when approaching curbs to avoid damage.

Finally some final answers... Did we have weight and balance bafore? 4120 and 51/49

Head-Up Display

Head-Up Display is a transparent display that presents ZL1 data
without requiring drivers to look away from their usual viewpoints.
The dots at the top are “shift lights” staged with increasing
engine speed to make it so that the driver doesn’t have to take
his/her eyes off the road to execute perfectly timed upshifts,
even under the most demanding conditions. The lower section
is a lateral g (cornering force) measurement that holds the peak
value in a corner so you can look at it when you heading down the
straightaway to the next corner. The gear indicator is only on in the

automatic TAP mode.

Please note:

■■

ZL1 performance parts have a break-in period. For the first 1,500
miles, do not drive above 80 mph. Following this break-in period
rule will result in better performance in the long run

■■

It is not recommended to tow or pull a trailer with ZL1

■■It is recommended you replace the ZL1 air filter at 20,000 miles

That's the first I've seen an official curb weight listed. 4,120 pounds is a little heavier than I was hoping it to be, but a 7.1 weight to horsepower ratio is not bad.

Great info so far.... Keep it coming.

4120 doesn't scare me. Just look how it performed at the 'ring.

I stretched the body to make it a 4 door, but I swapped in the 3.6L DI V6 for fuel economy. Then I picked up a corvette body around the V8. I also swapped the body for a C2 Z28. (In short I traded it for three cars, a Corvette Z06r, a C2 Camaro Z28, and a Cadillac CTS Summer Performance package 3.6L DI with Aisin 6spd.)
