I hope that DR's or slicks were not employed. Other than that, Fantastic Job!

The LT4 will be in the 2016 Camaro! I'm willing to bet money on that!

Considering a bone-stock Stingray (incl. stock OEM tires) with the A6 has already proven to run sub-12's (11.496 the fastest) in the 1/4 under ideal conditions... I wouldn't be surprised if the A8 Z06 can dip a tad lower and maybe even into the mid-10's? That would be even more impressive, stock.

I knew the Z06 was going to be fast, this thing is going to be scary fast.

Very interesting. At first I was thinking it couldn't be that quick, but then realized that the previous ZR1 was almost there. Plus, those seem like very likely performance targets (sub 3 second 0-60, 1/4 in the tens)

I'd put money against it.

High performance variants are rarely introduced in the 1st model year (see C6 & C6 Z06, 5th Gen Camaro & ZL1, 2nd gen CTS & CTS-V, C7 & C7 Z06). GM almost always bring them out a year or two later to try and keep the buzz going.

I'd guesstimate the new LT1 may be in the 6th gen Camaro first than the new LT4 right away...

OK....how about a version of the Camaro 6 Gen some time in the near future?

Either way....the Vette and the Camaro will be giving Ford nightmares.

Unless Ford decides to build a new GT, then they don't have a car in the same segment or class as the Corvette, so GM will own that segment.

As for the Camaro..Don't count your chickens before they hatch. Ford fans did that with the S550 and got mildly burned.
