I mean what could they tell us that would be exciting? First release we learned exciting tri-y manifold, second release exciting weight loss...what could make folks excited about brakes and wheels, Brembo 4 piston all around, carbon wheels? |

Braking distance, lateral g's, wheel weight savings and size, rotor size, maybe acceleration, track, and 1/4 mile times

What I'm curious about is the 4/20 release; they already released the picture of the tri-y headers on 3/19, but from what I can tell, that was supposed to be on the 4/20 release. Are they just going to give more info?

If i am not mistaken, didn't they offer magnessium rims on a 2000 millenium edition of the corvette to save weight??

DETROIT – The engineering team spent 9 million hours of computational time honing the driving experience of the all-new 2016 Chevrolet Camaro before the first prototype turned a wheel. The structural modeling led to the Gen 6 Camaro being 28 percent stiffer than the current model.
"The modeling abilities of computer aided engineering are advancing at incredible rates," said Jim Karlavage, Camaro program engineering manager. "Today, we can accurately model opportunities to add torsional strength without adding unnecessary mass. The result is a lighter, stiffer structure that benefits every aspect of the driving experience." The more rigid body structure allowed the engineers to more precisely calibrate the steering and suspension systems because they didn't have to compensate for chassis flex. The lighter structure also enabled the size and mass of elements such as the wheels, tires and brakes to be scaled accordingly. "The structural weight savings are compounded by opportunities to reduce un-sprung weight," said Karlavage. "The result is a more nimble driving experience that rewards the driver with satisfying feelings of responsiveness and control." Chevrolet will introduce the all-new, 2016 Camaro on Saturday, May 16, during a special public event at Detroit's Belle Isle Park.

"The structure of the 2016 Chevrolet Camaro 28 percent stiffer and the overall weight is least 200 pounds lighter than its predecessor. As a result,the team was able to scale the size and mass of components such as the brakes to reduce un-sprung weight,further improving responsiveness and control."
Missing a few words in there. |
