The live-streaming...Looks like Motortrend....is yet to be announced...TBD....

But, yeah, you're right, its a little unclear and confusing......

Try this link for the MotorTrend live streaming....https://www.motortrendondemand.com/..

Very nice. Keep the pictures coming people!

Also: is that the front facia of a Z/28R on the wall in the background? It's got the flowtie so I am assuming so.

This will be fun to watch. I have a friend in GTA and he suspect the Camaro guys are a threat to win GTS

Oh wow that's scintillating.

Of note: they've swapped the brakes to the actual racing "brembo"s with the race-specific font.

Also of note: the front canards extend all the way down to the splitter. Much bigger than the ZL1 1LE production ones.

I have to admit I'm confused on the rear wing mount. It just looks to fragile. I'm assuming there's some notable structure beneath the trunk lid down to the unibody?

Pretty random that you typed that the exact moment I asked the question.

Indeed. Kind of as a rule, race-only calipers are hard-anodized and don't necessarily have to pass the OEM's salt-spray et al tests. Built for racing, not looking pretty.

If they ran the factory ZL1 1LE calipers, they'd be "Brownbo's" in a hurry, as the OEM-specified powder coating insulates instead of dissipates heat.

From an old Motortrend article about a month ago...

http://www.motortrend.com/news/chevr...1-based-racer/

Underneath the Camaro GT4.R’s race car body lie the bones of a Camaro ZL1. Pratt & Miller Engineering, the same outfit that builds the Chevrolet C7.R, helped Chevrolet Racing work over the chassis and replaced the supercharged LT4 V-8 with a dry-sump-lubricated 6.2-liter LT1 V-8 built up to racing spec mated to a six-speed Xtrac sequential transmission with pneumatic paddle shifters and adjustable traction control.
Additionally, the new Camaro GT4.R features an Xtrac racing limited-slip differential, two-way adjustable Ohlins Racing coilovers, six-piston monoblock Brembo calipers in the front, adjustable ABS, and an aerodynamic package that includes a heavily revised rear wing, front splitter, and front diveplanes.

Does anybody know if we need motor trend on demand in order to watch live stream?
