Just a thought....If these racing series allowed composite disc-brakes, perhaps they would have called it a Z/28....just sayin'.....

They called it a Z/28 in the IMSA when they forced it to compete with traditional iron brakes.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that this global turn key Camaro GT4.R by Pratt & Miller and Chevrolet is the race version of our upcoming street/track Camaro Z/28. We've seen the video released by Chevy of the race car at Roebling Roads and we've seen the street version for months testing at the 'Ring and on public streets. You don't test race cars on public streets.

I bet that is the high wing we saw on the ring.

I'm curious why they used the LT1 and not the LT4?

Too much hp.
Maybe not, looks like they changed the rules. They had to detune the Z/28.r because of too much hp.

Looks like Stevenson is back in the Camaro business.

Are superchargers / forced induction allowed in any of the racing series they intend this car to compete in?
