Info on wrecked Z28 at the Nurburgring
Here is some info on the Z28 that crashed at the Nurburgring. There is a video somewhere with Al O. Maybe someone can attach it

Interesting read. I still wonder if this was an ABS failure or if ABS simply wasn't active on this car.

No real info in that link....
But I still stand by my ABS failure statement. Based on my track experience.

0:50 you heard it from Al O himself. Camaro is going after the the GT. Not the Mustang - the GT.
Everyone start spreading the word. lol. |

 So what fool thinks that an even $80K Camaro (which will not sell) would be in the same league as the FGT - in any way - even if it might approach its lap times? Ridiculous to even consider that as a competitor in my view. Two completely different style of cars in about every way other than they both have four tires. Come on. Get real Al - you sound like you're blowing smoke up everyone's behind now.

I'm sure that comment on the Camaro taking on the GT was tongue in cheek. There is no way the Camaro touches the GT. The Z06 probably won't take it down.
