What else is amazing is this probably isn't the fastest 6th gen camaro around that track.

Would love to see the different coolant temps after that lap.

Drew Cattell
"Many fast laps around the Nordschleife are dramatic, with lots of oversteer and steering input,” said Drew Cattell, Camaro ride and handling engineer and driver of the hot lap" He goes on speaking about what we are all seeing “Not so with the ZL1, which is extremely planted and stable, almost calm. With Magnetic Ride and great overall chassis balance, the ZL1 is all about being inch perfect at every turn and carrying a lot of speed.” |

Can you make it out below? Should be the left-most visible "small" gauge on the screen. I imagine coolant temps would be alright. Even at WOT...that back straight was 150+ mph of air blasting through the radiator for over a minute. And this thing has a biiiiig mouth. |

I got to have lunch with Aaron back in August and I queried him hard over cooling citing some of the issues with the LT4 in the ZO6 and he emphatically assured me that it wasn't a problem with the ZL1. One of the coolers lays horizontal under the radiator and air is deflected upward through it which also helps with down force. The depth of the grill holes were even shortened from the original grill to increase airflow. Lots of wind tunnel time spent on this one. |

surprised that GM hasn't released the the G6 1LE (V8 & V6)times on the ring(if they even tested them there..)

If there is video floating around somewhere GM will never let it see the light of day now that Gen 6 is all they care about. Looks are subjective.

The CFI has a removable piece under the hood for track days to get more air flowing there too. It fills the air gap to deflect water to the side of the engine for normal driving. 3 bolts and it's out for the track. |

So I did some lurking over at M6G...
A lot of guys are praising it..that's cool. A few tools are being asses, but that's to be expected. |

Agreed. Now they are saying the times are falsified and that they are waiting on GM to put out a Press Release on why the times are faked. I swear, those morons on that forum crack me up. It's comedy central 24hrs a day over there.
