As for the z06.. Yes, it slow for a supercar on high speeds.Even with the stage 0 it makes a lof of downforce, which kills the speed.

Even a 4 -door cts v is faster than that failure....
John, I saw your same posts over on mushtang6g - alot of butt hurting going on over there, lol.

Are you racing it at the salt flats or a track with high speed corners where you need grip? The Z06 is the 4th fastest production car RP ever lapped laguna seca in. Sure the Viper ACR beat it by 5 seconds but still not what I would call slow as ***k. That's really reaching.

You turn it over to John and you won't be touching your own car for many months.

John Hennessey is probably touching himself already daydreaming about all the parts he can scalp once the first sucker with a ZL1 hands him the keys.

Dude. This Camaro definitely has my attention.

Almost sure the pricing will be more than I want to spend though.

Keyboard dreamer complaining about a car that he'd be lucky to be passed by on the way to work lol. I never understood these people. Just worry about what you own or are looking to buy and leave everyone else alone to enjoy what they want.

He actually posted on the SS general forum the other day that he requested to be a forum supplier or something. 10 bucks says he's already planning a custom carbon fiber hood LOL.

If the spy shots from December are to be believed, yes. Not sure if it's going to come out as an early 17 or not though, maybe a summer of 17?

While it seems most assume a clone of C7 Z06 LT4 in new ZL1 with additional cooling capabilities, reading between the lines of GM's press release, unique to Camaro are its "intake and exhaust." Wondering if that "intake" could go as deep as a different supercharger than current LT4?

That would be awesome, but it could be as simple as the air bridge between the filter and throttle body.
