2012 Camaro ZL1
 
Just found this little blurb about the new 2012 Camaro, dubbed the ZL1. Has a supercharged 6.2l and a drag race package in the works. Here's the link

Chad, I'm afraid GM likes to throw big HP numbers around a little too well. But, about 350 would be about right for that one, don't ya think ?

Ah yes,...... the game is afoot. We may actually have a real drag race brewing here.

Unless all of you can afford a 100k plus race car, it doesnt matter if its a Ford, Chevy, Chrysler or whatever. Its like you are acting like now us "Chevy" guys will have a chance when most of us are still running the "older" combos. How is this going to help?? Yes its cool that Chevy will possibly have a car to compete with the other two but, personally, I sure dont plan on building one because of the cost. Give it a bogus rating and its just one more car to outrun the rest of us in the upper classes.

actually i think a GM offering may be just what it takes to actually get these cars out of traditional stock and ss. now the factories can club each other to death with their new factory hot rods, with no interference from the rest of us.

I'll say this one more time, If GM makes a drag race package car like the rest of them and gets some unrealistic HP. rating to go along with it then it does'nt belong in stock elm... These cars should have there own class or be put in super stock PERIOD!!!!

It's not a sportsman class, but obviously there are others who share your opinion!
