3 seconds faster around GM's track. It has been spotted at the Ring. Any guesses on time? Me thinks this thing is going to be very close to a Z06.

Just saw this article. I was not expecting this, interesting that they stuck with the same supercharged motor.

Here's the bogey for the next GT500.

Should be a good performer.
What I'm giggling about are all the people who were pinning their hopes on a LT7 Z/28 ...
Nope.
I agree. I think this is their "Z28" right here. Gonna be a beast on the course.

I know, right?!?
LET'S GO FORD!!! :ford: :ford:

Now we got the Demon coming in a few weeks too. Maybe Ford will announce the 500 at the same show?

I hope so bro! I'm actually thinking they will after this seeing this new ZL1 1LE today. I had no idea this was coming out.
There will be A LOT of happy people if the new GT500 makes it debut at the show in April. (Me included as I plan to order one. Depending on looks, power/torque and performance numbers, of course. :))

The ZL1 was NEVER designed to run on the 285/305's nor are the brake adequate.

These were the tires that were originally designed for the ZL1...

Nope.
We reported a while back when the z28 program passed away. It was due to very poor sales and a very poor sales rate for the last z28.

This was suppose to be the z28... but in reality, it's only good enough for the ZL1 to begin with. The 2017 ZL1 was neutered and these are the parts that were cut off...


Good to see the Camaro is so predictable.

Please, do tell... what does that have to do with Chevrolet releasing a ZL1 1LE?
Do tell? Seriously?
As a die hard ford guy ford is lacking big time.
They have nothing to counter punch with.

I would like to say yes but I can't see how they could keep it a secret this long.
