Just for kicks and giggles, according to GM the ATS coupe (which I am confident will come in smaller than the Camaro for many reasons) has the following specs in Performance trim:

Dimensions2.0L Turbo Performance 3.6L Performance Curb Weight (RWD)3411 lbs 3530 lbs Curb Weight (AWD)3571 lbs 3693 lbs
Overall Height (RWD)54.80 in 54.80 in Overall Height (AWD)55.30 in 55.30 in
Cargo Volume10.4 ft3 10.4 ft3
Front Track Width60.30 in 60.30 in
Overall Length183.60 in 183.60 in
Overall Width72.50 in 72.50 in
Rear Track Width61.70 in 61.70 in
Wheelbase109.30 in 109.30 in

Best case, I see the Camaro approaching the AWD weights given here. I bet even more. In V8 form even more...

Cease fire!!! We defend our ground here, we do not invade. I appreciate the support and I don't mind the claws... but it needs to have some substance to it.

Let's give these guys a few days to brainstorm and troubleshoot without blows to the face. I didn't expect this much negative news surround both 5 and 6th Gen.

We have intelligent people in place and they have been doing a balancing act for years (ban/no ban). The job loss at Oshawa was the straw that broke thePill's back. Let's give them some quality time to talk about this stuff.

It is funny but the Oshawa thing kinda sucks....

Possible May 2nd Info Release!!!

Not sure if this is the delayed 17 April news or what... Source pretty accurate, had the #137 2015's by 10 cars.

Thanks bud! I hope your right! Sorry I didn't get back to you right away.

A little bird whispered to me that the GT350R competition car may not use the 5.2FPC but instead the 5.0 Roadrunner from the Boss 302R and S models. Also not expected to turn a wheel in anger until next season.

In my opinion, the FPC doesn't belong in CTSC or GTS.

that is going to be hard unless they are planning on reopening the roadrunner production lines. the latest word from FoMoCo is once the current supply of Roadrunner engines and Boss heads are done, that's it

:lol:

I can't order one, they aren't showing up in the database.

I agree with Erik too, the LS7 has pretty much disrupted the class balance in CTSC and GTS.

For all the Chaz and Chris fans! (Team C&C)

The GT500 Photoshop thread is being ramped up. As always, Team C&C will gradually start working on this new monster. Just as their previous efforts, please add any images or ideas to the thread. Since nothing is really known about the car, you can get pretty creative with your ideas.

Keep in mind, they are doing this voluntarily. Please try to keep request within their physical means. Most importantly, be courteous...
