Z28 Prototype on Nurburgring.
http://www.lsxtv.com/news/z28-protot...rgring/?ref=nf
Any thoughts on what the lap times might be? Or what they might have stuffed under the hood? Since the SS has 426hp, I'm gonna say the Z28 will have closer to 500hp, since they're putting the Z28 back as the top dog. Maybe a supercharger thrown on?

The early word is that the engine is similar to the engine currently in the CTS-V(LSA).
~556 hp & supercharged.

I believe it's supposed to be powered by a supercharged 6.2 liter that also powers the new CTS-V that makes 556 horsepower and 551 lb-ft of torque.

The ring is only about 45 minutes away from me....I wish there was an "insider" that would tell me ahead of time that these things were gonna be there!

Can't wait to know how fast it laps the ring and what top speed it hits on the big straight. The zr1 hit like 170 or 180 on the big straight.

When is it supposed to debut? I'm pretty eager to see how this car compares to the GT500.

It will be the platform underneath the new (~2014) Cadillac CTS, the (~2013) sub-CTS model (currently known as the ATS), and, according to GM, the 6th-gen (~2015) Camaro. I believe the only cars that have been shown on this platform are the ATS sketches; there has been no 6th-gen Camaro design shown yet. I can't imagine that would be good for 5th-gen sales.
