1LE sub 3 minute time. Which course?
I've searched several threads, but I cannot find which course or configuration the 1LE ran at VIR. Was it the 4.1 mile Grand West Course, which is what Car & Driver uses for its annual Lightning Lap event (which is actually the least used configuration there) or was it the 3.27 Full Course? The Boss 302's time of 3:02 was on the 4.1 mile course, so I'd really like to know which course the sub 3 minute 1LE run was made on. If it was the full course, a sub 3 run is not that impressive as many cars commonly run mid-to-low 2's on the Full Course.
The way it's being talked up, I sure hope it is the Grand West and not the Full configuration. |

Here is the story from the Chevrolet media site:
DETROIT – The road-racing inspired Camaro 1LE performance package returns for 2013 with unique gearing, suspension tuning, and tires that makes the model capable of more than 1 g of lateral acceleration and a sub-three minute lap time at Virginia International Raceway’s Grand Course. http://media.gm.com/media/us/en/chev...ar/0327_camaro |

Chevy sure loves publishing times for its pre-production cars. I predict that Chevy will let the media sample a pre-production 1LE only if it is compared against a standard 5.0 and not a Boss.
