Similarly, the car testing at the Ring could be driver training for GM’s test drivers. Or it could be a support vehicle for the team testing the C8. I doubt it has anything to do with a new vehicle coming to production because if it were, it would be in 95-100% content (or lap times mean nothing) and in camo because that’s how GM does new product.
If they are connected, then it would be a matter of testing of the Gen VI, since you don’t have to camo the car to test an engine. But why take a new engine to the Ring? Nothing proven by doing that that couldn’t be proven at any speedway in the US.

I wasn't thinking the two were connected. My imagination was spinning with the idea that a LT2 for the SS was aborted.
Engine testing in plain sight so no camo.
samurai observed that the SS had US plates so GM car. The plates are bolted to the fascia instead of the bracket design that blocks the opening. GM bailed on the Camaro in 2018. Why was it even there?
Just my imagination running away with me...
