Well, what i think Pete is saying that all the frills of the ZL1 will be gone, which equals weight loss......including MR and the supercharger....... now you keep all the oil & diff coolers, put Supercar Coilovers on it, with an aggresive 427 in there... and it is a purpose built track machine that could quite possibly outperform the ZL1..

So the heritage of the Z28 is preserved do to the "better" track suspension, reduced weight, possibly ram air.... (look at some of the actual Racing camaros)... due to power to weight ratios..... it could happen...

am I getting the point pete
