ZL-1 would be perfect. Save the Z/28 as the answer to the Mustang's Track Pack.

I know I've said it 1000 times, I just hope someone at GM hears this. Al Op is right, it's hard to decide on a suiting name. I think they could do a ZL-1 as a stripped down 1/4-mile burner, and then make it available with the 2SS package, which would add leather, C&C package, etc for the people who want a little more luxury. This would keep the SS nameplate as the "top dog" options wise, and keep the legendary ZL-1 nameplate as the low production, stealthy "top dog" 1/4 mile wise. Who knows, maybe if they did a Z/28 suspension package, you could have a ZL-1, Z/28, SS/RS. Of course, they shouldn't badge the ZL-1 (just like they didn't in '69) so when you pull up next to a GT500, they think you are in a standard SS with some suspension upgrades... and then you hit blow their freakin doors off.
