I think this is the same mule originally seen on the 'Ring. It has the same lisence plate number...WHH011 Maybe they swapped plates?

The wheels are different or photo shopped.

You need to swap tires constantly on a track..
..same car, same tires, just new ones on different wheels.. easier to change the wheels than to put new tires on the same rims..

^^ good point!

I Hope those headlights aren't the production ones. i loved the singles on the concept. Also, dont u think the wheels could have been more true to the original concepts? They're ok i guess but not as deep. Also, its great that the hi-performance version will get Brembo's. And if anybody doubt's it, Holden's performance group, HSV, is fitting the same brakes to its flagship, the W427. The roll cage is obviously only for testing at he ring, as are the tyres. I think they're semi slicks. Lastly, seeing as Holden is doing all the development on this piece of automotive artwork, they had better release it here in Oz or else!
Oh, and the car is the same, just a wheel swap. Look at the rego sticker in the left hand bottom corner of the windscreen.

I'm not planning on keeping the rims anyway. I like the Foose Nitrous in dubs.

It's always good to hear about performance from other GM brands. I just don't follow Holden enough. Obviously, I need to do a better job of that.

You're right about the roll cage, although I wouldn't mind rocking a cage in my muscle car.

I didn't notice the tires—good catch!

I don't know if anyone has figured this out yet but the reason the shots of the camaro look low to the ground is simply because it's rounding a sharp corner in one of the many turns at the Nürburgring test track, i also presume it's movin about 40 mph in doing so.

See what happened to Shunt?

And whoever is at the other end of this rope (might still be Shunt, we don't know)?

They asked the Fbodfather if the headlights were the real headlights.

J/K

I couldn't resist. Welcome to the forum

Hey! Yep...we've talked about that too. The hitch was purely for testing purposes. Don't worry!!! You won't be taking delievery of your 2010 Camaro w/ a trailer hitch sticking out of the back!

Captain Awesome · 06-14-2008, 03:32 PM

Trailer hith? Why not? I mean seriously it's probably going to make a better truck than a fridgeline does...
