So I got this right; A ZL1 and a 2LT with no mods will be in the same class?

Let me ask you this...Mr. Tri-polar Autocross guru...

Where would an SS with a supercharger and supercar coilovers land. Hypothetically...this should be where the ZL1 is forced to play, as well. It won't be much fun if all ZL1s are roped off together...given those that are modified, and the low number that might actually be there...we're talking no more than 50 cars in that class...maybe?



I could be totally off-base...if I am, correct me. Just a thought.

This is #2.99. Flounder is headed up to see Rob, so he wasn't in the room.

Still we have a consensus with three out of five on a separate ZL1 class. There is so much excitement surrounding the ZL1 it should have a special class this year. Now if a rental 6beats out the ZL1 class we'll roll it back into stock for C5FEST IV in TEXAS

Well I have never done Autocross - but I will give it a try. Might as well push that Pedders Pace Car Package (in a controlled environment).

May have to bring my buffer to remove cone residue from my car

We are charging a case of beer per cone destroyed and no longer usable. My preference is Sam Adams lager

Sweet!

I figured Super Modified for the ZL1s. I'll change the OP and put it in it's own class if that's how you want to run it........Boss.

Out of fairness to the ZL1 owners, it is best they have thier own class. How would it look if a 2010 SS with CTS-V brakes, 19x10.5 Forgeline wheels, Bridgestone RE 11 305/30/19/XLs, 590 RWHP normally aspirated RWHP on a ZL1 Justice Package with Supercars beat all the ZL1s in super modified Dan Howard will bring a weapon on race tires to super modified as will others. A stock ZL1 is in the ZL1 class.

What class would a a highly modified ZL1 run in? It can't be the same class as a bone stock ZL1. It would run in Super Modified. ZL1 is a production car and should compete in a stock class, albeit a very fast stock class.
The Fastest Time of the Day (FTD) can be had by any class Camaro

Point of Order:
Dragoneye will be in Super Modified and NOT the ZL1 class, because he won't be stock at the FEST

That makes a cone pretty damn expensive, but the AC staff will have a great time

Welllll....my question was sorta hinging on where the SS stands in relation to those cars...modified?

Oh, and to answer -- I'd lose with great humility to such an awesome car.

Then I guess I better bring some duct tape to keep them usable - or do it on Sunday when you can't buy beer here!

The SS and 6 are not that far apart on the AC course. We saw that with Rob's rental last year. The extra HP, rubber and brakes in the SS are offset by the superior balance of the six. The ZL1 takes that to a different level almost doubling the 6 in HP, with a HUGE sway bar advantage along with 'race track ready rubber'.
