Official SS Camaro Nürburgring Lap Time- Where?
When is GM planning to drop this bomb? I know for a lot of people it doesn't matter but it seems the ring times are becoming an important benchmark for performance vehicles these days and it would be nice to know where the new SS Camaro slots in against the competition. I know we haven't seen any SS pre-production vehicles out on the ring for a long time so maybe they are just going to skip it all together???? Anyone have any info on this? It would be awesome if the fbodfather would comment on this.

Wow, thanks guys. Not sure how i missed this, i took a sabbatical away from the 5th gen for a while and that was probably when this info was released.
8.20 is not too bad i guess, respectable company to be around in that area. I wonder if this was posted on Wikipedia, i was just looking there for the time.

That isn't an official time. So odds are, a couple seconds could be trimmed on the production version
