Oh man! I'd have a lot of mods to remove on my SS before trading in for a ZL1! Very tempting though after seeing these teaser vids!

Those look like the Michelins...you can see two really wide grooves in the tread pattern that the F1 G:2s don't seem to have...

I think the ZL1 is an AMAZING vehicle. I am on the list and look forward to driving my ZL1 both stock and Pedderised.

Well done Cmarao TEAM!!!!!

I don't think any company can put you out of business....unless they use your stuff - at which point you're guaranteed business!!

But you gotta admit....this is impressive beyond many expectations...In that video...Did I see that you can shut off Active Handling in two of the PTM modes (aka MR)?

Results will be PASS/PASS/PASS with flying colors, or it won't be built.

Revo1 · 09-10-2011, 01:31 PM

DREAM CAR... Makes me sad that it's going to be way out of range :/

Awill · 09-10-2011, 02:07 PM

CamaroMiami · 09-10-2011, 02:13 PM

Now that's the real deal.

A daily driver and a track ready car all rolled into one package.

Tweak that beast some more, don't hide the goodies.

this can take anything you can throw at it.

KD Innovations · 09-10-2011, 02:20 PM

Are we are ready to port those blowers!

devildoc · 09-10-2011, 05:24 PM

Did they already announce the HP/TQ numbers on the ZL1 and I just missed it? Otherwise I will def take those 580hp/556tq numbers and pay money!

Yeah I seen that as well. At the 1 min 34 sec mark it displays the HP and TQ rating as 580hp and 556tq. I have not seen or heard of anything with these numbers. The last I seen Al Oppenheiser announced in a video that it would be more than the 550hp of the CTS-V.
