I swear I saw a statement from Mr. Tadge Juechter saying ZR1 is not the end... Anyways - I agree that Gen IV is on the way out, so :(

Unless the Z/28 goes on a diet...with the blower it'll probably weigh close to 4000lbs.
I just don't see GM testing the mule(Z/28) against the 2011 GT500, unless they plan to beat it. Not just in straight line performance, but handling as well.
