I watched the whole 1 hour episode, at the end when they announced the winner I felt like I was watching the Super Bowl or something. I was so happy it won!
I screamed F yea!

I'm a little late to this party

Congrats Team Camaro, Al, Scott and GM! This is a great accomplishment and this car was slung against much pricier manufacturers where projects don't have such restricting budgets. This proves American Engineering is back on TOP just like it was in the good 'ol days.

I hope one day to be back in a 5th Gen and the Z/28 is the one I'm after.

I haven't watched the entire thing yet, but I'd love to hear him narrate that near spin at the bottom of the Corkscrew...

I'm one member that will tell it like it is. Z28 is an excellent creation that gets to the point and I love that. Doesn't look cheezey in real life either.

Danged impressive to me, GM. Lap times weren't that important in this comparo group since the Alfa wasn't all that fast in lap times...to be honest, the Alfa looked like a lot of fun. I would take any one of the cars tested, well, maybe not a Fiesta...lol.

There will be the usual excuses it wasn't ready yet, blah blah blah. The truth is they know it's not a track car.

"Truth is"? What is that supposed to mean? If you have an opinion say it, no need to make yourself seem ignorant by proclaiming to know the "Truth".

Great win by the Z/28. Shows what can be done when you engineer a car without compromise. Wish the Boss had been as hardcore...

Fbodfather just put up build numbers for the Camaros, including the Z/28...
