Newest video of Z28 at the Nurburgring - 2+ minutes - Page 5

2SSRS@Gen5diy · 05-19-2016, 05:18 PM

I see a lot of slightly used C7 Z06+07 cars for sale ones the lap time and info about the new Z/28 hit the mags.

I don't hear any whine at all, but that exhaust is damn loud.

If that is a ZL-1 at :28 second mark, I can't hear a s/c. You would think it would be audible as it seemed to be accelerating towards the camera....?

Just sayin', the audio in all the other videos are probably not a good indicator of s/c or not s/c...It could be (and probably is in this red ZL-1), but it's not heard in the video...

+1...the 1LE package, as impressive as it is, is just that: a track package for the SS model. Changing the engine requires many other changes that no longer retains the "SS" identity.

Maybe...but that that price-point, I think many of them were bought as hp and garage queens.

Nah. You might get some cross-over but Corvette people are Corvette people. Plus, despite how well it performs, it'll still be "just a Camaro." Corvette is top dog for a reason, it has the image and pedigree to back it up.

I can see people who track a lot jumping ship, but that's it.

And thats the ones i meant, the ones that cant get 20 min at the track. i know they fixed that, but i have to-date only seen one car run a full 20 min, and that was last track event we where at, and it was a M7 car.

Guys, you all are making this very difficult - the answer to what this car is and its name has been sitting in front of us for a while now. That is all I'm going to say...

Obviously, it's the Berlinetta.

I wonder how you apply for that job???? The guy is really consistent...I watched it several times and he shifts at almost exactly the same spot each time. Early in the video it sounded like an automatic and later, not so much.

tbrennyZL1 · 05-23-2016, 10:57 PM

I honestly don't hear the blower whine, but I'll tell all of you guys that as a Z06 owner with an LT4, the blower isn't noticeable. I have been WOT a ton of times and even in the car you can barely hear it. So it could be supercharged but the LT4 just isn't a noticeable blower.

Of course it is. We just don't know which name it is.
