2013 Camaro 1LE Laps VIR Within Six Seconds Of Camaro ZL1

http://www.motorauthority.com/news/1...maro-zl1-video

"The net result is a car that sells for nearly $10,000 less than a Mustang Boss 302, yet comes track-ready right off the showroom floor. It’s got a Tremec TR6060-MM6 transmission (with external cooling), a revised suspension, larger stabilizer bars, ZL1 wheels and tires, ZL1 wheel bearings and the ZL1’s high-capacity fuel pump, ensuring that high g-loads don't cause fuel starvation issues."

I had to look to find the Boss 302 LS times and finally found it ran 302 +. This 1LE is an awesome car!

I have to think back when the Mustang 5.0 came out and all the Camaro guys were walking around lamenting, wearing poo poo faces. Now, the wide range of Camaro capabilities is putting that "permagrin" back on many of our faces. Dang...if the 1LE just had the same HP as the Boss, imagine what it could do. It's fun to read posts on the Mustang and GT500 forums, like: "yeah, GM through in a ringer", yeah, in your dreams! Way to go GM!!!!!
