That's friggen fast. I wonder how it's geared and what it's top speed was in the straight away. I would also like to know what tired it had compared to the CTS-V. Very impressive to say the least.

I am also very curious to know what tires. I would be very surprised if it wasn't those new Michelin sport cup tires, and if it wasn't those tires...well done Camaro team!

Nope , the Camaro ZL1 that was at our offices (the same one that set the Nurburgring time) rode on stock Michelin Pilot Sport tires — the same tires the Cadillac CTS-V uses.

I just noticed this on the motor trend website by one of the editors in the comments section.

I think is the tipping point where I am going to seriously talk to the wife about getting one of these. Gonna take a BIG downpayment, but it looks to be worth it, that is for sure.
