I don't think wheel hop will be a huge issue...
Yesterday I had the pleasure of driving Pete Basica's (from Pedders) Procharged G8.
Well...read the title.

Didn't have a lot of time or much room to play and couldn't get it up to a high speed, but I did stomp on it a bit. Just a little...not my car and I didn't want to trounce it. How the boost came up fast, and there were no heavy shudder like some know all too well.

Just driving it, only had a parking lot distance at the time and not much time to play with it. Long story.

The mechanics of how this works are presently a nice, little GM engineering secret, but it's safe to say that the development that took place on the ZR-1 has been adapted to the Camaro project and will be introduced when the car is launched.
So is power hop on Camaro a thing of the past? That's the plan!

I had the pleasure of riding in the Pete's Pedderized G8 as well. We didn't test the off the line performance, but the spirited lane changes were very impressive
