The fastest and most track-capable Camaro
ever is going to be inquired about by many, and here at Chuck Hutton of Memphis, we
were spot-on and ready to let our readers know about the new available 10-speed
automatic transmission on board. One reason why the GM Pressroom had an
in-depth feature about it this last week was because during its development,
the engineers really pushed the limits of the automatic transmission, with the
ultimate goal of making it one more half-second faster than its standard manual
counterpart on the Milford Road Testing Course.
On longer tracks like the Nurburgring where you
can really dig and take full advantage of the ability to shift faster than
ever, and drivers will be able to expect to whittle off several seconds from
lap times nailed down by means of the six-speed manual ZL1 1LE. The
transmission is now fully optimized for speed, and due to sporting ten gears
and very unique Track Mode calibrations, you always have the ability to be in
the perfect gear when you are engaging off or on the throttle. The addition of
the new transmission not only saves time, it allows for more performance
options, and provides standard paddle shifters to ultimately brandish a more
engaging driving experience.
The electronic limited slip differential,
performance traction management system, as well as transmission all saw unique
calibrations during its development, and the front and rear multimatic dampers
have been tuned specifically to help with weight transfer during the
now-quicker shifts. Director of Chevy passenger car and crossover marketing
Steve Majoros claimed recently that “This ultimate 1LE is another appealing
option that is true to its racing heritage, and an example of just what
customers want.” Other unique features such as the specific air deflectors and
dive planes on the front fascia produce grip-generating down force that gives
the car faster turning capability.
When you are moving at a pace that is descriptive
by no other means than “breakneck,” you're going to notice the outright benefit
of adjustable suspension: front and rear dampers offer vehicle and wheel
control that is off-the-charts exact. The lighter dampers and wheels, along
with thinner rear glass and a fixed-back rear seat make the ZL1 50 pounds
lighter than the outgoing model, and the dual-zone automatic climate control
will help you be at optimum comfort level in any weather conditions you choose
to conquer.
The specific lightweight forged aluminum wheels
are an inch wider, and also an inch smaller in the diameter, front, and rear
then standard ZL1 wheels, and are paired exclusively with the new summer-only
Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3R tires. These all do their part in ultimately and
thrillingly tying the package together with the ultimate in grip-and-handling
ready prime racing prowess!
Very nice information that you have shared and thanks for sharing the information with us.
