UPDATE: Watch The Be-Winged 2018 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 Go Testing At The ‘Ring And Have A Big Off

The sixth-gen Camaro-based Z/28 has been spotted testing at the Green Hell, and it's packing a stupidly aggressive aero package

Given that the sixth-generation Camaro is a hell of a lot lighter than the previous version, the next Z/28 should be quite some beast. In fact, the weight reduction of the latest Camaro is drastic enough to make the current SS as fast to 60mph as the old Z/28 - four seconds dead - so expect a sub-four second time for the new car.

Engine wise, there’s no question the car seen testing at the Nurburgring is packing a V8 - we’re just not 100 per cent sure what kind of eight-banger we’re looking at. Given the lack of supercharger noise, the 7.0-litre GM LS7 used in the previous Z/28 seems likely.

Update: it seems the Z/28 test mule’s recent ‘Ring sessions haven’t quite been without incident, as you’ll see from the updated video embed above. Judging by the monster lock-up, we can only imagine the ABS was disabled for whatever reason.

Better if it crashes in a track rather than in the street, altough im a import guy i say that america is catching up with their vehicles, but they would need to do a serius size and weight reduction…
