Such is the back story of the Black Chevrolet Camaro ZL1. Development engineers fussed over seven iterations of their customized Goodyear Eagle F1 Supercar 3 tires (three iterations are typical in vehicle development). They spent more than a year calibrating the 10-speed automatic transmission. And they made six separate trips to the Nürburgring in order to fine-tune the car, with the eventual payoff being a 7:29.60 lap, almost 12 seconds faster than its predecessor.
Having given it 650 horsepower and 650 pound-feet, the engineers leave it to the driver to exercise the restraint necessary to produce the best acceleration. Despite having launch control, the quickest way to 60 mph requires standing on the brake, then smoothly and slowly rolling into the throttle. The goal is to have the accelerator fully squeezed just as you shift into second. You must shift manually, else the autobox will upshift before the 6500-rpm redline, thinking your slow- moving right foot reflects a lack of commitment. Mastery begets glory. You’re moving a mile a minute after 3.4 seconds. The quarter-mile flashes past at 125 mph, just 11.5 seconds after releasing the brake.
With that being said this Grey Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 pairs perfectly with our Brixton Forged R11 RS wheels finished in Firecracker Black (Satin Clear).
