Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 24-Hour Endurance Testing

Few people will actually know that the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 was developed on the Nurburgring test track in Germany, and even fewer would have known that they tested the car on a rigorous 24-hour run of the famous track had it not been for the third video detailing this 580 horsepower monster.
The engineers were keen to test not only the setup of the car, but also the calibration of the electronic traction control system which sends all that power from the V8 up front to the rear wheels.

We’d like to remind you that the 2012 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 comes from a LSA 6.2L supercharged V8 making 580 horsepower and 556 lb-ft of torque. If you’re lucky, you’ll be able to get one early next year.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
