Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
So what is all the Hoop-La?
When and if Chevy building the COPO? How many$$$$? What is HP rating? What is shipping weight? Who will build these cars for Chevy? How many will they build? When will NHRA approve? After all 50 are built? It would seem there are more unanswered Questions than Answered? Seems as though SEMA show was a fishing trip for GM execs! |

Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
If you go on the GM performance web site it says plainly that this is a concept car and you can have them contact you if and when it is built.

Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
ZL1 Top speed = 184 mph wo-wee ! ! ! Chevrolet Camaro Aces Crash Test Published November 15, 2011 | FoxNews.comBoy, that Bumblebee can sure take a hit. The 2012 Chevrolet Camaro is the first car to get a perfect score on [COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]the [COLOR=blue !important]National [COLOR=blue !important]Highway [/COLOR][COLOR=blue !important]Traffic [/COLOR][COLOR=blue !important]Safety [/COLOR][COLOR=blue !important]Administration[/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR] (NHTSA) 5-Star Safety Rating test since a more rigorous testing procedure was instituted last year. The two-door coupe received five stars in all categories, including frontal, side and rollover collisions. So far only a couple of dozen cars have been put through the new tests, making it likely that more will ace it in the coming months, but that doesn’t make the Camaro’s results any less impressive. For comparison, the similar in size 2012 Ford Mustang only managed to get a four-star overall rating. The results come out just as Chevrolet announces the official performance specifications of its new super-[COLOR=blue !important][COLOR=blue !important]Camaro[/COLOR][/COLOR], the ZL1. According to the automaker, the 580 hp muscle car can accelerate from 0-60 mph and has a top speed of 184 mph. Prices will start at $54,995 when it goes on sale early next year.

Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
I'll see your 580hp, 184mph "might show up someday" camaro and raise you,
650hp, 600tq, 200+ mph 2013 Shelby mustang, available at your local Ford dealer! BWAHAHAHAHAHA! http://www.autoblog.com/2011/11/15/2...straight-from/ "Six hundred and fifty horsepower. Six hundred pound-feet of torque. Over 200 miles per hour. With specs like these, you don't need long-form introductions. This is the 2013 Ford Shelby GT500, and all we can say is, the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 has officially been put on notice." |

Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
Just a couple of pictures of the prototype at SEMA that I finally took off of my phone. If you don't like Mopar, and you aren't crazy about Ford, then you have to love this potential Mustang Killer.

So I will just tell you that the rear suspension looks very familar as in just like my Drag Pak. But it does come with an anti roll bar, that we had to add to our car. David The New Hemi Guy |

They got a ton of hits on their web page and a lot of guys showed-up ready to write checks. From what I saw, I doubt that they would have any problem selling 50 cars.

Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
Thanks Mickey. Couldn't agree more although I didn't want to be the first to say it here. The COPO version certainly doesn't help. The aspect ratio is simply miserable.

327, 5 speed cross, it over like a comp car at 10,400, could run high 8's

Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
WHOOO 9's right out of the box.
The Chevrolet COPO Camaro development group was in Bradenton, Fla., with the prototype version of the factory-prepared race car making shakedown runs on Monday. The group kept the car’s performance under a shroud of secrecy as they made several runs with the scoreboards turned off. Longtime class racer Mike Pustelny is the driver putting the new Chevrolet through its paces. We are told the car has already made it into the 9's despite a mild launch. A source tells CompetitionPlus.com that this COPO was built at Pustelny's MPR Race Cars shop with direction from Russ O'Blenes, Robin Wright, and Mark Kent of Chevrolet Performance.

Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
I'm guessing that GM will submit this combo to NHRA with a 305 HP rating.

LOL ! !
quote from another class racer. hmmm, 16 sec video, seems to "leave" at 8 sec, lifts at finish line (or sooner?), at 16=8? |
Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
Troy, you seemed to have made a mistake on the spec sheet. The hp numbers were incorrectly labelled as cam duration;
Cam duration (deg.) 233/276 @ 50 244/255 @ 50 244/255 @ 50 is actually HP Rating (net) 233hp/276tq@ 5000rpm 244hp/255tq@5000rpm 244hp/255tq@5000rpm Although I do understand chev has been waiting to see how the car performs before it announces the hp numbers so weight can be adjusted to beat the mustang....or try anyway. LOL! |
Re: 5TH Gen COPO Camaro
I think that GM has made it pretty clear that they are aimed at A and AA (and the new classes). They are interested in going heads-up with the Cobra Jet and Drag Pak. Not one person at GM has suggested otherwise.
