5th Gen Camaro: ZL-1@7:41.27 (580HP/556TQ) - Z/28@7:37.47 (505HP/481TQ)
6th Gen Camaro: ZL-1@7:29.60 (650HP/650TQ) - Z/28@N/A
While the 6th Gen chassis is light years ahead of the 5th Gen one, I think the increased HP/TQ numbers have also greatly contributed to the faster Ring lap time of the ZL-1...
I believe the rumor is that the Gen 6 Z/28 is to receive the same power plant that was in the Gen 5 Z/28.
If that's the case, I don't believe that the Z/28 will improve on it's time as much as the ZL-1 did. I speculate that the Z/28's time will be close to what the ZL-1 put down, albeit with less HP and TQ...and maybe weight.
