body roll can be tuned out easy. its good to hear that the overall feel of the car gets the approval. assuming that anyone cares what .JR has to say. It looks like chevy has finally realised what a good interior looks like

hes probaly been driving different updated versions on and off the entire time.
ill bet they did something about that body roll, seeing as it was such an early stage of production and it really was his only negative point. ands yes!!! that looks like a silver maro' w/ SS stripes. of course, we can only speculate on whether its an SS or not. |

I don't think anything on here is production final. This was Dale Jr test the pre production to give opinions on how they should tweek it for the final production version
I can't think of anyone I would rather have to test the pre-production car and give critiques for the final version, I just wish Sr was still around to test it. |

That's an old video, bet the upgrade suspension is solid as a rock.
Pedders is all over it too, no worries on the handling I'm sure.

how about a real driver like Sebastien Loeb
I'm sure the production car will have some body roll. with such a heavy chasiss it would be difficult to cure without degrading ride quality. Remember GM is counting on this camaro to appeal to the masses so ride quality will have to be a major concern if the average suzie is compairing it to the mustang. I'm sure all the questions will be answered soon enough. Exiting times

Not sure if it was the same car doing the drift and then the rest of the presentation but it sure sounded like V-6 cadence to me. I wanna hear da rumble of a 6.2. But then I wouldn't mind hearing this with turbo whine and diesel exhaust and 35mpg. My idea is to see what this is like in person and then decide if I keep my GTO or not. I just might be too late. Maybe the Ms will want one of these instead of a 65 Mustang. Maybe she better get a better frackin job!
And thank you Meghan! |
