2022 Camaro ZL1 1LE NASCAR Unveiled In Charlotte

Humpy Wheeler made Charlotte Motor Speedway a mecca for all things racing. As such, NASCAR collaborated with GM, Ford and Toyota to engineer the 7th-generation race cars. Becoming closer to stock cars once again. Known as “Next Gen” the Camaro ZL1 1LE is kinda close to what you can buy at our Chevy dealers.

Chevrolet’s new look on the racetrack will more closely connect to its cars in the showroom when Chevy campaigns its Next Gen Camaro ZL1 race car starting next season in the NASCAR Cup Series.
Chevrolet’s Performance Design studio worked closely with racing engineering to optimize aerodynamics on the Next Gen Camaro ZL1 race car while incorporating features that undeniably showcase the similarities between the race car and production Camaro ZL1.

The ZL1 Super Speedway Camaro has a lower greenhouse and shorter trunk lid. The symmetrical body offers great downforce, and the independent rear suspension offers incredible grip on the high-banked turns. Instead of the traditional 4-speed transmission, a new rear-mounted transaxle was borrowed from the Corvette ZR1. Chevrolet will be diving deep into the car’s details Saturday night at 8, so bookmark this link:

This offers perfect weight distribution without adding lead to the corners like the old-timers did. The front and rear suspension ride on subframes can be quickly changed out after friendly contact with the wall or a rookie driver. I might have to get back on the NASCAR bandwagon, but I wouldn’t trade my SVE Camaro SS for anything. Their new SVE Yenko Stage II Camaro makes 1,050 horsepower, and you will see it on the Motor Expo field at Amelia Island two weeks from now. Stay with us for all your Camaro news.
