Chevrolet has released new information about the Camaro ZL1, ahead of its launch later this year.
Designed for maximum performance, the car has a unique front fascia, a ventilated hood and a front splitter. There's also aerodynamic side skirts, extended wheel arches, underbody panels and a rear spoiler. Thanks to these tweaks, the ZL1 produces 65 pounds of downforce - at 150 mph (241 km/h) - compared to the SS' 200 pounds of lift.
As a refresher, the ZL1 is powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter V8 engine with 580 hp (432 kW / 588 PS) and 556 lb-ft (754 Nm) of torque. It is paired to a six-speed manual transmission, but a six-speed automatic is optional.

@SirGarforth I always thought of S as area (be it front/side/back/under), just helped me see the problem in a real world picture in my head. I'm actually quite enjoying this. I never actually knew the C3's created 13.9 pounds of down force, even with the lights up.

@TheBulldawg4life I'm sorry you had to get involved in this. I just don't think there's any talking to this guy...

@ratmtbola Did......did you just say what I think you said? "Drag coefficient has nothing to do with downforce"? DRAG COEFFICIENT HAS EVERYTHING TO DO WITH DOWNFORCE, YOU IDIOT!!!!!! The formula for down force is as follows: D= 1/2 x (S x H x AoA) x F x p x V squared. D= downforce in newtons, S= span of the car, H= height of the car, AoA= angle of attack (incline of the car), F= DRAG. COEFFICIENT. p= air density and V= velocity.

@ratmtbola You haven't PROVEN anything other than your ignorance of not only cars, but physics in general. I'm actually glad you've brought that to my attention. Now, I can stop wasting my time with you.
