Its not a Z28. It doesnt fit the history.
Trans Am never stayed true to to any engine or performance pedagry. Thats why its dead.
Z28, however, has always been about total performance. It never had a big block to make power, it never used power adders or any sort of massive displacement engines. It was born from homologation racing. Z28 has been the race car for Camaro from day one, born from Trans Am, then following into IROC series in the 70's and till 90.
It continued to do well in SCCA racing series with the 4th gen as well.
The Camaro will enter the SCCAs Koni Challenge in the Grand Sport class, going fender to fender with the Mustang FR500.
THAT Camaro should have a direct relationship with the Z28.
