2018 Camaro ZL1 Dyno Testing for NASA Time Trial Classing
NASA Time Trial classing requires that competitors have certified dyno results for classing by horsepower to weight. Today I went to CES Motorsport in Charlotte, NC to get three pulls and the paperwork for classing. My mostly stock 2018 Camaro ZL1 made an impressive 570 rwhp, 569 ftlbs. This is excellent given the power loss through the automatic.
Update: The average HP per the NASA calculation was 563 and this places me in TT2 with 100 TW Goodyear 3R Tires. The flat curve means the average of the four highest 250 RPM points is incrementally different from the peak.

Carolina Motorsports Park New Asphalt Track Results!!! Great Lap Times!!!
Carolina Motorsports Park hosted their first Turn One Track Day after a full repaving and the track is fast. The track layout is unchanged, but the new engineered track surface makes the track feel completely different. The new pavement is fast and is easy on tires. The asphalt is a special mix for race tracks and has a hardened, smooth outer layer. Best lap time was a 1:41.6!
