Despite its power deficits compared to say the Ford Mustang GT500, the Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 is even more capable on the track. Why? Well, you can thank the hard working folks at General Motors for that.

The engineering which went into creating the Z/28 is truly jaw-dropping. The fact that its 305 section front tyres are the largest currently used by a production car gives you just some indication of just how performance oriented the new Camaro Z/28 is. These tyres, which are the Pirelli P Zero Trofeo Rs, actually create so much grip and braking performance that the tyres would actually slip on the wheels. This is a problem which generally only occurs on racing cars.
In order to resolve the problem, Chevrolet media blasted the inside rim of each wheel to ensure that the tyres could not slip. Very impressive indeed!
