Looks like the thermal management is solid with the car only dropping 1 mph on the back straight.

Is the camera incorporated into the Performance Data Recorder system?

I love manual transmissions, but no way am I better than the one in that car. #paradigmshift

Yes the camera stock and is behind the rear view mirror. It records data onto a mini SD card located in the glove box. We use the system all the time because you just hit record on the touch screen. Done!

Yes I'm a manual guy also but the new autos are very good. This car has the 8 speed auto which is good but the 10 speed in the Camaro is better.

Great move on integrating the camera!

The first video I watched/listened to of the Camaro at Spring Mountain sold me on the potential of new gen automatics......... then shortly after that a ride along with Matt in his Porsche Turbo with a PDK at Sonoma. The PDK's ability to determine up and downshift timing on a track I was familiar with amazed me. I hate to admit defeat, but no way can I beat a PDK.

Default Sluggish

And Tadge Juechter calls this car 'sluggish' compared to the new ZR1 . Any opinions there mark?
