Chevrolet Camaro Z/28.R revealed for the IMSA Continental Tires SportsCar Challenge

Chevrolet has recently unveiled the new Camaro Z/28.R.

Set to be campaigned by Stevenson Motorsports and CKS Autosport in the GS class of the IMSA Continental Tires SportsCar Challenge, the Z/28.R has been described as one of the “most production-based competitors on the track.” As a result, the race car comes equipped with the same aerodynamics package as the road-going model. The car also comes fitted with the same limited-slip differential and 7.0-liter V8 mill as the production model.

According to Chevrolet Racing Director Mark Kent, “Apart from series-mandated equipment and the specialized suspension components needed for endurance racing, the Z/28.R is as close to a production-spec race car as you’ll find.”

Chevrolet’s Lisa Talarico further stated that the new Camaro Z/28.R was a significant advancement from the GS.R that had already won multiple races in the Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge in the last three years. He further said that they expect the new engine package, suspension components and aerodynamic improvements to help their teams to achieve further successes in the 2014 GS class.

We wish the team of Chevrolet all the best for the upcoming races and hope they get the same success as earlier years.
