Our favorite car collector picked up a brand new 2017 Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 to teach country singer Brad Paisley how to create clouds of smoke, using nothing but the rear tires.
Of course doing burnouts is not that hard of a task if you consider that Chevrolet’s latest super-Camaro packs no less than 650hp and 650lb-ft of torque from its supercharged 6.2-litre V8.
This example has the standard six-speed manual gearbox and not the 10-speed automatic unit which helped the Camaro ZL1 lap the ‘Ring in 7:29.60, over 11 seconds faster than the previous-gen ZL1.
Chevrolet has also added a line-lock feature, which locks the front wheels independently for even easier burnouts, something we’ve seen more recently in the Ford Mustang as well. All the driver has to do is put the car in track mode, select the line-lock feature, floor the loud pedal and dump the clutch. Just don’t forget to put it in gear.
Then it’s time to sit back and enjoy watching the fastest current Camaro turn its rear tires into white clouds of happiness. Yep, it’s the little things in life.
