I still find it funny that the Aztec was designed by the same guy that did the C7.

Provide one other viable reason thy would hold back a time when they have released it for previous models and now are touting it for the Camaro. There really isn't another logical reason.
Any car on any real race track is , if driven correctly, is flat out all the time, every corner, every straight, every braking zone, rpm not dropping below 2000 rpm from red line ,every time usually much less, with close ratio transmissions or transaxles. Lap after lap,
Hell, current NASCAR engines average 8000 rpm for the entire 500 mile race. If a car is on a track and it overheats, it needs to be modified....
GM has a problem .
