Add in an electric motor boost. Like the motor from the Bolt. Make it with 20 minutes run time at full throttle. Most tracks have 20 minute sessions. The powerful torque could also help off road. Regeneration would help with brake dust. Chevy already developed the electric motor and the Volt integrated the gas and electric motors. Seems the way of the future.

If I’m looking for performance there is no better bargain then the Camaro SS. I think to be realistic it can only be a turbo 6 and with the price of a RS. They would price themselves out of the market any other way. Offering a more diverse group of packages could also get the price manageable ?

You are correct of course. Price is already a big concern with the Blazer. I would be much happier if they tuned it to the 335 hp the engine is rated for (and is available with in the Camaro). The Blazer is probably 500 pounds heavier than the Camaro and not a performance threat. I'm just amazed Chevy felt it nessary to detune it 30 hp. Aftermarket tuning would just release Chevy from the drivetrain warranty. There is a lot of complexity in that drivetrain.
