introduction

The DNA of the 2012 Camaro® ZL1

  

is undeniable. Its muscular looks  

bear a strong resemblance to that  

of the original 1969 version. What  

sets the modern ZL1 apart are the 

smart new ways it applies the brute 

force of its 580 horsepower V8. Mag-

netic Ride Control, high-G fuel pickups, 

optional paddle shifters – it’s a whole 

new breed of Camaro that’s as big a 

threat on racing circuits like Nürbur-

gring as it is at the stop light.
This 1/10-scale recreation of the  

2012 Camaro ZL1 is completely  

assembled and ready-to-run. While 

the battery is charging, you must take 

a little time and read this manual. 

In its pages you’ll find helpful setup 

and charging tips as well as a handy 

troubleshooting guide. It’s all here to 

make sure your experience at the  

wheel is the best it can be.
