I won't post them all here but feel free to look up the numbers obtained by your favorite magazine and you will see how close the numbers are.

"Driver's race" is far too common of an excuse. Yes, a driver's capability makes a significant difference, but how far do you want to take that? An automatic Accord or Camry will stay right next to a bogged and mis-shifted STi from a dig to about 70 MPH. Is that a "driver's race" too?

The SS has enough of an acceleration advantage over the Z to where the outcome would be clear with both drivers of the same competency level. In outright acceleration, as in from a 60 MPH roll, an SS should walk away from a Z. Their trap-speed advantage is evidence of that, on top of the huge discrepancy in 0-140+ acceleration.

I am in no way "taking sides" with the Camaro. I've obviously made a choice of the Z over the Camaro for many...I'm just not blinded by my own bias. I'm a realist.
