I was also pretty amazed by how many guys over in the Camaro forum think the Camaro SS will handle as well as the 370z.

I posted over a Camaro5.com to try to bring them down to Earth.

The 370z only weighs 3350 lbs and runs on 275 series rear tires (Touring).
The Camaro SS weighs 3900 lbs and runs on 275 series rear tires.
So which car do you think will handle the best? That along with the fact that the 370z is pulling .98 G's - .99 G's on the skid pad pretty much seals the deal.
There's no way the Camaro SS is going to pull those kind on numbers on the skid pad.

Drag strip- Camaro SS > 370Z
Road course- 370Z > Camaro SS

Welcome, and thanks for bringing realistic, analytical-thought with you! I was a fellow GTO owner myself, great car!
