It's 80 out here and the GT500 will beat the ZL1 there

Would be nice to cruise at 80. However, you have soo many miles between your cities. Hope you get your GT500 Lemers.

Yeah you said that. Next week I'm starting my move. First stop is a week in San Antonio 533 miles of 80 mph highway away. We will make it in 1 day, not that there is anywhere to spend the night on the way.

How many times will any of us get a ZL1 or GT500 to the ring anyways?

Plenty of Road Courses all over America that have events all the time...

You never need to go to the ring..Just drive to the local Track..Several in every state in the Union.

That vid of the 9.95 was impressive from the short list of bolt ons and same with the driving. To actually get behind a car that can lay that in the 1/4 and still drive around town is pretty insane. I am curious as to how it behaves in city traffic. Tame till WOT?

Real world/street...the GT500 owns the ZL-1 and I'd love to run into one in my GT500 which is a 2010. Mine dynoed 511 which is a few HP more than the ZL-1 stock dynos I've seen (my car is stock as well)

On the track, the ZL-1 will have better handling however, the GT500 can and will hold its own and a good driver can easily make the difference. I will admit that the ZL-1 has the edge when it comes to handling, no doubt about that.

On the strip/street I will say that BOTH the ZL-1 and the GT500 get significantly faster with a drag radial, I'm actually amazed that the GT500 (pre-13') puts down 0-60 in the 4's because I can tell you that 1st is essentially useless no matter how much you baby it and 2nd is OK for a moment then the tires light up. There are people who have switched to a drag radial *stock* and are running 11.6's to 11.8's at 120+ traps by simply changing to a drag radial. I'm sure the ZL-1 is in the same boat, the stock tires on the GT500 are horrible, I'm anxious to see how this car will be once I put a sticky tire on it because it is frustrating that 1st/2nd spin up so much.

They are both bad *** cars and I'm just happy to see good/fast cars being made again!
