lol...i hope you're joking.

Smash any car to bits and there'll probably be a fire. The Tesla is no different.

:icon17:

and at 75k, it's cheaper than what building my z into a track car was

Seen that before. Painful

That'll make a grown man cry, I'm sure.

Tesla on a track might be fun. Its a heavy car though.

I love the Z/28 for the way it does what it does well. The car is such a throwback (naturally aspirated, RWD, 6MT, stripped out, no frills etc...), and from what I've read the one thing folks who have driven the car seem to agree on is that it's an absolute blast to wring the hell out of this thing on a circuit. I think it's so disappointing when manufacturers all too often sacrifice driving excitement and enjoyment for a few precious tenths and ring times. What's also funny is that I've read a lot of snobbish "b-b-b-but, it's a POS Camaro" comments from haters, which is ironic coming from Nissan and GT-R fans given how the pro-Euro snobs trashed on the R35 when it first came to market. That said, as a track weapon and a full-blown tarmac terrorist, you can't take anything away from the Z/28. This thing is a beast when it's in its element. I love it, competition like this from around the way will only serve to make cars like the next GT-R and the next Z better. Kudos to GM for not being shy and for not holding the Camaro back the way they have in years past so as to not piss off the Corvette faithful.

:driving:

track day insurance helps remove some of "stress" about that. of course, you the price to insure a $160K car for a track event would be $$$, then again, if you own a $160K and are tracking it, then you can swing it.

/\ amen to this. :tup:

What I love is that Z28 out handled more powerful Porsche turbo. I can hear some Camaro driving mullet head now. It's not about power it's about balance and handling. What's next? Camaro club wine and cheese tours?

it beats the 911 GT3 too!
The 2014 Chevrolet Camaro Z/28 vs Porsche 911 GT3 racetrack time shootout with Andy Pilgrim - Autoweek

good price/performance, i still want a corvette though lol

finally watched the GTR vs Z28 track time video.

soooo the Z28 was .28 faster.........with carbon ceramic brakes....and track tires. thats actually sad. i dont care about the little price difference. that "track-designed" Z-28 is cool and just as fast but i'll take my $75 and either buy a new Vette or go grab some more money and get a new GTR for a little extra.

:twocents:

Ok...

GT-R Premium: $101K
GT-R Track: $115K



Besides, for the track, the GT-R isn't nearly as well suited.

the differences between the 3 GTR models is about 20-50lbs of weight and no power differences. so i'll go get a 2014 premium for $85k and only have spent 10k more than the Z/28 and only be (coincidentally) .28 or so slower on a track lol

i'll take the GTR

:confused: No, it did not.

I know....it's a moot point really. Props to the Camaro for keeping up and it was noted that the Porsche was more difficult to drive.

Dude, the 2014 Premium is 101k, that's what I just posted lol
