Shelby GT500 vs Camaro ZL1 Track Test Video - Inside Line
|
It's nice to finally see a GT500 vs. ZL1 video. After all the GT500 and ZL1 threads, nobody should be surprised here. GT500 has the acceleration advantage and the ZL1 handles better.
|
FINALLY.....a direct comparison between the ZL1 and '13 GT500 :clap:
|
Well that pretty much went down the way I was expecting. Thanks for posting.
|
I think everyone with an unbiased opinion could have seen this coming based on the numbers!
|
I am cool with our #'s.:thumbup:

You should see the kool aid drinking svt forum owners. They are trying to downplay and hate on the zl1. Excuses such as: These guys don't know how to test cars, The gt500 goes straight faster and that's the only thing that matters, Whoopdy the zl1 goes fast in a circle.
I own a cts-v and anyone whos driven an lsa car with mag ride knows what I'm talking about when I say it's a very well balanced car. It kills my 12 gt500 svt perf package car on the same twisty roads. That being said It seems as though the cts-v got similar numbers on the same test despite being 300lbs heavier and around 30hp down. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=USaqtXPKsO8 GM ZL1 CTS-V <3 |
After watching this I feel like the zl1 still didnt do that bad in the 1/4 mile with that extra weight and less power I'm still a proud camaro fan doesn't matter what.

This is just what people have thought since the GT500 anounced 650+hp. The ZL1 would lose at the strip, but be better at the track. Now it is going to depend on the track, small tight tracks will make the ZL1 shine, larger tracks with bigger turns and straights will favor the GT500. Unfortunatly for most of these cars, the only track they will see is the one that leads into the garage and allows room for the owner to get all the way around it to get the cover on correctly.

That video was hardly the comparison I'd like to see. Somebody test these things on a track. Lap times please.

This is one thing I don't understand, CTS-V is heavier and down 24hp, and ZL-1 has more tire to put it down. The Camaro should drop a few tenths there, no? |
