GT500 will destroy the Camaro in the 1/4 mile but since that has happened magically many of you all of the sudden care about autocross

Funny how the measure being touted for supremacy by the Dearborn Dandies is 1/4-mile-only. Based solely on a 662 hp number. That, in production trim, is an unknown quantity in the hands of the "great unwashed".
"One Trick Pony" comes to mind...for SURELY you'll agree the GT 500 stands ZERO chance on a roadcourse vs. the "underpowered/traction-limited/over-weight" ZL1...right? After all, the GT 500 at 550 hp, its stable-mate the BOSS LS kicked its hiney @ VIR...and the lowly under-$40K 1LE beat the Best-handling BOSS...and the ZL1 tramples 'em ALL! What the Camaro needs is some REAL competition...not some hobby-horse pretend-a-car with the influences of one very old chili-peddler... Bring 'er to VIR, and let the clocks decide... |

Hell of a motor. GM is going to have a tough time matching it with only 16v OHV technology at its disposal. It might be time to slap a TVS 2300 (or better) on a 7.0 block.

sure you can, you just don't want to. Its the best GM has to offer today against the best Ford has to offer today. What's wrong with that comparison?

I love it! Because in the end we the consumer will reap the benefits of auto maker competition.

With that amount of power, if it doesn't beat the ZL1 around the Nurburgring then they got problems.
