Beacuse what you are saying here isn't true, that's why. Instead of arguing with people who couldn't read between the lines if it reached out and slapped them in the face I will just say this...I can guarantee you this..it is ALOT, ALOT harder to drive GT500's the right way than it is a Camaro SS with launch control. And if you can't figure out why, well, I don't know what else to say it would require thought which is beyond some people.

The GT will be a few hundred pounds lighter than the Camaro and will have maybe 26hp less? What's so hard to understand about that? Less weight, bascially same HP, you see where I'm going with this. I think that makes for a pretty good race.
