Also, keep in mind, the GM guys said that the car only shares 33% of it's components with the SS, everything else has been upgraded to one extent or another.
In response to your last sentence. The cars at the Optima Challenge are merely shells of classic muscle cars. Everything underneath from the motors, to the suspension, to the brakes are brand new, top-of-the-line aftermarket technology. Each of those cars most likely costs upwards of $70K-$85K to build when it's all said and done, so I would hope they could beat mildly modified newer cars that retain many of the stock parts.

Na our modified will not be anything like the zl1, they'll be better and us modified guys are waiting for the 10 of you on this site who will actually buy one. Polish that ZL1 badge nice and pretty, its the only thing your gonna have to brag about against the modders
