Think about it, this is how this will go down. The ZL1 with spank the gt500 on the road course but the gt500 will spank the zl1 in a straight line.

The gt500 with a 5.8 coyote engine with a tvs and all the latest technology, fully forged will make stupid power. This car will make around 750rwhp with a pully, tune and basic stuff like that and be 400-500lbs lighter than a zl1. In a straight line the zl-1 will be getting smoked by this thing.

Now on the other hand the zl1 is what you want for handleing, it has all the zr-1 susspension systems on it, magnetic shocks, ptm system etc. The gt500 will not be able to keep up with this car on a road course.

So in the end it boils down to what kind of car you want, Do you want brute acceleration, get the gt500. If you want a car with supercar like handleing and some decent power get the zl-1
