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
If it really is like that than I would pick the zL1 as the better car. But I think when it's all said and done, both these cars would be sO fast and close to eachother that the human element would have a way bigger effect on the results than the mechanical differences.
