The ZL1 is a GREAT all round performance car.

A ZL1 would still not beat the Z/28 around a road course, even if it were 300 pounds lighter. The Z/28's lower CG alone makes a significant difference. Add to that the specially tuned coils and dampers, CC Brakes, dry sump motor, less unsprung weight, less unsprung rotating mass... It is a race car vs a street car.

One very important thought. The Z/28 isn't better than a ZL1. It is faster around a road course. The ZL1 isdn't better than the Z/28. It is faster in the 1/4 mile. They are both Zs, but they are very different Zs.

One last thought, they are both better PEDDERISED.

Good response.
So tell me what and why (the details) Pedder's on the Z28. Thanks.
