I have a question for the Pill. In what world did the GT500 "whoop" the ZL1? It is .1-.2 seconds faster in the 1/4 mile but immeasurably slower on any significant road coarse. While I think he has some valid points in regards to the Z/28, his comments on the ZL1 -vs- GT500 are WAY off. I can't find a single trade mag that prefers the GT500 over the ZL1. Car and Driver, Motortrends, Automobile, etc..etc..have all give a nod for the ZL1.
And as far as the Z/28, if I get one, I am not looking to race anything sanctioned. I am going to go and have blast at my local road coarse racing against MYSELF (timed laps) more than anyone else. The idea that the Z/28 missed the mark because it has parts that are not allowed by specific sanctioning bodies is about the dumbest thing I have ever heard. If I wanted a sanctioned car, I would build one from scratch or buy a S or R that are NOT street legal by the way. Chevy built a car that will rip the a$$ off anything Ford has that is street legal within $50K and has also elevated the conversation to leave Ford playing with itself while the Camaro goes looking for Porsche, Ferrari, and GT-R's. If this upset the Pill, he can wait for the promise of the GT-350 while those of us who can get the Z/28 are driving the reality of the now and present Z/28...regardless of what some sanctioning body has to say about it. LOL..honestly...who cares.
