GM Marketing Claim: Nuremberg (don't crucify the spelling)
Why? Because whole car, magnetic ride, hp, etc . . .

Dodge Marketing Claim: 1/4 mile
Why? Because it can't compete on suspension, handling, etc . . .

Dodge needs to beat the ZL1 at the track, not the 1/4 mile.
Much harder to modify a Dodge to beat the ZL1 at the track than to modify a ZL1 to beat a dodge at the 1/4 mile.

I agree with you but the problem is here in America people value 1/4 miles times and HP ratings. In terms of marketing Dodge is exactly where they want to be.
