A lot of the ZL1's technology will be wasted, if one is only going to run a ZL1 at the drag strip. Some variant of the COPO Camaro, or a modified SS, may be a more appropriate use of one's funds, if one wants a Camaro intended primarily for the 1/4 mile.
I agree 100%.

That's why I backed out of buying a ZL1 and started modding my SS.
