1. The ZL1 is limited by the front wheel and tire sizes.
2. The Z/28's lower CG (dropped the car 33mm) allows it to carry more speed in the corners.
3. 300 pounds lighter is another Z/28 advantage.
4. The Z/28 has a differential more suited to the track giving it an advantage putting power down out of the corners.
5. The Z/28 has an aero advantage over the ZL1 the create down force for improved cornering (but with a reduction in top speed).
6. The Z/28 is sprung for a road course at the direct expense of ride comfort for reduced lap times.
7. Tires D.O.T. Street Legal Slicks vs specially compounded GYs. Slam Dunk Z/28.
On tracks with long straights and sweeping turns the ZL1 with CC brakes will be close to the Z/28 for single throw down lap time. Take the same cars to a tight technical track and the Z/28 will really shine. Run 20 laps and the Z/28 walks away on any track.
#3, your thoughts?
