The OP mentioned nothing about comparing them, just stating a fact. Nothing with "what ifs".

Taken out of context, either ignorant or a cheap shot. I said just the tires is all anyone needs changed to put both cars in a fair test of the zl1's 80% from SS change vs the z28's 200 mods

It is explicitly implied. What else is meant by, " one car is faster than the other," it is a comparison.

Eh, no point really made or stuck, but have a good one anyway.

I clearly think you are underestimating this car and all that has went into it. ITS NOT JUST TIRES. I could be wrong and you could be right. Time will tell.... |

The same thing can be said about strapping a blower on a 6.2. It's only a marketing decision, right? GM engineers called for specific tire specs and the tires they are using met those. |

The z28 is the faster track car, I think that's obvious. With the same tires the z28 will still be quicker in the corners and getting out of them, and the rest will be up to how long the straights are for the zl1 to make up time.

"505 HP 427, surprise we meant 600hp 427." Or "Did we suggest 3700 lbs, we meant 3300, with an aluminum frame, magnesium sub frame, and balsa wood floors and carbon hood roof trunk wheels trunk floor. Lithium battery too. Price is now only 110,000, but it beat the zl1 at the ring by 8 seconds" Haha, still if they went that far with the mods, that would be awesome for Camaro people everywhere. I say hell.yeah.

That is where I am in large disagreement. Id like to see GM prove this. Either way, someone will soon after the cars release
