I am just contemplating what changes would be needed to a stock 1LE for SC vs bumping power on NA basis, but I have no eminent plans to do either. Right now I am just curious how the added weight is distributed on a ZL1 and what did GM do to accommodate that added weight. My guess is the larger brakes have more to do with the added power than a few hundred pounds weight difference. Last edited by DFW1LE; 12-27-2016 at 08:42 AM. |

Does anybody know for sure what class the SCCA is placing this car is for autocross and such?

Perhaps my curiosity in 1LE vs ZLI differences are premature and really should wait until the Z/28 comes out. I for one, am hoping the Z/28 is a lighter weight, NA car, and if that is the case, it might be a better one to compare against the 1LE.

When you stop a heavier car that might be going at a faster speed at the end of long straight, you will generate a lot of heat, so a cars weight and HP and speed potential have everything to do about brake size.

Which car will be going faster at the end of a long straight? Which car will be able to scrub off speed faster? Which car will generate more heat (friction) scrubbing off speed? Which car needs more braking surface to dissipate the heat?

I've got over 500 miles and the brake dust is ridiculous. Can I look forward to this all the time?

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 (mass) * (velocity)^2 Mass and velocity play a role for sure, but the energy will rise exponentially with velocity. Your statement above claims the velocity increase to be negligible and this is not true. |
