I used to be Dragoneye...

The ZL1 appears to be more composed and controllable...while the Subaru seems more nimble.
Cool video(s)! ...I am, however, detecting some anti-ZL1 undertones to some posts...please remember where you are before you (you know who you are) takes something personally...and refrain from raining on our parade. Quote:
ZL1's biggest advantage is handling and stability...it is a relatively easy car to drive fast, and it's on-track limits are stratospheric. Put an awesome driver behind the wheel, and the combination is nuclear. |

If Ford or anyone does ever release some ring times I'd love to see some PP vs non-PP times.

Cool video, but I don't think I'd adjust my helmet at 135 mph.

1) The GT500 did not come near the times they wanted 2) They were simply Test driving it there and not taking times If the GT500 ever gets around the ring and laptimes are displayed it will be from a private tester which is not likely to happen, though I wish it would I would like to see what it lays down.

That's not what my second paragraph says?
I know they were there, well before the ZL1 time was released to boot, still didn't release times, never have. Which is why I said I'd LIKE to see Ford or someone release times

You have a fine car that offers incredible performance and commands respect in it's own right; no need to hate on the ZL1 to prove it. |

Ok, great point... Save for the fact that not one of my posts on this site has ragged on the ZL1.
Any other insight? I'm aware this site gets trilled heavily (whether or not it deserves it I'll keep to myself) but if people read my posts instead of lumping my name/sig with said trolls, there's plenty of discussion available.

I keep an open mind when car comparisons come up, however I chose my Camaro because I believed it was better at than the given Mustang/Challenger at the given time, as do most of the people on this forum, if they believed the Mustang or Challenger was better they would have bought one of those and probably be on that forum. I obviously don't mean that in a bad way but people choose what they think is better for whatever reason, Ford and Chevy go back and forth between the monsters they up each other constantly. Ford releases a 302 Boss for the track Chevy answers back with the 1LE, Chevy releases the ZL1 with 6 more horsepower to match Ford's GT500 and Ford responds with a 662 HP monster in return. It is never ending. What you believe is better is your own choice and everybody carries out that argument whatever way they see fit.
