The base GT500 will do just that for less $ than the ZL1.

If I were to use it for the occasional road course events, I would get the SVT package. I believe the car needs it to chase a ZL1 in roads with turns. There is a misconception that you need the SVT performance package AND the track package to roadcourse.

If I were to use it for more than the occasional roadcourse runs, I would add the track package as well.

I really like that Ford has done it this way. Giving the customer the options to be excellent at each venue or all, as they choose.

Exactly this.
