I couldn't spend a whole lotta time looking at the Speedo... It's a rocket.
And there is more then plenty people that have got 11.7 stock on the Z. It's all about the right conditions and right driver.
My comment was on the 0-60 . The GT is .3 seconds faster.. not enough to ever feel. Not to me anyways.... and yes I've owned both.

Most people don't feel the acceleration as much in a ZL1 because it is so smooth, another reason it is a better car.

Maybe it a bus length maybe it's a smart car length.. maybe with the right driver it's the other way around.
I simply don't care about quarter miles, I don't race and simply don't have the time for it my life. I was interested in the all around best Looking and performing car and obviously the ZL1 was it. Even now the hell cat is out it will still be the better car all around because of the excessive bloated weight of the Dodge. ...that's with dodges newest and best, man can you imagine when the 6 Gen is released.... a lot of you people will be going into hiding...

So now the Hellcat is an overweight pig, huh? What does that make the ZL1? And please give us more details about the 6 Gen, I am sure we all want to know what it will weigh and what kind of performance it will have. I am also waiting for the 2025 GT500, its gonna be a beast...

Hit the back road twistys using 2nd and 3rd gear at above 3000 rpm and you'll feel your stomach float. The power comes on hard and the upcoming turns mess with most people's mind
