That ZL1 needs a better driver.
And the OP needs to spell Camaro correctly.

You need to get your "facts" straight.
also has the gt 500 ever been proven to reach 200 mph? last i checked it couldn't quite do it.

apples for apples the gt500 should always be faster in the straight line. it is lighter and has more HP. way she goes.

1st race, you can clearly see the mustang won by far.
2nd race, camaro driver got intimidate by the mustang.

Still, camero is a good car...

Maybe the camero can win against challenger srt8 392 ...
With the times the ZL1 posted a 392 could easily win. I can wait to run my buddy in a couple of months.

I wonder what this guy's screen name is at the stang forums.

We all know the ZL1 is at a disadvantage straight line.

No worries, you will definitely run faster times than that ZL1 if you can drive. I run faster than that in my L99

I'm hope to make some passes without him before our day. I told him that he owed me some practice passes because he ran several times last summer in his and I haven't even barely ran my car to the end of town yet. I only have 60 miles on it.

I would definitely let the car break in before you start to beat on it. Others might differ

Watch out for those 392s especially if it is an automatic.

The GT500 has not hit 200 to date...Google is your friend. They fell short both times they tried. Furthermore the Gt500 get raped on a road course by the ZL1. please research before posting nonsense.
