And you'll still be lacking HP. 615 don't get it done. Too many 13/14 GT500 runnin around with AT LEAST 700 RWHP. It's just too easy... Spend more.

What is the fastest time for a street legal GT500?

I agree There is no comparison in the acceleration feel between the two.

Nice excuse, people usually use that when they know they can't come up with an answer.

I guess I don't feel like doing your leg work. I'm actually edging and mowing my lawn right now and checking in on your ridiculous posts in between beer breaks.

Honestly, it will be enough for me. I do agree that the ZL1 as delivered is not overwhelming in the straight line but is quite a rush in the back roads.

I took my car the the strip this morning and it got boring quick. There are HPDE events coming up at Road America and Milwaukee Mile that I'm looking forward to trying.

Cool. I'm gonna do the next Texas Mile. And I need to hit the dyno and 1/4 to see what the new mods do. My 13-6 kit is badass. Need new tires asap.

He don't know what his point is. It could be that the fastest street legal ZL1 turns better.

Lol, or that the fastest street legal ZL1 is still slower than the GT500...
