That part! Seriously.... to compare a $73k car to a $525k car is insane...
I am still amazed at the amount of car we get for only $~70k

Those were tests done on different days. Not appples to apples comparison. ZL1 will hang in there though.

Wait till the 2019 ZR1 runs the lightning lap and smokes the GT.

agree 100% .. but at $120,000 for the ZR1 (before dealer markup), you are inching towards super car prices

And like everyone else is saying, with that much development, with that much track-specific engineering and lack of every-day drive-ability, and that price, it damn well better beat the ZL1-1LE. If the ZR-1 even gets close, within a second, THAT will be something...

Ehhh...2.7 seconds is a buttkicking, lol!! But that is the only Ford that can do it! I'm not sure if the ZR1 will beat it but I'll be looking forward to the results.

I am pretty sure the ZR1 will be faster in the 1 lap game. Very sure.

Three seconds might as well be 12 parsecs. I would consider three tenths of a second to be narrow. Nevertheless the Camaro is a world beater at it's price point.
