I would have never thought there would be people getting butt hurt over a Camaro that can play in the same play pen as super cars. You guys crying with every post you hit send on pays a huge compliment to
this awesome car that GM has built. Its like Tom Brady or Jimmy Johnson. People always hate you when your the best.

For the record there are ZL1s that have hit high 10s bone stock and plenty that have gone low 11s bone stock. But thru testing, both cars have done 11.4s. They are neck and neck man no matter how you slice it when pitting the A10 against the A8. M6 ZL1 to M7 Z06 might have the Z06 edging it out but not enough to say it isn't a driver's race.
Chevy claimed Z06 A8 could do 10.95. You seemed to disagree. This proved you wrong.

They arent neck and neck in the 1/4 mile. Z06 is clearly faster. Deal with it.

GM claimed a 10.95. Yet it has never officially run a 10.95 while tested in the hands of an independent 3rd party tester. If you have any source that proves me wrong then by all means post it...please. Private owner on YT doesn't count as official BTW.

In EVERY official test done that I have seen, the fastest a Z06 has run was an 11.4. The fastest a ZL1 has run in official testing was an 11.4. That is exactly the same. Deal with it bud.

I honestly have no idea where these people come from or how they all end up here on this forum and this thread. It's like every psycho who knows nothing about cars finds their way here and tries to argue.

Car and Driver tested a 2015 Z06 A8 at 11.1 the 1/4 mile.

https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews...ll-test-review

And Motor Trend has it at 11.2 in the 1/4 mile.

http://www.motortrend.com/cars/chevr...06-first-test/

So...yeah. Deal with that.

Maybe we should go back to arguing about nitrous. It made more sense than what these guys are trying to spew. Lol

And for fun the fast lap list of Laguna Seca has the Z06 1.25 seconds faster than the ZL1 1LE.

The Corvette is supposed to be the GM flagship. My beef isnt with it at all. It's the big brother in the same family. My beef is with these people that type nonsense about Mustangs with bolt ons and other blah, blah, blah that doesnt mean anything or choosing to ignore the fact the Camaro and Supercar are seen in the same paragraph over and over again these days. Hell, im amazed that people fork over 70grand for Camaro. That's a compliment in itself.

I'm in a bar drinking...troll.

Those times (12.2) are within a driver's race. Which means the ZL1 has Supercar level performance. Plus like I said before, the ZL1 has matched the Z06 despite the weight disadvantage.

And the ZL1 has matched and beaten other Supercars. That is Supercar level performance. Is it not?

You mean 11.2. And I agree ZL1 is a super car. But its just not as fast as a Z06. Thems the facts. And it hasnt matched the Z06.
