I actually am not shocked the GT was beat by the ZR1. It's got more power, more torque and they have had the whole lifespan of the C7 to create the perfect Vette. The Vette has always been able to chomp away at supercar performance.
Three points

1)
-------weight------power-----lb/hp
GT----3054 lbs---647 hp----4.72 lb/hp
ZR1---3560 lbs---755 hp----4.71 lb/hp

2) Any Ford fan will tell you torque means nothing...

3) more power, more torque, better power to weight means nothing if it can't be controlled. As shown in 2014
