Yeah, and even weirder that people think 650 HP isn't enough power and they're compelled to modify the hell out of it. Ive seen lots of comments about how the car is too slow, disappointing power, etc.

Having driven my stock ZLE on several tracks now over the last 3 months, it's very clear to me the only thing holding this car back is me, my driving skill level. With a great driver this car bone-stock can beat almost anything out there short of a hypercar, or at least stay within 1-2 seconds. I had the opportunity to let Jeff Cook (YouTube: Turn in Track Out) drive my car at Buttonwillow and Laguna Seca, and if you went for a few laps with him you would never say the car was too slow or disappointing. He did a 1:53 at Buttonwillow CW13 in traffic, driving 8/10s or less.
