If the Camaro wins, it will be "Randy sandbagged!", "the tire pressure was wrong!", "somebody in the pits farted and created a headwind for the Mustang"...
The truth is we've seen enough to know the cars are roughly equivalent in performance, except the GT500 can pull away in a straight line if it can put the power down. That's what you get for an extra $25-50k.
I would like to see a ZL1 v. GT500 base comparison that includes street, strip and road course, since the big excuse regarding the 1LE is always the "harsh suspension".
If the GT500 had the same equipment, and the same bottom line cost as a ZL1, I'd certainly consider it (once the durability is proven), but for my money I'm quite happy with our ZL1.

This is very well said indeed.
I have to admit I am surprised the CFTP isn't faster than it is, and that is solely based on its astronomical asking price.
The base model really is where its at. Seems to be able to justify its price tag, where the CFTP just doesn't provide much reason to purchase it(based on testing so far).
