From 30 the ZLE jumps out about 2 or 3 car lengths, manages to hold that for a while but as speeds increase the ZL1 is visibly catching up quickly. From 50 MPH it's just which driver hits the shifts and again if you are ahead at 145 or so the ZL1 is obviously pulling harder. Just my experience with roll racing the ZLE, I am a pretty good shoe with a stick. There is no doubt in my mind at 145 plus the ZL1 is going to embarrass a ZLE on the open road. Of course the ZLE is going to embarrass the ZL1 on a road course given equal drivers. The cars have two very different purposes. Why I let off at 150. No sense in pushing the cars that much in a roll race when the outcome is obvious. Just needlessly endangering all involved after that speed.
