Watched the vids, really fun to watch the car work that track. The regular Z was an auto & 1LE was a 6spd. Not sure how either one compares on such a course if they were in the same trim.
What was obvious was how the guy in the auto looked like he was making a quick grocery run.
It’s still awesome contemplating my regular ZL1 has the potential to do that.
The fact a 1LE is in the top 25 fastest times & a standard ZL1 is 57’th is quite an accomplishment. That places them both at the upper echelon of performance vehicles.
Another interesting thing I noted was the standard ZL1 posted a higher top speed (according to the readout anyway) of 3mph even though it appeared the 1LE carried a tad more speed through the final corner.
