I'm thinkin both are better suited for the 1/4 than anything else. which would be why Chevy decided at the last minute to offer the auto w/tapshift on it.. the 1le is the track star among these, I'm assuming. rivaling the boss302... also you can get the shelby for a good $5k UNDER msrp. as opposed to the $5k over for the zl1.
I don't know that I would call the ZL1 a "track car" but it is better on the track than a lot of cars that are marketed as "track cars". Like you, the 1LE is closer to what I would consider the Camaro's "track car" model. I wish they had taken things a little farther though.
