i'm wondering if that car manages to instill a false sense of confidence in its drivers?
I can't really comment on the newest iteration of the gt500, but I have driven an 08 gt500 at mid-ohio both stock and modded and stock it tended to understeer a bit. Perhaps the zl1 is more oversteer bias in stock form? That would be surprising to me though as slight understeer is typically easier to control for average drivers than oversteer.
