Both are great cars but this is very appreciable as now american cars have disproven the notion of being non world class caliber competitors.

Road atlanta is a balance meets power track. I love it on Forza. That all said it does require a surprising amount of suspension and braking because it corks hard after each exaggerated straight into s curves and 90 degree bends.

All told, the gt500 must handle and stop very well because it's not simply a speed course. Check out this photo of the track for an idea.



Even the straight sections become very dangerous because of high speed kinks and sweepers as well as 70-90 degree turns there after.

If the gt500 is lapping as fast or faster than a zl1 at this track, this car is very capable. Hats off to chevy and ford for amazing accomplishments as these 38-4100# cars are truly world beaters.
