What really blows my mind is the discussion surrounding the Z06 vs Hellcat...is it really believable that 57 hp (or 8%) more is enough to make up for a 1000lb disadvantage?
So the ZL1 is going to come in with a curb weight of just under 3500 lbs? Not from what I've read or heard but maybe you have some inside info? Isn't that close to C7Z weight? Or are you saying the HC weighs in at 4850? Which it does not but Motor Trend says the '17 ZL1 comes in at 3850.

The ZL1 will no doubt be a monster and will manhandle the HC on a road course. But in the real world it will not be a cakewalk for the beloved ZL1 against a HC.

Unless the HC driver simply doesn't know how to drive.
