Face it dude, you're fighting a losing battle. And your argument about being underpowered has no leg to stand on. The GTR has been underpowered for years and still kicks everyone's ass in just about every category. The GT350R is designed for the track. And it can't even beat the ZL1 which, according to you, is designed for the track but not a true competitor. You're taking this loss very hard man.
Funny how the Dodge will beat the GT but it can hang with the SS. What can the GT actually beat? Oh, the R/T...
Stop preaching about that flat plane crank nonsense man. There are plenty of engines that were special in their time. Did they get recognized for that? Hey when was the last time a Viper won a comparo based on the fact that it has an 8.4 V10? Tell you what, that engine is a heck of a lot more impressive and "special" than that BS you're praising.
And he meant the best OHV in GM pal...get it right.

How are you not getting it. The GT500 and the ZL1 are direct competitors. Last go around, the ZL1 kicked the GT500's tail. There is not GT500 yet, so the best we can do is pit the supercharged ZL1 against the GT350R. They are both designed for the track, but that doesn't mean they are natural competition. The fact that the GT350R is able to keep up with the ZL1 speaks volumes on how special that GT350R is.
I'm actually not taking the loss personally, you are (the GT350R did win the head to head after-all). You are spouting out how "unspecial" the GT350R is and that it has the "worst flat plane crank". It's as if you have to start making up reasons to justify your disdain for the GT350R in an attempt to make the Camaro look better.
Why don't you go back and re-read all of my posts. With the except of visibility issues, try to find all of the negative things I say against the ZL1 and get back with me. What you will find will reveal exactly who's taking this loss in stride, and who is taking it poorly.
