Why should it have to be discredited when we see this one hanging wirh a GT on track? I go off the run what ya brung mantra. If the driver isn't as good, that's his fault. $500,000 doesn't mean you automatically obliterate everything? That's obvious here.

The ZL1 is 900lbs heavier than the the GT and has the same horsepower.
I'm sorry, these two cars are not "close"
Go watch @ 3.14 when the GT pulls out of the turn onto the straight and watch how fast it pulls buss-lengths on the ZL1.
This isn't discrediting to the ZL1, these are two different leagues of vehicles. With the power to weight ratio of the GT, it should be able to run low 10 1/4 miles at north of 140mph....and will easily out corner the ZL1.
