I wasn't talking about the GT350, I was talking about the SS and the GTPP.

How can you compare a tire upgrade to a horsepower upgrade? You aren't making any sense.

Tires are consumables. Test vehicles as stock, yes....but test them with the same damn tires so we can really see what the chassis can do. Most folks that care about track times are going to upgrade their tires the first chance they get. Hell, motortrend has already shown the willingness to upgrade tires when they compared the ecoboost mustang and camaro to level the playing field. Why not do this with ALL comparisons.

Before you start spewing more hate, keep in mind this would likely be advantageous for the Camaro when comparing it against the GT350. I really don't care.
