If the ZL1 had 750 HP, it would also have over 700 lb-ft.

It's already over 400 lbs lighter than the GT500.

Assuming A10 ZL1 (non-1LE) and GT500 without big rear wing, same tires (eg. both on PSC2--more grip hot than GY SC3), why would a lighter car with equal HP and maybe 100 lb-ft more TQ still be slower than the GT500?
