The 1LE SS is virtually what GM has built with a Z/28 badge for years, except for the power output and the 5th gen car. This idea that the Z/28 was a true track car is ridiculous. It was a race-oriented car, with upgraded brakes and wheels. It had nothing special about it that would label it as some "race car".

The Z/28 had less power because Trans Am limited displacement. It wasn’t a decision at Chevy to make the Z/28 produce less power. The Z/28 was built to meet Trans Am racing specification. If that isn’t a race car, I don’t know what is.
