PP2 was 1+ seconds faster around the track than an M2 Competition.
Driver said the PP2 felt more planted, while the chassis of the SLE felt stiffer.
Steering feel was better in the SLE.
Neither had any body roll.
PP2 did not overheat after 4 hot laps (with the first of 4 being a "fairly hot" warm up lap). He said the tranny and diff. temperatures were fine.
Driver said if he were going to chose one to race on the track again, it would be the PP2 even though it was slower around the track, he said it was more fun than the SLE.

Good stuff. Good times to be a Pony car owner. Thanks for posting.
With the insane performance these cars offer, is it even fair to call them Pony cars anymore? They have come so far!
