I agree. As just a daily driver myself with mine I hardly use mine on my SS now like they should be used and almost feel guilty

They are SOLID, trust me!

I've only used them what I'd consider really hard once since buying the car (car accident happened right in front of me and my fellow Camaro owner with a Synergy green one and we both had to almost lock up on the freeway to avoid debris and cars going everywhere) and you'd be surprised at the hidden power in these damn Brembo's! First car having them and they're amazing when duty calls them to be!

The 2011 GT500 handles right their with the Grand Sport Vette. And stops in only 3 feet more than the ZR1.

Put some stickies on both cars and see which one is quicker.

This race comes down to traction and the GT500 clearly is at a deficit.

I sure hope at least Evan Smith will run the GT500 vs the Z28(when it comes out). I know he will put some stickier tires on the cars and run them.

the camaro test car is running the same tires as the GT500 :/

Meh......the GT500 still looks better. However an auto with paddles will definately cover up some driver error. With a manual driver skill definately hurts or helps the times.

Nice comparo of those two beasts.

The Grand Sport Vette stomps the GT500 in handling.

I'll give credit where it's due: http://usnews.rankingsandreviews.com...Breaks-Record/

I had no idea there was such a dramatic improvement between 2010 and 2011 in braking and handling. I ran with a few on road courses (couldn't have been any newer than 2010) and they were SUPER slow (OK, I was driving a Z06, but I expected more - it wasn't even fair you know?). My buddy's CTS-V on the other hand seriously closes the gap.

Mustangs that stop and turn? Who'da thunk it??? Man, that's 21st century style!!
