and no rustang lol.. thought those s550's were the dogs?
see if a gt500 can get in the top 30 this year. i doubt it though..the chassis is junk on those things.
my work mate is an audi fanboy..keeps telling me how fast his audi is lol..i sent him that link and said amazing i cant see one audi in that list but 5 chevys. said to him a zl1 will beat any audi made..he's gone very quiet.
respect to chevy for creating us some amazing cars. the zl1 is a muscle car aswell not a sports car.. AMAZING

Too fat and heavy for the track? Or it will probably blow its engine like its predecessor, the GT350?

I mean it's actually #29, but still an impressive feat when looking at the other cars +- 5 spots next to it.

In reality, it should be much higher up on the list; a lot of those cars on top aren't really what you would consider traditional mass produced "production" cars. Additionally, the same cars are repeated multiple times on that list just in different "specs," lowering zl1's place on the list. Like others have said, purpose built racecars. This car really is a masterpiece of engineering. I would love to see an all-out track focused ZL1LE built to the level that some of those "spec" cars ahead of it are. Would shock a lot of people.

The only real repeats are the 3 GT2 RS, but those packages are no different than the 1LE package on top of the ZL1 (except I think the Weissach package costs as much as an entire ZL1). And you can register both the Radical and the Gumpert in CA so they are still technically street legal, production cars.

When we say ZL1 here are we talking the 1LE package?

Nissan GT-R fanboys look at that list and weep.
the camaro zl1 is a faster race car than that hideous looking thing.
my friend is an audi fanboy..he still hasn't answered back why no audi makes that list?
he has been trying to tell me for weeks how much faster audis are than any other cars.

wonder if a gt500 will make that list this year?

23rd place? Pft sounds like some participation ribbon mamby pamby fluff to me. /trollinglife


All kidding aside, it's actually no small feat, especially if you were to list the MSRP alongside those times (and make any proper inflation adjustments).

I think the topspeed hurt most of the zl1s time and wasn't there a better driver available? The porche got to 192 mph on the long stretch that when watching the video seemed like it took forever for the zl1 to get to the finishing turns just before the finish line.

did they ever get the a10 back on a non rainy day?

They actually got a better time during that event but couldn’t use it officially for what ever reason. They have it recorded, I believe it was 2 or 3 seconds faster. I don’t really know the details but remember reading about it.
