2019 SS 1LE vs 2019 BMW M2 Competition
First time at this track and 2nd track day in 1LE.
BMW M2 Comp chase begins at min (4:30) followed by a Mustang at min (8:00) and I close in at min (10:17). |

Cool video!
With all the Camaro Track options I think the SS 1LE is the best Camaro choice. It is a mostly confortable driver and is not crazy with power. But really lets you explore your limits at a less than professional level. If you go all 9/10ths in a ZL1 or ZLE you better KNOW what you are doing. And the slower and lighter SS will not chew up as much cash per lap.

Agreed. The threshold between awesomeness and disaster is thinner on the Zs. GM does a great job of reining in these cars even with high HP. But it seems like the ZL1 loves to dance right on the line a little more. I'm usually impressed, exhilarated, and scared as hell all at the same time.

But, if just using it as a street car and occasional hooning the M2 Comp would be a blast I think. |

R&T already did a H2H of the Camaro SS1LE VS the BMW M2 Comp and the best performance was by the SS1LE. Also MT did one of the base Camaro SS Vs the BMW M4, and the SS was the winner. The great "Alpha platform", combined with the LT1 V8 are a great combination for the track.
