All the track numbers are just a marketing. Acceleration, thats what really matters.

Huh?

Isn't acceleration (0-60) just another performance metric?! It is much more useful though. I don't think the z06 missed shift but almost did. Betting he was making the 2-3 shift and was in 5th but caught it and switched to 3rd. I personally think the Z06 is more attractive.

ZL1 with A10 is going to be fast and faster from a dig then most M7 Z06 drivers but from a roll a good driver will beat most ZL1s. I doubt the A10 from a dig has a chance against the Z06, you just can't offset the weight difference enough from the transmission.

Love it!

I think both these cars are absolutely beautiful. My dream is to own both, but right now at least I can settle for collecting one at a time. Can't wait to see the A10 versus this same Z06 from 0 through the quarter

Well...you are wrong about track numbers. The Hellcat is only a little faster than the entry camaros on the track & that matters. A LOT!!

I plan to have this ZL1 for track days (with turns) and any Hellcat is welcome to throw in their quarters. You post adds little value in what the ZL1 brings to the table for the $$$.

That's still a missed shift.

Aren't you contradicting yourself?

Drag force increases exponentially... aero all over the z06... bad comparison... another video made by a scamming company...

I don't think so, the Z06 is faster from dig then roll. The Z06 with stage 2/3 has a pretty dramatic amount of aero and is slower accelerating after 115 and up. So the ZL1 with much less aero and in a roll race say from roughly 60-140 against a Z06 has a better chance, plus a roll race has a tendency to negate some weight and tire difference.

It certainly seems to be living up to its hype and reputation. Camaro team did an astounding job!
