Also fascinating was their 0-60 time; which is arguably just as good as the zl1's since no one has gotten gm's claim of 4.0 for the manual. This gt500 did 4.1 and a 12.4@117.
Caranddriver did get 4.1 as well for the zl1 while recording a slightly faster 12.3@119. I won't do the maths up for the gtr comparison by the mag that only got a 13.1@113 for a zl1 because those tests weren't optimal.
Here's a pic of the gt500 performance
Cool to note: both this gt500 and zl1 are rated at 1g, car and driver recorded .98 for the zl1 and 1.0 for the 2011. But they said the surface was a little dusty and that really showed in the braking distance which faded considerably as stops continued.
The 2011 gt500 did 151ft 60-0 in that test while the zl1 did 163 if my memories right but again, dusty track even though it was a good enough surface to essentially match gm's 0-60 data
