ZL1 barely edged out the Boss on a road course? 2.45 seconds is not barely edging it out, it's complete decimation. That's a healthy margin. Barely edging it out would be 1/6th of that time. I'm a Mustang owner, and even I can see that the ZL1 is faster on a road course. I think Boss would be a more visceral experience, and it would probably be the one I would chose. When I do road racing, I treat it just like when I drag race, which is just racing against my own time, because there are always better and faster drivers and cars out there. My first road course I did here in Phoenix at Firebird Main a long time ago, I got passed by a guy running an almost bone stock Miata with half the power my car at the time had. He passed me like I was in coasting in neutral. I followed his line for a couple of laps until he got so far ahead of me I couldn't see his line anymore, and then before the next session I spend a good amount of time talking to the dude and trying to learn as much about the track as I could.
