i do think its a hand full having driven the c5 and c6 Z's will all traction stuff off they are a hand full and are notorious spinning. One of my old projects was the same weight as a Z and more power on a 295s was a lil bit easier to toss in the corners and more predictable, she was not a factory stock car either.

But the truth is the Z06 is not 505 rwhp! 505 suggested BHP, its more like around 425-450 ish compared to a GT500 that's 662BHP and around 600 at the tire with very lil over steer.. Then again this is not about a Z06 and its 20k tag difference its about the Zl1 and GT500...

For me i love both of them. If i had it to spend i would get both. Or since camaro seems to always need back up from the vette to try to win these arguments i would get all 3! don't You guys with the Z's think yall should be more concerned with the new vipers then mustangs?
