The Shelby is faster down the drag strip due to it being a lighter car BUT other than that the ZL1 seems like the better car.

Don't get me wrong. I love camaro's, but in what way is it better car?
Power Output? GT500
Weight? GT500
Acceleration? GT500
Fuel Economy? GT500
Forged Internals? GT500
Transmission? ZL1
Handling? ZL1
(This is based on the review posted. No track times to confirm and transmission feel is subjective).
Even if you can make an argument that the ZL1 has better cooling for track use, then it's still a toss up on what's important to you. Do you visit the drag strip more than the track? Do you want the most fuel economy you can get? Is reaching 200 mph important to you? Do you want the extra strength of a forged engine? The GT500 isn't a bad handling car either. Why is an advantage in handling make something a better car isntead of an advantage in weight, acceleration, top speed, and fuel economy? It's not like the GT500 handles like a brick. It's also an excellent handlng car.
