Interesting that it smokes it. ZL1 A6's hold the top 6 fastest stock times on Camaro5 vs their manual counterparts. The manual M5 and manual ZL1 seem pretty even from reviews, yet no one seems to test the automatic ZL1 anywhere. Have you lined them up with equal drivers? What were ET's and traps respectively?
