Really liking your enthusiasm. But the fact that there is so much talk about this car across all forums can only be good for us. What will the next GT500 be? and then the ZL1? I can imagine they'll have something wider than the 275's on my SS
But seriously don't throat punch me man

Leno is monotone in all those videos, I don't how on earth anyone ever found that guy funny. Would love his car collection though.

I have never seen triple digit IAT on the street in my GTO @ 10psi with a 10yr old M112 and stock air filter.

Yeah,...all you have to do is watch the videos. Like this one for instance.
The car just takes off. (REMEMBER,....stock. No mods here.)

Ole jay kept going on about how it handle great for a large car comparing it to the 250 hp Mercedes he once drove..... I would go out on a limb and say i think jay expected more from the kitty...... so being the zl1 is much lighter....i wouldn't count it out all together as still being the top contender in the muscle car world now i wish i could drive the zl1 lol
what?
