They said the ZL-1 deviates by .2 sec and obviously they printed the fastest time. Am I doing the math correct when I say 1:39:18 + .2 is 1:39.38? Still slower than the third lap of the GT500. Even if you add a tenth each lap to the ZL-1's three laps and then add up the GT500's, the Shelby is more than half a second ahead. Even with brake fade. Does MT know how to do math?
Edit: Here is my math so correct me if I'm wrong.
Lap 1
1:38:69 - 1:39:18 = GT500 ahead by .49
Lap 2
1:39:03 - 1:39:28 = GT500 ahead by .25 (.74 cumulative)
Lap 3
1:39:30 - 1:39:38 = GT500 ahead by .08 (.82 cumulative)
I think you mis-read what he said.
" By the third lap, the Mustang was behind the Camaro, turning a 1:39.30. The ZL1, meanwhile, never deviated by more than two-tenths of a second."
In another words......from the 1st lap to the 3rd lap, the Camaro lost only .2 total .....not .2 per lap.
