[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 15996360, member: 68944"] Lets have an honest discussion about the mathematical benefits and setbacks of the s550 chassis vs the alpha platform camaro as assessed by comparing their highest performing renditions. I’ve heard a lot of talk that the zl1 1le is so far beyond anything Ford could do with the gt350r or gt500 but I honestly don’t believe the hype as I haven’t seen much to completely paint a dramatic picture of camaro dominance. When I look into things like geometry and cross section, weight balance, height etc, I don’t see enough measurable and consequential difference to ring any alarm bells in my obviously mustang biased mind. When I compare lap times and cornering speeds of gt350r’s vs zl1’s and zl1 1le’s, I see the tire making YUGE differences, but I don’t see any of the cars running away from one another assuming a similar tire. Same story with the 1LE. I do see the 1LE slaughtering the gtpp1 but then the pp2 brings home the bacon and ties it up again. I’d like to welcome any and all conversation be it fanboy, be it civil, be it mathematically correct. Let’s hear it all and filter out the noise from the data. I think we are all adults, and can handle getting to the truth. And go: [/QUOTE]
