New GT350 or New 2015 Z28?

[ON D BIT]

what about a 17 Zl1 which outperforms the 350 in every category?

Source?

It would be interesting new zl1 and 15 z28 on the same tire, who wins?

 

[ZYBORG]

Source?

He probably gets his info from your guy.

 

[ON D BIT]

Most people should know who my guy is. I doubt they are the same.

The ZL1 is a track car for people who want to say they have a track car. Kinda like Planet Fitness is a gym for people who want to say they work out.

True but unless you're getting an R there is nothing better for the price range.

In other news I threw this statement up to Randy Pobst on Facebook.

My wife has a Camaro. I don't like the visibility or the overall way I fit in that car. The 350 seems to be much more comfortable. My wife loves her Camaro, though.

pretty much.

and i'd also like to say that the 3 second difference between the 350 and 350R is most likely 80% because of the tires 10% because of the lighter weight and 10% because of the aero. tires make a huge difference and cup 2's are nearly slicks

Think of it this way. 2 year old brand new z28 are stuck to showroom floors with 15-20k off of msrp and the 2 year old used Ford Raptor is still selling for Msrp prices. :dw:

GM did a great job on the Z/28 and it's bad ass on track. The DSSV dampers are the real deal and keep the Z well composed at the limits. But the Z is really only good on track and most won't like it driving around town. If you're buying a track day car then the Z should be considered. If you're buying an all around car the GT350's in any configuration are better.

Regarding track times the best way to test them would be to have the same tires on all three cars. Put the same sticky tires on all three cars and it will end like this: GT350R>GT350 TP>Z/28.

What was his time with the R on stock and Trofeo's at Sears?

I went with the PSC2's for my first set to see what they are like and to see how long they last. From my first two days on them they aren't going to last long. I have MM CC plates with -1.8 degrees camber.

Thanks. I think Anderson ran a 52 with a stock 15 mustang gt tp. Last year owners with the 991 GT3 and c7z06 were running 59 and 58 respectively. Anderson is a hell of a driver.

It be interesting to compare Amdersons time in his R to race wife in her 488 GT3.

The Trefeo R is faster than the PSC2 so put the Trefeo R's on all three cars and it will end like this: GT350R>GT350 TP>Z/28. Darrell Anderson owner of AV8 put the Trefeo R's on his GT350R and was two seconds a lap faster than with the PSC2's around Sonoma Raceway.

There are no bad choices by the sound of it.

Great time to be a car guy!

I retract what I said about Darrell Anderson and his lap times. I contacted him and he did not confirm what I was told nor did he have any lap times in his R at Sonoma. Not sure why I was told that but it was incorrect.
