Wow.

I'm also a member a member at Camaro5, and an owner of a new Camaro, and hopefully soon a new 370, two completely different cars to be sure for two completey different types of driving.. rest assured, we are not all a bunch of redneck, tralerpark dwelling idiots.... lol.

As far as 1000hp Z's ? Don't forget the old adage... there is not substitue for displacement. Meaning, it is going to be easier/cheaper out of that LS3 V8 than the 3.7L in the Z. Not talking trash, just facts. I love both cars. Yes, the Camaro is a heavyweight, but it has the HP to help overcome that, and it can easily be moded, intake and exhaust were out before the car was, plus there are already plenty of superchargers available.

I don't doubt that a Z will take a Camaro on a road course, that is where the Z is at home, but then I would expect the Camaro to kick butt at the drag strip even though the test times have come up close, all it is going to take is an intake and exhaust change to give a much bigger HP change for my LS3 than I would get for my Z... just my .02
