There will be significant differences between wheel tq between the Vettes and the Camaros. Trust me.
True, but still won't make it more than 3% more inefficient in my opinion. I still would place my bets on the Camaro being faster down the stretch, and that's ok because the Z has a better interior, handling, mpg, braking, balance and is lighter.
