So, the Z weighs around 200lbs less and runs .1 - .2 seconds quicker in the quarter mile? Makes sense, and everyone should have expected these QM times.

I'm confused in the bolded part of your question. The Z isn't quicker than the SS.


Disappointing to me as I thought it was going to beat a much heavier car in 0-60 and quarter mile times.
