ZL1 beats new GT500

Cmike2780 · 06-25-2012, 11:20 AM

What size are the stock tires?

m4a1mustang · 06-25-2012, 11:21 AM

265 front 285 rear. ZL1 is 285/305 I believe.

Stock, my 5.0 w/ Brembo package came with 255 square. I run 275 square now.

If I was going GM its vette or nothing period unless daily driver lol as for the GT500 I like how its sounds better than the maro

Here's the MT comparison. They also have the ZL1 winning, but just barely. They were complaining about brake fade in the GT500 and this was likely the reason that led to the ZL1 being the winner.

Brake fade/failure can really hurt a performance car's reputation

But it's a little more acceptable when you're actually going fast.

It's going to be fun to see what the next Camaro and Mustang platforms turn out like.

Don't forget "soul and sophistication". That helps a lot coming out of turn 3 in Sebring.
