Looks like Black Boss has encountered a ZL1 on track and not a Z/28 but it's still a great video. ;D
First let me say I'm glad to see one out there being used as it was meant. This is the first head to head I've seen and it's clear on the outcome this time. I'm posting this not to say anything bad about the Z/28 and I'm actually quite impressed with the car. But it's still going to be down to the driver. Nice driving Nick!
Also no LS lap time yet. I'm curious to see how much faster it is than a ZL1 and 13/14 GT500.

For reference I'm including performance specs from the same magazine. Note 0-60 and 1/4 times are nearly identical. So no Z is going to pull you down the straight unless he has a higher exit speed.
