The 1le slightly edged the get in one test and was beaten in another.

The z28 isn't even a z28 and the gt350 was restricted too much because it was "unfair" how superior it is.

Lol and the out-loud dreaming going on.
Careful about that track run up in Michigan. Just because the GTPP beat the holy grail of the 1LE, it will be discounted for any number of reasons.

These are the same set of Camaro lovers that complained about the 6G SS and the 120' 60-0 brake numbers and the run flats. They said put on a good tire and that number will drop and be more representative. Funny, the same tire issue was brought up about the GTPP vs. 1LE but those Camaro fans yelled foul.

I was at the cota race. Had a chance to talk to a few teams in the paddocks. They took a lot of tire away from the gt350. Something like 20mm. In other words...that's why the gt350 got the pole but started losing as the race went on. Tire wear plain and simple. They handicapped that car big time. Sad really, as when the car was running same tires it wasn't even close.

I spoke with a few teams and they confirmed the tires for the gt350 being smaller. With all the heat tires made the difference in this race. Z28 got the win on a risky maneuver of only taking two tires.

Keep posting your love for the ugly ass Camaro on a dedicated 6TH Gen Mustang board yet you own one. That shit is fucking hilarious.

You are an owner and only post in the Camaro threads. How does that even make sense?? I still call bullshit on you owning one.
It really pisses you off that I own a s550, doesn't it? FYI, I actually own 2 Mustangs.

Dont be mad. Just because I own the car doesn't mean I am compelled to be a mindless fanboy. I call a spade a spade, and its obvious which company is making the better performing vehicle.

LOL

You're basis is based off the internet, us day to day guys KNOW...it ain't even close...

GM wins the interweb and magazines, we win the real life stuff any average Joe can participate it in.....It's and absolute blow out, but....stay behind that cell, pad or whatever.... just terrible

Don't they all run the same size tires and wheels?

Oh is that how it works? I guess because i street race as well as race at the strip makes me a moron. Funny last time i checked my iq was 141 and belonging to mensa meant i was among the percentile for genius.:confused:

If you do in fact have an IQ of 141 and you are in fact a member of Mensa, then you are even more of a moron for street racing than us "average morons" because you, of all people, should know the dangers of street racing.

However, I don't believe either of your claims about your intelligence. Your diction, punctuation, tone, and life choices do not reflect those of a "genius".

It would be interesting to that in writing or at least a picture. But it is interesting IIRC the announcers said Mulitmatic knew why the car was slowing, it wasn't initially and issue of strategy it was pace however they wouldn't comment.

Mulitmatic made another comment about being the heaviest car out there and the heat was going to be a factor in tires.

It is to bad the rumbum car lost a serpentine belt, that's a bitch ass "engine failure" to loose to, though far from a true engine failure.

Oh, I forgot because i have a high iq i have to be a straight edge stick in the mud. Glad to know that i always have to type up perfectly manicured responses. also stop adding tone to text, its rather inaccurate, especially for forums. Im glad you can also assume based on my life choices what dictates a genius and what doesnt. You assume and stereo type way too much. Nice social skills.:lol:

I think I joined the wrong forum, this place is for perfect, flawless narcissist's!

HO LE FUK!

I still find it funny the VAST majority of car people didn't really care about road racing, but ever since GM came out with the ZL1......the sheep have followed. Everyone is some big time expert on road racing these days

Oh BTW your car sucks because it lost to this car in a magazine review, end rant
