Very cool video, great job Mark. The 1LE camaro is coming soon, has all the suspension goodies the z has with the exception of the magnetic shock system. Awesome daily driver. Its cool making the comparisons, the z is a 4000 lb car :wow: , I think it did phenominal against Marks beast. Really enjoyed that :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Thanks guys. I knew the GM Camaro guys would say I was sand bagging if I did not set a good lap time in the ZL-1. The Camaro guys told me the Automobile Mag lap times so I knew the bogie. Once I sorted out the ZL-1's no lift shift I was able just keep the gas pinned and row the gears. The ZL-1 is a great track car. The guys shooting the video drove the car over from Detroit then drove it back home at the end of the day.

I did my personal best in Red Devil at Gingerman to beat it. I would also like to thank, Jason (The new owner of Red Devil) to allow me to take it the track and beat on it. I gave him a ride in "his" car and he was blow away. We just beat on both cars then put them away.

It was a great day.

Mark

Good stuff Mark!

Speaks volumes for both cars.

Wow, that is impressive. I assume those lap times were on the long course? I just looked back at last years MotorState Challenge time(this year was on the short course) and Danny Popp's best time in the Vette was 1.40.5. A 1.39.5 is killer. The 1.42.x in the ZL1 would have been good for the second best lap time at the 2011 MotorState Challenge. Not bad for a bone stock car with a 100k powertrain warranty.

Congratulations Mark on setting incredible times in both cars. You definitley were pushing yourself hard and made this a very fair challenge. Nice job! :D

A 67... but I'm still hoping Mark will do a 70-73 one day soon! :yes:

That was pure awesomeness at it's best. Thanks Mark and Hot Rod for the entertainment :thumbsup:
