What would you pick and why? They show photos of the 350's on track but don't list the track or any specific times. I'd like to see Randy Pobst compare both 350's to the '16 Z28.
"Despite the Z/28's massive torque advantage, it's no quicker than the GT350R. They're pretty close to even—which is exactly what you'd expect given their similar weight-to-power ratios." http://www.motortrend.com/features/perform...and-camaro-z28/ |

I really like the GT350R aesthetically, and a screaming, high winding, flat plane crank V-8 is a thing to behold (hopefully, it has a proper TR6060 behind it instead of that problematic China junkbox).
But a better (and more fair) comparison would be the LIGHTER 6th gen Z28 and the potent Stang, IF and when GM ever releases it, and IF it is NA instead of the boosted stuff they only seem to do lately. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) EDIT: I read the R&T article on this car, and it stated that they are using a TR3160, 6 speed Tremec. (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/gr_confused.gif) Is this just an old 3150 with updated synchros/stronger internals, and with an extra cog added on, or a whole new gearbox?? It does save ~25 lbs. over a TR6060, or Magnum. This post has been edited by dailydriver: Nov 2 2015, 12:39 AM |
