  1. 1,000 times More...Use to Be 500 cars are Englishtown on Open-track night. Maybe 25 on the road-course...Also these are still POny car/muscle cars (FIRST). Not many Road courses and they Definitely aren't available as Much. Since Englishtown closed down... Highway Roll Racing is the BIG THING.

  2.    Brad, can't have a manual Redeye because the Tremec is rated ( WARRANTIED ) for up to 650 lb-ft. It all Comes down to , Who's paying for the Repairs. Actually, Motor Trend did faster laps in the auto ZL1 than with the Manual, just reliability for Serious / Long Races will always go to the manual. Probably why Chevy used the Auto ZL1 for it's run at the Ring.

  3.    Here's the video it was a 2017 model ZL-1 and the driver let the auto do all the shifts...he didn't use the paddles - ( 7:29.60 ) isn't bad for no aero, on street tires with the auto doing all the shifting. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBmLnLJLQ0o

  4. In ZL-1 1LE Form the 10 spd doesn't help that much... The aero and Suspension stiffness will make it lose. On the track of course it kicks the All Season tire Fat Redeye. Have to pick your battles. Just Highway Racing and Top speed is NO PLACE for a ZL-1.

  5.  @AbdulE36  ACR Kumhos are only $350/ea. Cup 2s of similar dia. /Width are $573/ea. Trofeo R are $691 / ea. Craziest tires are Cup 2 R at $872 a piece 🤯

  6. It's the tires... All - seasons vs. 2 track cars on street-legal race tires.

  7. Redeye for Highway Racing and top speed, GT Cruising.

  8. True, 2019 it was 90 hp (advertised..Wink, Wink). 2020 it dropped to 80 hp.

  9.  @ThrottleHouse  It's an AMERICAN Brand, Just the same as Germans hate Porsche...when it's Pronounced "Porscha". It's 100% about Respect for the country, brand, model.

  10.  @daftdragoon6086  Yeah for alot less HP the Camaro will Shit on the GT500.

  11. Drag race by definition, means 1/4 mile or 402m for the None informed people. Weight could be easily looked up...this channel has a Shoe string budget... I think they are still counting... 1 Mississippi, 2 Mississippi, 3 Mississppi times. Haven't gotten a spot watch...let alone show any Racelogic or compare-able data instrument.

  12. CAMAROSS 1LE, EASILY SHITS ,ON THE GTPP2 ONTHE TRACK AND FOR LESS MONEY. HELL, MY 82 V6 CAMARO "Easily"OUT HANDLE A FOXBODY 5.0 GT."

  13.  @matrox  Hot Rod did a Manual vs. auto using the SS model and the auto was 2/10th (.19s) quicker than the manual (with a good driver) and 2/10 is a BIG difference in drag racing... If you ever drag raced. In the ZL-1 the difference would be even greater.

  14. Camaro SS 1LE. Runs the 1/4 faster than a Mustang GT w/ PP1 or 2, runs the 1/4 as quickly as a $75k GT350 and kills them both on a road course for less money.

  15. There is No such thing as a NEW Trans-am... atleast Built by the Factory and all of these are OEM/Factory built cars.
    1
  16. Demon was strictly built for drag Racing...The Dodge Viper/ACR was the "Track Model". Even in this video Jason says the Redeye isn't a Track model...just a Sportier Hellcat .
    1
  17. SO TRUE, Also ANYTHING... WITHOUT a 3 PEDAL... IS AN AUTOMATIC (fact). Clostest to be a Manual was E46 M3's... as it was the same trans, and close bolt a shifter in it with so ECU modes.

  18. Like he said this is still a BENZ.

  19. At 6:45, the originals used an Independent Rear Suspension ... NOT a solid axle.

  20. With a Twin Turbo kit :-p

  21. Not this Generation... Unless you Only care about rear view/vision. It kills any of the other 2 in performance for the same price range. No Brand comes close to the ZL-1/ ZL-1 1LE in performance for anywhere near the same Price. Looks are Objectionable as Seen by MOST Muscle car fans thinking the R35 GTR is Fk'in Ugly.

  22. Not really, they are great autobahn cruise, can actual seat more than 2 adults...unlike camaro or mustang. Aslo Has the best Ride of the Hi-Po models. Fyi, Redeye Pulls 0.95Gs , same as a Mustang Bullet, and only just behind a new ,siilar weight / Size... $125k M5. Doodge Never Marketed any Challenger as a Track Model Either. Dodge had the Viper for that , and it did That Better than Any Chevy Or Ford.

  23.  @alexwalter3563  Not a Fanboy , I just tell it like it is. "How does the autobahn have to do with a racetrack?" .... You Said Dodge Only makes cars that are fast in a straight line, High Speed Driving on A Highway , Isn't always a Straight line. As for 0.95Gs , We are talking about it's Handling. " I've hit 2.3Gs cornering in my Camaro." unless You Drive a Trans Am Series You are Talking Out Your Ass ... Video Games Don't Count. Who Likes going fat in a straight line? ... Everyone. How many people Road race on the Street ? .... No One. More people Drag / Highway Race Per Day in the USA than people Road Race on A Track in 6 Months.. The proof is in the Sales #s. Even though the current Challenger is almost 12 yrs Old , It's Still Out selling the Camaro. Yes , Dodge Needs a New Challenger But Dodge Has to wait for FCA to give them a New Platform. People also Love to Forget , That the Challenger Is Alot Bigger Heavier than the Camaro Or Stang... Which is Why I Compared it to the Similar Size / Weight M5. Chevy and Dodge are Both , Going for different Type of Customers. Same with the Charger , Which Is the Best Selling Mid-Size Sedan in the USA.

  24.  @alexwalter3563  Fanboys Only like 1 model or brand , that's Not me. I've owned Camaros , worked for Ford ... But I have No Problem saying what Faults / Problems They have... A Fanboy Doesn't Do That. Your Camaro , Is A Nascar Model ...Or are you Talking about a Lower ARCA Class? Most Nascar Races are Big / Sweeping Turn Left Only Tracks ... Nothing to Brag about Handling , No Real Corners to Speak of. Also , This video is about "Production Street-Legal Models". A RaceOnly Car is IRRELEVANT .... Just like When Chevy Fanboys bring up the Hennessey Exorsist Or Mustang Girls Bring up Cobrajet Drag Cars. Wikipedia ...sounds Like where U are getting Your info.( Like your " 300 lbs..."). Do Some research and You'd What Im Saying Are FACTS. Redeye has a Curb Weight of 4,514lbs. The ZL-1 1LE is Only 3,842 lbs. , That's 672 lb. Difference.
    1
  25.  @alexwalter3563  What are you smoking?? No current Camaro model is anywhere near 4,500lbs. Watch the video again .... These Are the ONLY RELLAVENT models... what I Said Is 100% accurate. " mine is Stock it's Not a racecar" , LMFAO. Last Post You said you drove a Nascar ... Now it's a Stock Camaro that pulls 2.3 Lateral Gs in the Corners ... You are FULL OF SHIT and just making yourself Look More Stupid with EVERY POST. This ZL-1 1LE has the Most Downforce And Highest Lateral Gs.... Ever in Stock Camaro , and it ONLY PullS 1.18 Lateral Gs ona Skid Pad.

  26.  @alexwalter3563  You can Easily Verify My #'s on any Reputable Car Magazine, I got this info. from Car & Driver... and they Weigh the cars when they get them (with Fluids). So I am Correct and NO Street camaro will ever get to 2.3Gs on Street tires in stock trim. No Street car...even with 1 ton of downforce, Street Legal tires in stock trim pulls over 1.5 G's in a TURN...(FACT). FYI, I Like the Zl-1 /ZL-1 1LE and the SS 1LE... Like I said I've owned Camaro's... But I don't make up stuff... Like you FAN-GIRL. https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a15082238/2018-chevrolet-camaro-zl1-1le-test-review/ https://www.caranddriver.com/reviews/a22666271/2019-dodge-challenger-srt-hellcat-redeye-first-drive/ CHallenger has been in 2nd place in sales for a few years now... It actually had 1st place for a few month about 2 years ago. https://www.motorauthority.com/news/1120741_dodge-challenger-outsells-camaro-in-2018-but-mustang-still-king https://www.tflcar.com/2019/10/the-dodge-challenger-just-outsold-the-ford-mustang-and-chevy-camaro-last-quarter/

  27. The Challenger was designed and still uses Mercedes parts.... so it's not a Fiat until it's redesigned... Only Non-car guys say that.

  32.  @williamjordan5554  You are FULL of JOKES and have your head UP your own ASS!, LMFAO. Only the Mustang GT has been around for the last 20yrs, (Only Fast Fords... have been limited production models, GOOGLE IT) and there isn't even a GT500 in this Video. The GT is what ANYONE that is talking about Mustangs is referring too when this video was released. Top Gear When the stig wasn't driving, and fifth gear without Tiff Needell, ALL Grand touter are a FUCKING JOKE of a car testing channel. It's as stupid as CAR & DRIVER making reviews with "ESTIMATED" performance numbers. Not to mention their Yearly VIR lap tests aren't done by a professional..like ALL their Videos here. This and all the rest just show the lack of driver skill... NOT what the car can do. ONLY Motor trend had Professionals testing the same cars on the same road/tracks over and over...but they have Their HEAD FAR UP THEIR OWN ASS/ are GREEDY POS'S and don't post anymore.

  33. Lol, obviously you don't know much about cars.

  34. diference between the gt500 and redeye is Less than the zl1 and gt500?? What drugs are you on? If the Gt500 Had A Supercharged Ohv 6.2 It would Be A Carbon Copy Of the ZL1. (just Fatter)The Redeye The Complete Opposite.

  35. You get 155hp more for less money.

  36. On the Track were it was designed to be...it did.

  37.  @rus19297  I believe everyone Deserves the Option, the Viper didn't sell well because it was Only Manual. Dodge Demons / Redeyes , Don't have a Manual Rated/Warranted for the Torque.

  38. The camber must be because he street drives it... AKA save the wear on the tires. As for the rack of the car... Low in the front/high in the back... that is standard to control air turbulence underneath the car.

  39. Same car just with a different front fascia. No matter what the mustang would still lose. It gained weight while the camaro lost 200 lbs. Not to mention the mustang is $3,000 More as tested.

  40. It's the current models....thats why.

  41. ALL were automatics.

  42. And in a Highway Race the Redeye says, See you later Slow poke.

  43. It's Not in Production.

  44. I would have to switch it over to E85.... Because I to run on Alcohol, LOL.🤣🤪

  45. The Manual did slow it down, But the ZL1 1LE has Street legal track tires that are ALOT stickier than the POS tires on the Challenger. Not to mention the Redeye is 700+/-lbs. Heavier. With the auto the Zl1 1LE would win the drag 1/4 mile from a stop but lose on the highway (from a roll and to high speeds 125+). The Redeye is better handling with the Wide Body option... but only an Idiot would call it a Track version. New Challengers excluding the Demon, have Always been GT (Grand tourer) cars made to carry up to 5 "Comfortably"... No matter what chevy/ford says they can't. Camasro ZL-1 automatic is currently the best balance of drag/track of the ponycars. The ZL-1 1LE is the current KING of Track models... Chevy is making even the Shelby GT350R look Pathetic.

  46. It's about the feel, the sound and having 3 other stripers in the car!

  47. They historically were in the middle with the Gt500 (good at both, best at NONE). It looks like they are going after the ZL-1 1LE with the Next GT500 (wings, DOT track tires, track suspension, etc).
    1
  48. Redeye Is Only available in an automatic as TREMEC Doesn't make a Manual that is rated(warrantied) for the Redeye's torque output.

  49. Not on the race track and Randy is the Best in the USA... Hold Many track records... More than the OLD STIG.

  50. You know was slower? Mustang has always been a bitches car?? 1965 was called the secieretes car.. It's Still the#1 sports Car bought by Women.
