Welcome to a head-to-head, supercharged showdown at Maple Grove Raceway!
This video captures the ultimate battle in American muscle: the Chevrolet Camaro ZL1 vs. the Shelby GT500. This isn't your typical drag race with a standing start; it's a pure test of horsepower and top-end pull, beginning with a 65mph rolling start over the 1/3 mile as part of a Race Motive event.
Here's a breakdown of the two heavyweight contenders:
-
Chevrolet Camaro ZL1: Powered by a supercharged 6.2-liter LT4 V8, this beast delivers a ferocious 650 horsepower and 650 lb-ft of torque. With its precision engineering and aggressive aerodynamics, the ZL1 is built to dominate on both the street and the track.
-
Shelby GT500: Ford's ultimate answer to the Camaro, the GT500 boasts a supercharged 5.2-liter "Predator" V8 that screams with a colossal 760 horsepower and 625 lb-ft of torque. Its lightning-fast dual-clutch transmission ensures every ounce of power is put to the ground.
With the launch eliminated, this race is a thrilling demonstration of who has the better powerband and gearing from a high speed. Will the ZL1's refined power delivery make up for the horsepower deficit, or will the GT500's raw, supercharged fury be too much to handle?
