    Am I the only one who thinks this driver missed a lot of opportunities to drop to second gear and pull way harder out of slower corners...

      I thought the same thing.

    • @eedoamitay3341
      @eedoamitay3341 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      I agree; my only idea is that maybe he did it because he 2nd gear maybe had to much torque? I dont know im just guessing

    • @MeltingRubberZ28
      @MeltingRubberZ28 5 ปีที่แล้ว +12

      He was too afraid to beat the 350R time publicly.

    • @JeremyGSU2011
      @JeremyGSU2011 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      The only corner I thought maybe he could have dropped second on was the corner after the back straight. The rest are debatable. You would be in too high an rpm on a lot of those not really giving you good mid throttle control versus staying in the power more smoothly in 3rd. Just my thoughts.

    • @renlacerda2140
      @renlacerda2140 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      This car has too much torque and an incredibly smooth and wide power band. There is no gain in getting lower than 3rd gear on this course.

    If you haven't driven one, you're missing out! It truly is amazing how much car you get for your money... Power, Brakes, Steering, Sound, it's all so good! Local dealer was selling them "Out The Door" at $43,500, talk about bang for your buck.

  • @mikeross6043

    Totally obliterates the M4 lap time by over 6 seconds!

  • @YellowCamaro85
    @YellowCamaro85 4 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I think the 1LE is gen two Aero with wickerbill from the factory. Plus an R compound tire away from running 2:48-2:50 ...and possibly sub 2:48 with the likes of Bill wise behind the wheel.

  • @mattcallaway9248
    @mattcallaway9248 7 ปีที่แล้ว +15

    Idk why they keep on comparing the gt350r to the Camaro 1le. Like only 100 people are getting the r. I want to see what the regular gt350 will do against the new 1le. Then compare the R to the new z28. And for only being 3 second off and cost 20k less and is way easy to get a hold of. The new 1le isn't bad at all. And with that extra 20k you can put a turbo on it will wax any gt350

    • @mikeross6043
      @mikeross6043 7 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      It would beat it for only 44k This car is fucking amazing performance for the money ! That's an achievement

    • @Jimmyxsx
      @Jimmyxsx 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      There is no new Z/28 out yet, it's still under development. By the time the new Z/28 comes out Ford will have the Mach 1 ready too.

    • @mattcallaway9248
      @mattcallaway9248 7 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      A Mach 1 that a little too much of a stretch. The next thing is going to be a gt 500. And if you were up to date. You see that be have spy and seen a z28 on the Nurburgring

    • @Jimmyxsx
      @Jimmyxsx 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      +Matt Callaway Wrong, Ford trademarked the Mach 1 nameplate last year, meaning its coming back. And it will be powered by a 5.2L cross-plane V8. The same engine ford has been displaying inside a GT 5.0L mustang with 580HP n/a.

      it will be an amazing car but its no super car...way too heavy to even play with McLaren baby models like their 570s lol

    That's actually very good compared to the Mustang 350 considering the differences in power, weight, price and the fact that the Mustang is a totally track focused car.

    • @ericstaton6896
      @ericstaton6896 8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      I wish they had a Mustang GT350 to compare with the Camaro SS 1LE instead of the GT350R , that's what everyone has been clamoring for!!!

    • @nicobalvoni1969
      @nicobalvoni1969 8 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      This test is irrelevant man, because a different journalist drives each car. Its the most inaccurate way to compare lap times. 2017 1LE will beat the base GT350 no doubt.

    • @SelectaJ316
      @SelectaJ316 8 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @ALMX5DP
      @ALMX5DP 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe C&D has multiple journalists drive each car. It's just due to the limited footage of one lap that you get that impression. Besides, if it's "most inaccurate" then how are you able to make a generalization that the 1LE will beat a GT350?

    • @Dolby109
      @Dolby109 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      No, Every journalist drove every car (for multiple laps), and they simply take the fastest lap for the comparison.
      In many ways this is the most fair.
      While I agree a pro Pobst might be slightly more accurate these laps are still pretty good measurements of what these cars can do in customers hands.

    • @YellowCamaro85
      @YellowCamaro85 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Stock Goodyear eagle f1/ supercar/ every car in lightning lap comes with factory setup and the cars are setup with manufacturer suggestions for track test testing .extra oil tire pressures and alignment. Every manufacturer that you see represented by cars in these tests are actively involved in these tests.

    • @ytwizzle

      And 10 seconds faster apparently

    • @doc7000
      @doc7000 8 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      the v6 1le can be optioned like the regualer car just with the 1le package as well. it is actually $34,000 for a 1lt 1le though much more once you add options. where as the ss 1le can't be optioned up like a regualer ss camaro. pretty much the only option is the pdr which their car had. so really there is a 10 grand price difference between the two cars.

  • @justmat28
    @justmat28 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    I'm sure if you put it up against the GT350 NOT the R it would be a lot closer and a 10 thousand dollar higher price for the GT350.

    • @chrism.728
      @chrism.728 7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      I agree, GM did a great job with the new Camaro, as far as performance goes. The Shelby GT350/GT350Rs will have better resale value though. Those cars are just special.

      @Dolby109 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      Mopar Man
      There is a website I built a 1LE spec on and it added the 1LE option as $0, but according to Chevy its a $6000 option, and lists it directly as $44,400. This has been stated in many quotes by Chevrolet.
      The standard SS is now $38,400 (with destination). So either you got a crazy discount, a regular SS, or something else is off.

      Mustang GT350R beat it...this is a totally track focused car too...Ford RS is the most impressive time to me...wow
      bottom line, you really can't get a better track car for daily driving than this SS 1LE...It is by far the best bang for the buck! Still think its a little pricey since this is only the 1ss and not the 2ss...
      No matter the car you buy, everyone has to admit, its an awesome time for car nuts...

      Whatever you are seeing is not a 6th gen 1LE. It's either a 5th gen, or is a regular SS with a matte black hood.

      Objectively this is bar none the fastest car you can get for $44k (and the SS is the fastest at $37k).
      Subjectively the SS looks great with the 1LE package, it sounds amazing, has great tech inside, and is an amazing drivers car.
      I'm not sure if your a Mustang or BMW fanboy, but please "Go be butthurt somewhere else".
