[@BARONsProductions]

@@arkarius944 but why do they do that it makes no sense? Wouldn't you wanna claim and market higher figures

[@arkarius944]

@@BARONsProductions you would think so. They probably do it to ensure they are never below that power or to make the cars cheaper to insure over in Europe where more performance costs more money.

[@Etmanning]

@@arkarius944 It also has a lot to do with the powerband, not just the peak numbers. Weight is huge in racing as well, so it's not surprising that the porsche took it.

[@arkarius944]

@@Etmanning More to do with weight and engine placement than powerband. The LT4 is going to have a far broader powerband, anyways. Having the engine in the rear means far better traction, and DCT is faster and with less drivetrain loss. Even still, the ZL1 1LE puts down faster lap times than the 992 Carrera S. And I would expect the ZL1 to start pulling hard if they were to keep going.

As someone who owns a 1LE and a 911 I can say they are very different beasts. The weight disadvantage for the Camaro is hard to ignore and the 911's are underrated power wise. Good runs

[@alvingeroy3242]

The Porsche is just worth it overall to me over the Camaro. it's classy and I love that. The chevy just reminds me of some Blue collar farmer and the Porsche makes me think of Suits and bars. is there faster for the money yes, but running into one on the street will barely happen.

[@wearethetraffic]

@@alvingeroy3242 I guess it all depends on what streets you live in lol. 911's are very common here in the Northeast. That being said, you seem stuck on stereotypes for the cars/owners vs their actual capability. I would also note that for 2021 Porsche built and sold more 911's than GM did of the Camaro. Aprprox 38.5k vs 22K the Camaro is actually more rare if you're seeking that individuality. Either way both are amazing cars and you dont go wrong with either one. I jumped to the new M3 Comp recently and loving it. Funny enough the Caddy CT4V is considered the better handling car by many which shares a chassis with the Camaro

[@alvingeroy3242]

@@wearethetraffic I live on the west coast so it's common to see everything, individuality isn't really a thing any longer lol. Porsche is a good luxury standard to live by in all aspects, and I don't know about statistics but I definitely see more Camaros out in the wild than I do 911s. I will say the Macan is a steal at 60k and the Cayenne is good too. so maybe that fluffs the higher figure by a lot, but as for 911s hell out of 330 million people they only sold 10,000 for the 2021 year and Camaro sold 21,000.. I had a 15 SS camaro for a year, it was cool but then I switched over to a simple yet more expensive 2019 m240i and people from all over would walk up and want to know about it, and we both know it wasn't anything special. I now have a 2022 GR86 because I love JDM and it was the hot new thing out, and you wont believe how many people clap at it or wave ROFL. I'll definitely pull the trigger on a newer 911 in the future, but im busy right now in flight training so it'll be a little while away. Luckily my wife makes 150k a year or I'd have dirt. 🤣🤣🤣

@@alvingeroy3242 Enjoy what you drive and drive what you enjoy. The outfit or location will never make the car feel more or less good for you. The Camaro is an excellent platform in 6th gen form. Loved it... Had a FRS, shitty tires from the factory but handles amazingly well nonetheless. M240 is a fun car, solid platform and handling for sure. Cool cars dont have to be six figures. Lots of great stuff in the $30k to 50K range from the Golf R, new WRX, Mustang GT and Camaro along with the GT86/BRZ and a few others. Good luck with the future endeavors and that 911.

Its that the Porsche blocks are underrated, cars way lighter, and the PDK trans and gearing is about as good as you can get for efficiency. Look at the 911 Turbo (actual turbo model lol), even with extra weight, and awd drag, the car is stupid fast for its rated power. The engines are just underrated and PDK is so well matched and efficient. Go to any shop and just watch, friends buddy owns USP Motors.

[@-matt]

Andrew Kim it’s all about drivetrain losses, the closer the engine is to the wheels it is powering, the less power loss there is. Since the porsche is rear wheel drive and rear mid engine vs the camaro s rear wheel drive front engine, the porche is more efficient

There is something about Porsche. Always it seems one German/Porsche horsepower is equal to two horsepower for any other manufacturer. Being the lucky owner of a 2018 manual GT3, I always had a disdain for them till I bought one to see what the hype was all about and after owning Aston’s, Lamborghinis and Ferrari’s, Porsche’s are at a different level. Even the 458 and 488 I have owned in the past can’t match the feel of my GT3. And it’s not even an RS. That Porsche magic is real. It really does exist. Made me a believer. Lovely video. Very enjoyable. Keep up the good work.

[@mindspinn311]

I know a guy who is a driving instructor and amateur racing driver. He has driven many of those cars. His personal favorite to drive is the Ferrari 458, but he always said the GT3 was objectively the best track weapon. But after he drove the GT3RS he said you can absolutely feel the difference, and apparently the suspension bushings are a big part of that.

6:15 Supercharger vs Turbo... I find it ironic that Porsche’s began experimenting with turbocharged racing cars in the Sixties even though GMC practically invented Turbocharging at the top of Pikes peak when Sandford Moss, head engineer of General Motors, used the thin air at Pike’s summit to test the application of turbochargers on aircraft engines in the early 1900s. Porsche has virtually eliminated turbo lag with small electric motors (prespool technology), which get the turbos spinning before you jump on the throttle.

The fact that a CAMARO can hang with a PORSCHE is a W. My respect for Porsche skyrocketed though wow. I’m not a huge fan of the design but man that thing just GOES.

[@justinrogers8096]

I had a tuned manual na 2019 Mustang GT and my brother had a 2021 auto 911 Carrera 4S. We did 2 roll races from 30mph to 120mph. Believe it or not the Mustang slightly edged out the Carrera. I now have a ZL1 and can tell you it is much faster than the Muatang so I'm having a hard time believing this. My brother now has a GT3 so I'm sure my fate is sealed against that. We haven't got to run them yet.

[@ssokolyk]

You guys at throttle house do an awesome job and love the videos. Your next one should be getting that Porsche Carrera s on a Dyno and see how much power that thing is punching out

[@micronaught]

“Black ice” was used but you didn’t use the Porsche sport response button? Let’s be fair. 😂

[@CheezeCracker]

Isn't black ice a giveaway for a salvage car? Now we know what went wrong. Good catch

[@fredeb67]

To those that know that to get the best from that ZL1, you must shift at higher rpm in manual mode using the paddles. That auto trans shifts to early for max performance.

[@pHixiq]

Yeah Lexus auto does the same at higher gears

[@sitranine8369]

I too was on the toilet when James asked for my support. Can't say I've been more fulfilled in my life.

[@dayalanvelan3070]

Porsche engineering is untouchable. Keep up the awesome videos. Greetings from South Africa

We all know those pine air fresheners added the weight that held the Camaro back

YALL BETTER STOP DISRESPECTING BLACK ICE DAMMIT. he only lost because the black ice adds 60HP per tree and he struggled to put the power down

[@jerodlewis1356]

🤣😂🤣😂

[@Aromatize]

Give credit when credit is due hat's off to the camaro for the effort it put.

[@06364ss]

Best you can do in that ZL1 is remove that Rear Spoiler. To completely "Disable" the traction control you need to press and hold the Traction Control Button for 7 seconds. Doing this will disable traction control and also the stability control. Put the Z in Track Mode and it should give you everything it has with the proper shift points in the trans. On go, let transmission upshift on it's own. When roll racing, (in track mode) hold the downshift paddle 3-4 seconds while driving at the speed required and the transmission will drop to the lowest optimal gear for the speed you're traveling. Or, (in track mode) steady your desired starting speed then briefly stab the accelerator once (3-4 seconds before starting the race) to activate the performance shift..... on go, it's pedal to the floor letting the transmission upshift on its own.

[@jeffa.8976]

The 911 is also so much more aerodynamic, especially with that wing on the Camaro.

[@ashleysambo4104]

The over boost probably take the carrera 4 to 500hp and 600Nm

[@jimsiggy]

Maybe TMI, but I was on the toilet cheering on James.

[@phillyphil1513]

see this is why in many ways i like Throttle Dudes even MORE than the Straight Pipers. these guys do more than just reviews but get into the nitty gritty of PERFORMANCE. but no doubt both are hilarious and entertaining.

When u said the toilet line I lifted my arm off my thigh and liked the video

[@Goatman31]

Love how you guys properly pronounce ZL1

[@jonchicoine]

well, at least the ZL1 is about half the price of the porsche...

[@kwk43]

doesn't come close to Porsche's racing and luxury abilities tho. However for straight lining it, yes - go for the ZL1

[@morepanicboy7120]

Basically every american vs german car

[@jonchicoine]

@@kwk43 you're wrong ... the z1l lays down crazy fast lap times ... dare i say faster than a 911s i think. Don't get me wrong, i love porsche ... i have a 718 Cayman S...

[@robertburton8055]

Yep.... and I know people hate going down the “well if I mod it road”.... but I bet you could get the ZL1 to EASILY stomp the Porsche for less than a grand in mods.

[@jonchicoine]

@@robertburton8055 Every Porsche is sprinkled with a little magic dust or something. The 718 Cayman S has got to be the easiest car for a novice to go fast... it's absolutely incredible. However, the bang for your buck money with the ZL1 is off the charts.... and if you add in the 1LE package im pretty sure it spanks with porsche in a skilled drivers hands.

[@awesomeness369]

Damn bruh, man's calling me out, how'd he know I was on the toilet??? 1:45

[@baronwhosaskin621]

I hate to agree, but that Porsche either walked away or stayed ahead. Good race fellas

[@pkt1213]

All I hear James saying is, "I almost had you."

[@adriansandoval4566]

Almost had me......you never had your car

[@lt1z350]

How about a car closer to the price now? 2019 zr1 if you can go find one that you can play with.

[@Rick2010100]

The price per mile counts - you pay more for the 911, but you also get more for it if you sale it. At the end you are also better of (price per mile) with a 911 as with a Vette.

[@manuelmartineznusn]

Porsche, you simply get what you pay for

[@mikemccleve1330]

Those cars are not “neck and neck all things considered” since the 911 fairly won every time.

[@ansarkash]

Please mention torque in NMs as well in ur videos ! Thanks

[@Phobos150]

This! So much pls.

[@v80camaro54]

on the german autobahn, the ZL1 does 100-200 km/h in 6,9 seconds. you would need a 911 turbo S to match that.

[@ryryy1980]

Almost every respectable test/race I've seen vs these two and the camaro wins. Especially in a roll race. Something fishy about this video...

[@ryryy1980]

Please forward to 4:98 and and tell me he does lift of throttle or the transmission is malfunctioning. I'm curious as to what I heard...

[@losthero389]

Yo I was dying when he said...all I'm hearing is I lost, I lost, I lost LMAO 🤣 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@jakeballard7999]

$115 vs $70K - The 911 should DOMINATE in ever category, but barley inches out, Ill take the Camaro all day

[@thegrmcrckr488]

It does dominate in every category.

[@dallasfrost1996]

It's all about the price to performance ratio! Chevy easily did the better job here.

[@kristians2704]

Yeah but the 911 is a way better car overall (not just performance) interior quality, engineering, practicality, tech etc.

[@jakeballard7999]

@@kristians2704 - Antiquated interior design from the 70s - engineering ? We can’t be talking about the 911

[@kristians2704]

@@jakeballard7999 engineering means that Porsche can make a car with 200 less horspower but still win and the interior quality is amzing in a Porsche, the Camaro has just a crappy GM interior with plastic everywere

[@El6Demonio]

Still love my Chevy's

[@joshuamoninger2792]

With a higher rev limit, quicker gear ratios and quicker final drive ratios can be used, and that increases acceleration. The ZL1 has a 6000RPM redline, but the Carrera S has 7500RPM redline. That's a lot of extra revs to play with and the quicker gearing used in the Carrera is why it's so quick.

[@bananaramainpajams]

The math doesn't add up, even if the Porsche is criminally underrated in hp. 400 lbs lighter can't make up for 210 less hp and 260 less tq. Was the ZL1 in track mode? Did it have bad gas? Incredibly heat soaked? Bald tires? Something is off.

[@EK-rr2md]

Better gearing, better traction, less weight all add up.

[@Dolby109]

I'd like to see these two on track. Might go slightly different...hard to say.

[@vernonprice5986]

The ZL1 has a faster Nurburgring time than the 992 Carrera S. And it was set 3 years ago in 2017.

[@Dolby109]

@@vernonprice5986 Yes I know, and it's beat the previous GT3 on several tracks. It all depends on the driver and the course.

[@SharkBoy87]

There's really nothing like Porsche, and this was a straight-line too. Even more fun, imagine that 911 tossed around corners. Easily get the 4S, snow tires, and leave them in the dust during winters. It's a fantastic car. Above all, it's a Porsche. That badge is iconic luxury and prestige. If you asked someone if they wanted a Porsche or Chevy, pretty sure there's a 100% selection rate for Porsche. Assuming they can afford the maintenance.

[@mustafatariq3252]

911 and a camaro have no comparison... 911 is way ahead... Porsche is the best in the world. Perfection in everything, launch acceleration, power... everything is always so spot on. Absolutely love the Porsche ❤️
