Rare breeds: Camaro ZL1 takes on Corvette L88

What would you do if you owned one of Chevrolet’s wildest, most rare muscle cars? Would you keep them in your air-conditioned garage? Or would you be like these guys, and hit the dragstrip?

That’s what the owner of this C3 Corvette L88 did, while racing a Camaro ZL1. Both of them were built in 1969 with the all-aluminum 427ci V8 engine putting down 430 horsepower. So this battle of the blue-chip bowties is more for science, if anything.

There were only 116 Corvettes built in 1969, with the all-aluminum L88 engine—and the Camaro ZL1 is a mere one of 69. Which car fares better with the aluminum 427? Watch and find out.
