Head 2 Head: Camaro ZL1 vs. Boss 302
The Camaro and the Mustang are natural enemies, and there’s been reams of positive press about both the ZL1 and the Blue Oval’s track-tuned Pony, the Boss 302 Laguna Seca.

In the past the Mustang has been able to surprise reviewers with how well it handles corners—despite the fact that it still sports a live rear axle. But how will it stack up against the 580hp Camaro with its magnetic ride control?  On this episode of Motor Trend’s Head 2 Head series, hot shoe Randy Pobst flogs them both at Arizona’s Inde Motorsports Ranch. You don’t have to be a genius to figure out which one will come out on top—but it’s still a blast to watch.

Before he began his career in the automotive field, he daily drove a 1978 Jaguar XJ6 with a fully functional electrical system. He lives in Seattle, Washington.
