It's funny that a lot of the same people that won't accept that there is a four tenths difference between the 2011 Mustang GT and the 2011 SS Camaro do believe that there is only a .1 difference between a 2010 Camaro SS and a 2010 Shelby GT500.
Not on street radials you didn't. Probably not on anything less than a full slick. |
EXACTLY. The test with the GT500 was same track and same day with same drivers. It didnt prove a damn thing except that they couldnt drive the GT500.
One look at the 115-118 traps it is easy to see the GT500 is a solid 11 second car with a good 60ft.
I never lived with such delusions of it being head to head with the SS... or have I ever said such a thing.
And yeah...1.5 60ft= WOW. Were you almost lifting the wheels?
An EXCELLENT launch on street tires is 1.8.
1.9-2.0 is the norm/decent for most rwd street cars with capable drivers.
