ok guys lets think about this.


The GT500 costs, say, we'll give it a GENEROUS 10 thousand more than the SS.

Then we'll factor in the primitive axel, which is good for nothing but going in a straight line. So that would lead a thinking person to believe that is their big piority when building this car.


So lets add this up. The Car is built for straight line speed, and it costs 10k+ more than the Camaro... well to me that means it BETTER be faster or its an EPIC FAIL that would make the GTR laugh at ford.

A tick over 13.0 sec. and you're through the quarter-mile. It's a rush, of course, but not overly dramatic. Try the same thing with this pair's predecessors of 1970 or so and you'll find yourself in a bit of a wrestling match. Ain't progress wonderful? Maybe yes, and maybe sometimes it's fun to wrestle."
