Again, Ford will not release the 2013 GT500 unless it will beat the ZL1 in the 1/4 mile just as they did with the Mustang 5.0. Being last to release a performance car sometimes has it's advantages as both Chevy and Ford know. I'm anxious to see a head to head run with the ZL1 and the current GT500 and when Ford produces the 2013, that comparo as well. It will be good for both sets of supporters.

You realize the 5.0 was basically a done deal before the Camaro ever hit the streets, right? Deisgning, tweaking, duability testing, and getting a new motor certified is a multi year deal. THey can't just say "oh, thats quicker than us, lets just add this to the car when we start building them next month". It just doesn't work that way.
