So you're bettin' a 23% better time?
Or maybe 1% better time?
Or maybe 1/2 of 1% better time?
Let's phone WYNN'S CASINO and see what YOUR odds are???

That's only 2% of a larger physics equation that would take up the entire blackboard, but I'll say this...
I've never seen a car that's out-gunned by that much in the hp/weight ratio ever overcome that...
But we shall soon see, won't we?
You would have to load
900 pounds of ballast into the 2013 Shelby in order to even-up the power/weight ratios. Just imagine heading out to test and tune, and three fat-ass 300 lb guys ask you if they can "ride along" down the track... That's the dilemma the Camaro faces, magnetic fluid and software helping best it can...
