Compare the fastest stock Z06 to the fastest stock ZR1
That 133hp isn't doing a ton.

Z06
1~~~~ 10.715 130.32 1.60 Ranger ~~~~~ 2006

ZR1
1~~~~ 10.260 135.35 1.52 Fartpipe ~~~~ 2009

Now thats almost a half second difference which is pretty big tho I agree I would expect it to be a little more. I know once et's get this low the 100hp=1sec rule is out the window. But going off of this then the new shelby should be able to knock off a 10.6 with the power gain (roughly). What baffles me about these vette times is that the Z06 runs 130mph with a tire and the ZR1 with a tire runs about the same minus the ONE car that did 135. Some were even slower @ 128mph.

Whats also weird is that the bolt on record for a Z06 is quicker than the internal engine modification Z06. Weird stuff that just doesnt add up.
