I agree with the Camaro guys on this one. The 2013 GT500 has to prove that it can handle all high performance driving activities well. The ZL1 has put down a 7:41 ring time and been put up against some super cars and real handling tracks, and done amazingly for a 4100 lb sports coup muscle car.

Ford needs to be very clear about it's best nurburgring times and aggressive about back to back racing against the ZL1. Caroll Shelby's soul is in limbo, and if this GT500 doesn't amaze the world, I'm afraid he going to cook for an eternity. Erik
