It almost seems that Ford/Shelby? (Do they actually have a hand post-carpocalypse or is it SVT?) tried too hard (like I'd always seem to see in the car) to cram a successor to the Ford GT and Camaro 'obliterator' into the same car. I seriously do think that if Ford decided to go with a limited production vehicle using a different chassis altogether but with the same technologies and powetrains they could use this better to take on the Viper and Corvette Z06/ZR1.

The package has so much potential, but they need to not use a Mustang chassis. It seems that NOT having a Corvette hovering over Ford's Mustang team unlike Chevrolet's Camaro team resulted in what worked on paper and controlled testing but in the hands of the world.. still isn't ready for what it could be.

Ford, stop p****footing around and just put the capital down on a new LeMans style chassis and plunk the '13 GT500 in that. Corvette/SRT/Ford(SVT) vs THE WORLD.

Do it.

I dare you, Ford.
