Too much time or not, I appreciate good work. Do I like the super long first gear in the '13 GT500? Nope. But I certainly appreciate the power and engineering involved to make that happen. See what I did there?

You could see the timeslips in the video GM released.

The 11.93 run was with a 1.69 60ft and the 11.96 run was with a 1.73 60ft.

The car was on a tire when it made those runs.

I haven't been around awhile but recently started doing some catch up reading as I contemplate trading to a ZL1. I have to say, the new GT500 is a monster! I can't wait to read about the comparisons at Laguna Seca. I think it's a toss up between the ZL1 and GT500, just depends how many laps and which one heat soaks first. I don't know who LOWDOWN is but he seems to stir the pot quite more than the Ford guys.

It is. Elevated slightly and 100+ temps slows things down for most cars. What was the gtr running?

Fuel for the fire....2013 GT500 runs 12.55 @ 118 mph. Hot track, noob driver, but still....

Going to be plenty of that on both sides... we know what both cars are capable of now...

And then you have the NERVE to feel "injured"...that you're not being spoken to, "respectfully" (my gullibly meter is off the charts, here?). Go back to your sandbox...

Camaro has 'Ring times for "Marketing Purposes" (Ford-boy reasoning), and Ford has Shelby...for the EXACT SAME REASON.

FACT, "Sean"...

Shelby, like his Chili Sauces, was far more than ONE SINGLE INGREDIENT. Some of what made Shelby, the man, a LEGEND would NOT be allowed in those sauces...a pretty good dollip of good ol' fashioned Texas B/S...he AND his saucy-ness could be VERY "incendiary", a word you apparently approve of.

Another fact.

At it again? And changing my words as well? Ha my good friend you spend the time adjusting my argument that you could use to decipher your own Rosetta stone.

The time you take shows the talent you lack in life.
