Re: 2013 GT500 Launch Control
SRA>IRS. First hand experience here. I don't believe the BS that magazines spew.
For the guys commenting on the road course times, how many of you actually race on a road course?
At 196 mph, a mile goes by pretty effin fast. I do agree though, whats the point?

I don't know how many of these guys are active road course racers, but I do know that 98% of 5th gen Camaro owners are avid road course racers.

Especially since the 13 GT500 has come out. How fast a car can go around a road course is now the most important trait to consider.

Is now a good time to bring up a fourth gen is as fast as a fifth?
So 10 years in the waiting and it isn't any faster?
Bigger fail than the old mod motor.

Don't try to tell a 5th gen owner that... I prefer to show them. LOL
Re: 2013 GT500 Launch Control
Ford is winning. It's the reason they didn't take bailout money, people actually want their cars and they work. The main reason I went with a Ford over anyone else, is it was the fastest AND least expensive. Plus, the powertrain is identical to its V8 siblings, so I know it can handle power should I care to boost down the road. Camaros give their V6 a crappier manual trans and Dodge won't put a manual in anything that's not a V8. That lost them my money.
There's a guy with the 3.7 about to break into the 12s running basic mods. Most expensive mod he has is the driveshaft.

Re: 2013 GT500 Launch Control
What is the badge on the door?
Looks like a GT emblem to me, but that would mean its a V8, not a V6... so I don't want to be the one to call Shenanigans. Please enlighten me.
Re: 2013 GT500 Launch Control
Custom 3.7 badge. See how the sides of the grill are red? They only did those body color on the V6 models. GT's got darker ones.

I'm not making fun of you, I'm not sure what an 87 GNX has to do with this thread, but I understand you hate mustangs so much that you wanted to make a jab. And FFDP is most likely saying "IDGAF" to this thread because he hates fords probably as much as you do lulz.
