I'll have to wholeheartedly disagree... This is the first legitimate player the F camp has come forward with since the '93 Cobra, and more recently the '03-04 Cobra 281 (which may I remind needed an Eaton Hairdryer to get sh!t done) At least this in a Non-FI platform with enough kahunas to slap around the sophomore pricks in Gen 5 Camaros should they drive the 426HP versions like their daddies in their Corvettes. That said, let the games begin.

thats it? wow i woulda thought the 5.0 would of left better then that on a modded gp, No wonder why i kill them on car lengths

but that wouldn't stop me from buying one over the camaro or challenger

I raced heads up with one at a track and the 5.0 was all over the place and i was side by side with him till about half track and then he went on to by me a bit, he seemed really pissed back in the lanes so i didnt bother to ask about the car lol

So, you held off a GT on street tires until he got traction. That's awesome.

Stock tires FTW!!!

i still wonder why performance cars still use such skinny tires???

How about...how come performance cars WEIGH SO DAMN MUCH.

To hell with the US and its safety laws...give me tons of power with no brakes and turning ability with a metal dash, non-collapsible steering column, no emissions from the factory, and bias ply's.

Wait...that's happened before? Oh yeah, Hi 1970!

Props to both of you for proper streetracing etiquette. Three honks, no jumping, no bull****...no flybys.

Good race.

While it could use weight reduction, in the 10 years I've had it and the 14 thousand some odd miles it's accumulated, de-badging it and stripping the impact molding never has been a consideration. -And it still isn't.
