Is this an ls2 or ls3 car? I pulled a modded one from a roll, mostly due to drive error but i pulled him 3 times.

They are hard to launch on street tires. See it all time really. Hell see few guys on slicks that have had an issue. Plus one shown only makes 500hp and weighs a out 3900+ lbs. I raced a stock one in my manual car and walked it. I had tune gears cold air x pipe and suspension. Guy was pissed cause he just bought it.


Not sure believe vette on street tires was no spin and that burn out.

The 2013 GT500 will now incorporate a pretty sophisticated traction control. It is supposed to vary like 5 different systems in order control traction and with an adjustable 2-step. I think Ford realized also that putting this much power in a car with no traction is pretty ridiculous. I will be really interested in seeing how the new GT500 will fare against other cars now with this modification.
If it still loses to everything after that, then I will agree that it is overated.

My friend just bought a gt500 it's a 09 with 12kmiles on it. He got beat from a roll by a ls2 vette I/E and a tune. Not sure if that helps

You have no room to critique any posts. This atleast had a race involved.
