Heater is correct - the Mustang is the Corvette's biggest competition. Poor 2 seaters

I agree - if I owned a vette, I'd be all sorts of butthurt. It's not like you to bash on Chevy owners, I see you're stepping out of your comfort zone.

Technically the 05-06 GT was the quickest that ford ever made. 11.2@131mph, just a tick quicker than the 09 ZR1. Plus it did it with 88 less HP and the same weight.

Sorry but that's never been duplicated, ever. Also, rumors of it being "tampered" with as well, for marketing. Considering what it was up against, I believe it.

There are multiple ZR1 hero runs in the 10s at 129-133mph.

The FGT is more of a competitor for the. C6Z

Just because there was an 88 HP disadvantage on paper doesnt mean there really was. The GT was underrated by about 50 HP.

So it takes HCI, Nawz, Drag Pack and 700lbs weight advantage to beat a CAI/Pulley car.

Results were expected!

It used to be that ford needed a blower to compete.

Now a blower doesn't even cut it
