Still too much hype and buzz...don't know what source is accurate.
given the power to weight ratio it's a drivers race...with higher speed aerodynamics favor C5.
GT C5
412 350
3700 3200
8.980582524 9.142857143
An A4 with the 2.73 would REALLY struggle. C5Z would beat it no problem.

Are you serious? The 2011 GT WILL walk all over a C5... Have you ever seen a C5 and a 2010 camaro run?
C5 is a drivers race for an fbody... Usually the dig races go in favor of the fbody because of IRS. From a roll it is a toss up with the advantage going to the C5.

a properly driven c5 till pull a similar fbody from a roll by like two cars, nvm what the guy a few post above says....fact is far more c5s have hit 110mph stock than fbodys usually about a 2mph difference....id say drivers race with new stang with slight edge to the GT...FRC with the best chance....

Should they win on paper? Hell yes, everytime. Do they usually when it comes down to it... All depends on the two cars.
Never mind anything you say.
:eye:
I say the new GT walks all over a C5.. A 5th gen would pull on a C5 no problem, and a GT is going to pull on a camaro. Is it that hard to comprehend? That does not equal a drivers race by ANY means. Mark my words.

Here you can see it in action against the new camaro ss and challenger srt8. Scroll down about half the page and there is a video of the whole challenge. The mustang gets down pretty good. http://www.motortrend.com/roadtests/...son/index.html

That is like asking if a bolt on ls1 could take a stock mach 1 and someone saying no... Then ask, why couldn't I? And they say you can't beat a cobra, and they have the same body.
If someone says c5, that is a base model corvette. If someone says C5Z or C5Zo6, that is not the base model.
