I screwed up and read it here but it's for the Shelby not the normal 2013 GT500.

Also I can't tell if they got real data or just making up stories. Good to see the youtube videos coming out on the ZL1.

 

Here is the video of the white auto ZL1 run mentioned earlier.

Movin out for an automatic lol

 

I thought it was a different car that went 11.16 and 11.11, but it was the same car on different days.

This run is in February of 2011, the other was December of 2010.

 

not bad. it sounded like he "flashed" the converter on launch. i wonder how much faster he'd have gotten, had he used a 2 step, and launched hard.

that said.......it also seems like a lot of work to an already expensive(somewhat) car to get to those et's.

 

that wasn't a stock run.




big and littles. not stock.

 

Bigs and littles=slicks and skinnys, which is what we were talking about this whole time.

 

This **** blew up... lol either way I'm sure we will be seeing some faster stock times from a ZL1 soon!

 

i know what big and littles are. i thought that the times were run stock.

 

Hey, people will knock things... Particularly those comparing the Mustang directly to the Camaro and vice-versa. Idonno how long it will be before anyone gets into the 8's, but you can bet you'll be reminded that the 2011 Mustang GT got there in less than 6mo and it started out slower.
Not only fast, nicer than nearly any track I've been to and I've been to tracks in PA, OH, TX, MO, CA, IL and GA. I've also been to PBIR(of course) when it was still named correctly... MOROSO MOTORSPORTS PARK! Plus, Bradenton, Gainesville(rarely prepped well), Orlando and even an 1/8th miler called Immokalee(way south, central FL). That "track" is really an old runway and it's not very good, or wasn't when I was there, anyway.

It's all good, but I'd say clarification was needed(and added) to say it also has a cam swap... Not really a bolt on. It's haulin' ***, but I can't help but feel this is a bit much.

 

they've already gone beyond bolt ons......i'd have thought a beast like this could accomplish 10's with just bolt ons.

 

I think we would be remiss to say that 10.32@132 and 11.1@124 are "about the same time". Lots of people need a cam and stall (for example) to pick up 7/10's much less 10 mph. Going from a 13.7 to a 12.92 is worlds easier then from 11.1 to 10.32. The faster you go the harder it becomes to pick up time.

 

I was talking about the one this thread was started about that went 11.03@130 with "Pulley, Injectors, cold air kit, ported throttle body and drag radials and a tune". Those mods on a GT500 puts it in the low 10s.

 

In regards to the 2013 GT500 the head of SVT said recently, "The engine was just recently certified at 662 hp and 630 ft lbs of torque, 16 mpg city, 24 hwy, no gas guzzler tax, 0-60 in first gear!"

 

^^^^Thats not to much of a surprise since they are running a bigger blower at almost twice the boost stocking a zl1. Once they put a pulley on that bad boy it should be 19-20lbs and that's alot compared to the zl1 thats barely in the teens with a smaller pulley but I could be wrong because I believe I read that the stock pulley is very small to start with so it may require a blower upgrade sooner then the older models did.

 

So? The ZL1 has more displacement... Who cares?

 

Not much of a surprise? I was shocked when I heard it wasn't going to face the gas guzzler penalty! At that hp, it may be the 1st car to avoid the fines...

 

I don't see why the ZL1 would not run mid to high 10's with those same mods. It would do better with a set of bias ply stickes on a stick car.

 

Wow.





The new taller (numerically lower) rear axle gearing helped with both of those of course.

 

If the ZL1 were there, what would we all be saying???

And still, we could all admit... I'm IN!

 

Some guy new to the car just went 12.02 in a brand new ZL1 all stock...he did better then Hennessey...
