Your ongoing pessimism surrounding everything having to do with this particular car is just very amusing to me

see? their problem is that they're brainwashed into not thinking for themselves. they think that OHV is the only way to fly, that you NEED independent rear suspension to handle massive amounts of power, and to hold the road going around courses.

Slow down mr 5.0 - all I can remember was the bashing Cobra guys gave to the LS crowd over their "ancient live axle" vs their impressive IRS. Now you want to turn the table completely around some 15 years later?

Anyone who believes OHV is the only way to go is fooling themselves. Although, prior to coyote, I wouldn't take any OHC Ford mod motor over any GM pushrod offering.

Well it's getting real hot out now all over the country so we likely won't see the absolute best out of any cars (be they GT500s, ZL1s or otherwise) but by December the ETs will certainly drop from what we're seeing/hearing about right now.

Brainwashed? Umm ok. I've given the GT500 plenty of respect trust me. Its an awesome car but it still needs to prove the hype that people are giving it.

I mean there's plenty of times during at night & I don't know about you but last summer in CA it didn't really get that hot. Pretty on & off with heat. I think in the Bay Area we only had like a few days where it was 100+ so I'm sure someone will be able to prove what the GT500 is capable of in a few weeks

True. And even from the 'warm weather' ETs/trap speeds we can still sort of extrapolate/decipher what it might run in good air as well so I am looking forward to reading about some 'sticky rear tire' passes soon.

And yet your STILL trying to provoke the situation............. Ummm sorry I don't read all the threads you make about your "car situation" on a forum full of people. Your the one making pointless post/call outs.
