Yea stock the GT500's dont impress me and I also see alot that run like junk. But there is a few guys we know out there and there stuff runs good. I see alot of big power ls1's at the track and they dont run good either. It all depends on the setup. I have seen new z06's in the 12's and 13's it could be like that with anything. Btw back on topic I probably dont know who it was but it may be better if you listed like a color or something. Btw I also think GM builds the best N/A Pushrod V-8.

I am not understanding your, "does it run 11's?" remark.
My bike doesn't run 11's either. It runs 9's stock.
My question to you is: Have you ran any 03/04 Cobras or the new GT500s? I don't think you have...

Bottom line i guess is the GT500 can be very good bang for you buck and dont judge a book by its cover.
I heard theres a red Corvette around your area that makes as much rwhp as a GT500 and its slow as ****, cant get out of its own way and it has the NDF mod (NON-DRIVING FUGUH) I took a pic of it and put it in my sig. I think you should pick on that car when you see it

There are a few cars making as much power as that GT500 so I'm sure you could have your pick I'm afraid the 3 speed huffy aint what she used to be from a roll but that little red button sure is fun to play around with from the dig! Spec clutches are junk too by the way. If it fails on you try a Textralia.

As a matter of fact I do. I have also had a lot of runs with 03/04 Cobras.

Man you must be lost. Re-read my first post! That is why you are in the thread. I had a GT500 try to out run me. He didn't pull me at all in first & second, and I started behind him. Then I missed 3rd. I placed a thread on this encounter on the street racing forums. You made your first remark that basically said nothing other than "they aint no joke" yeah okay? I don't understand your bike remark? The guy who put my engine together ran 9 sec 1/4 in his trans am. He set records for the first N/A LS1 in the 9's. aka Rapid Motorsports. Your last question on the GT500 was answered in the 2nd line and the first thread of this post. As for 03/04 Cobra's? What's your point? My car isn't stock. If they were stock I did win it's not much of an accomplishment. If you want to be critical about racing one. Let me slap a turbo or supercharger on my engine. Oh & the remark about my 11 sec. I didn't know if the new GT500 ran 11's or not. I couldn't remember. The person who owned my engine before ran 11.2 1/4 with 12bolt & 4.10's , & upgraded fuel line.
