lol why are some ppl acting so negative? ITS ******* gt500 they weigh 4000lbs THERE NOT FAST and for whoever compared that to a c6 vette..lol thats not even a match the c6 would rip it a new ******* and still keep going. There not that fast dude its all just for show.

didn't C&D or R&T do a comparison between the C6 and the gt500 a few months back? i don't remember the C6 really 'ripping it a new one'. i thought they were somewhat comparable in a straight line...the C6 having less weight and power and better traction than the gt500.

I work in the service department at a ford dealership, and I drive a ls1 camaro(my personal car)....Take it from me, I dont bench race or read magazine stats....I drive a gt500 everyday for one concern or another. They are TURDS!! I drove a customers 07 gt500 3 days ago that had a pulley,tune, and 4.10 gears...and it felt slower than a bone stock c6(ls2) vette. The only reason I say that is because we took a 06 vette in on trade, and a buddy and I took them both "out for lunch" at the same time. I drove the shelby and got smoked by 4-5 car legths by my friend in the vette. Then we switched and I pulled him by 5-6 with me driving the vette. So...If you can half *** drive and you have more than 375 rwhp....you should pimp slap the gt 500 like its your bitch!

Power to weight ratios are very similar between the 2 cars, should be a good one from a dig or a roll. Try him on the highway and from a dig, if you get beat it wont be by much at all. Plenty of bolt-on f-bods have done 11s. And why r u always hatin black mamba, a 100 shot on his car would enable him to destroy that overweight pos, retard. BTW I love how you quote me in your sig and its completely out of context, lol.
