They may be a tad slow from completely stock, but you obviously forgot to read the article in 5.0 magazine when they did a CAI, a/f tune, and DR and ran a 11.7(STOCK PULLEY) for all under $1k. A pulley and a dyno tune would have easily netted a low 11, high 10 time, so please, go back to la-la land and let the grown ups talk.

And at MY track theyve ran high mid to high 13s I guess if the track is different then whatever, actually you know what check these links out they seem to usually be the most accurate of averages for cars.

I never said fbodys run 13.1 in my eyes there mid 13s with a normal driver, A good driver they could get into low 13s and with stickies 12s easy. argue all you want im done im not going back and forth with your petty crap if you think ur shitstangs are so fast then go ******* buy one and get the **** off of this GM LS1 POWERED OBJECTS forum, we don't have ford powered overpriced 4000lb bricks of ****. Actually how about we just get a thread lock cause all this is is going back and forth how one guy thinks there so fast. Its never going to end.

for that car practically.. If you had slicks or DR's on a fbody running at the track and the gt500 was next to you with street tires, YOU would rip it a new one, get your facts straight moron there not ******* fast there overpriced cars that weigh a shitload. Thats like saying a 04 gto would beat a fbody...since you don't take weight into comparison I'm guessing you would say that even tho it isn't true.. But anyways why don't you just fricken race a shitstang and see how you do first before you start thinking there almighty fast. Id guarantee you'd shut the **** up then after you realize what kind of a idiot you are thinking they run 12s lol. I'm not saying there slow, I mean they got great top end but acceleration wise there not all that great, you could buy a fricken c6 vette for the price of those things and beat one brutally since they take corners alot better then a big brick does that is so un-aerodynamic I think my dogs head would get ripped off if he stuck it out the window of those gt500s.

It shouldn't be, but some people are just to thick headed to admit they are fairly fast even stock. Once you put the bolt-ons on, they gain a ton of hp. I am in no way degrading the GM crowd, because I simply love their fourth gen engines...

just pointing something diferent a friend of mine destroyed a gt500 at the drag stript fith times in a roll with his turbo b16 on a crx weighing 2000 lb and pushing 380rwhp. I hate racers but the truth must be told. it WAS SAD. the fact is those new gt500 doesn't justify its 500 horses. they are way to heavyyyyyyyyyyyyyy.

O.K. - this thread is getting stupid and the answer has already been given by myself and others. The GT500 is a heavy mid to high 12 second car that responds well to mods and has loads of power. It looks pretty cool, but is pricey and was designed as more of a cruiser than a dominant track or strip car. If your F-body runs in the mid to high 12s then you should be able to compete with it in a 1/4 mile drag. Why is this so hard to understand?
