Those new GT500's are so sick! Now, just put that motor in the 03/04 Cobra and it would be perfection. Not that the new GT500 doesn't look good, but I still think the 03/04 Cobra's are the best looking Mustang. I can't wait to see the '13 GT500 vs ZL1 in some street races.
It was deffently the meanest looking...IMO

Of course in x275 or ODR no one is running the stock wheels... But if you are referring to a near stock car and say drag radials, I think most would assume you mean Nitto 555r's or a MT (or similar DOT tire) on the stock wheels. Not to mention the car in question wasn't even on Radials.
Again, it is nit picking but I think evolution in general tries to down play the modes needed to run their times. But that again is just my opinion.

with GM owners DAMMNIT!!! The fighting includes blocking/banning/bashing or giving the 
to anyone who is standing behind the LSx,LT1, or Bowtie in general...... Now shut your pie holes and listen to what the almighty god of performance has to say, or further be banned from LS1 ughhhh..... place-to-post-ford-stuff-and-get-away-with-stupidity-Tech.com

Not that the IRS on the Cobra is bad; but it knocks off like 150-200lbs by going to a solid rear...Totally worth it on a car like that IMO.

Evolution's "Bolt-On" parts means literally anythign they can "bolt on" with a wrench. usually new suspension parts, gears, driveshaft, weight reduction, blower pulley,...etc etc.

I'm sorry. I just have to laugh at all this. I've owned 2 2010 Camaro's and I was always a gm guy from day one. I screwed up and bought a Shelby though. I bought the same one twice. Once after the first Camaro in June of 09 and again after the second Camaro in July 2010. I actually test drove a zl1 today. Two actually. One with a manual and one with the auto. They are so much more impressive than the ss. I'm going to tell you though, as far as outright power, there is no comparison. They are nicer daily drivers and do better on the curves but unless you are just blessed and live up near deals gap or can hit a road course regularly, I will take the Shelby any day. I'd love to have both but I'm telling you, from pretty much any highway speed roll on, there just isn't very many cars out there that will run with a gt500 if the guy driving knows how to shift gears. I've seen a lot of videos posted and seen a lot of talk but in the real world I've yet to have a 5th gen Camaro of any kind come around me. Until recently the only mods I had were a 2.6 upper pulley, 110mm cai and magnaflow axle back exhaust. Brakes front and rear were stock. Hahaha and I was on a 305/35-18 drag radial. I didn't go 9's or 10's with that setup but 11.50's in the Georgia heat were pretty easy. By-the-way back in 09 I was the most googled 2010 Camaro search. The title was slow 2010 Camaro what the heck. It broke my freaking heart that it was so slow.

Ford has had over a decade to mess around with what works and what doesn't with forced induction V8 vehicles, so it doesn't surprise me they're ahead of the game, but I know this is far from over. People need to realize the 2012 ZL1 was meant to destroy the 2012 (not 2013) GT500, which it absolutely did.
GM outdoes the 4.6 GT with the '10 ss, then Ford outdoes the SS with the 5.0 GT, then Ford sets the standard with the Boss 302, then GM beats the Boss 302 on many tracks with the 1LE, then GM outdoes the GT500 with the ZL1, then in late 2012 Ford outdoes the ZL1 with the 2013 GT500. Anybody who says that one company is better than the other is either nuts or needs to lay off the kool-aid. They're going back and forth like none other with every model they've got.
I'm personally excited to see where GM makes the LS7 available in the 2014 camaro models. (recently released by gm on 2014 buold sheets).
Bare bones M6 LS7 1le SS might make a lot of GT500/ZL1 owners butthurt reaaaally quick.
