The 5.0 is 250-300lbs lighter than a 5th gen. Not 500-600lbs
. And the "well if it was lighter it would destroy blah blah blah" is a pretty ricer thing to say. Almost as bad as saying, "well if the Mustang GT had the 6.2 instead of the 5.0 it would butt-**** the Camaro SS." See how stupid both of those are?

lets face it. Any statement other than... Im happy with how fast I am screw you... Is STOOPID...
There is always going to be a faster car. Give GM a year to ligthen the Camaro and itll be faster. Then ford will up its power or make a new terminator SVT version with 600 some odd HP and itll keep going and giong.
So stop fighting and understand... Everyone likes different things.
Plus my subaru will own all once I build my block and put a GT40R turbo on... Its going to need like 4 bottles of nitrous and 3 wings(2 in teh back and 1 up front) to keep it going down the road... LOL

How would you possibly know this? I think the Z28 is going to have the same problem as the Gt500, a heavy car having trouble putting down all the power to ground. So when the Z28 comes out im sure the mags and people will be running crappy times as well (stock of course).

[QUOTE=DoggyB22;14011305]Like I've been saying its about time Ford made the GT fast..... I think the front looks pretty sick but the rears are
But like mentioned Ford lovers are giving this car WAY TO MUCH HYPE! Hell I think the 5.0 is even more over hyped then when the 2010 Camaro SS was announced..... haha
EXACTLY.... Congrats Ford you finally made your GT fast!
Now move on Ford lovers & stop over hyping the 5.0. ![GTFO](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/gtfoslap.gif)
Read my sig!![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)
Yea I loved when they all flocked over to GM sites once they showed the 5.0 beating the 5th gen Camaro. YAY! Good job you beat a car that weighs like 500-600 lbs more?
Its like what I've been saying if the 5th gen Camaro weighed around 3500 lbs it would destroy the 2011 GT.
Since your using ricer comments so if Ford's dropped 5-600 pounds off the Gt500 it would be able to run with the Corvette z06 right, the fact is the cars are what they are you can spectulate all day long on what they would do with weight dropped power added etc.

Luckily the GT500 now weighs less than the Camaro SS... I think it will easily weigh 150-200lbs less than the Z28, if the Z28 is comparable as far as equipment is concerned.

my comment about the Z28 was a friendly rivalry joke...
& of course you noobs come in. My comment is a ricer excuse?
No its an ****** opinion. I said the Camaro needs to be lighter in order to beat the GT Yes if the GT500 weighed low 3k it would be a hell of a fast car. But it doesn't & I HIGHLY doubt it ever will weigh that much. Now at least my opinion is reasonable of dropping a couple hundred out of the thing. Which is the "rumor" that the Z28 will?

So im stating my opinion and that makes me a troll if you say so. So if someone in a honda that you beat tells you if i had four more cylinders i would beat you thats not a ricer excuse its just there opinion right.

Name 2 that talk crap. I struggle to name 1. I hope by "talk crap" you mean them being a voice of reason that doesn't see the world through LSx-biased glasses because that's really what they do. You don't have to defend anything unless it is pure bullshit someone is saying. When that happens, run your car not your mouth.

i dislike fords. All of them. I can respect a fast car. And fords can be made and some come fast. but no matter what they are they are still fords. IMO anyway
