Wow, Mustang sounded good, but next thing for him should be shifting lessons and some a good pride boost after those whippings

regardless of aero, the Z has power to weight.


if the GT has 450-500rwhp like most turbo GT's do, and has a 200 lb dead weight, then...

turbo GT 450-500rwhp/3800lbs= 8.444 - 7.6 lbs/hp

z06: 3380 with 200lb driver = 400rwhp - 444rwhp to be dead even. so the Z has quite a bit more than the possible 400-444rwhp... 425-460rwhp takes something extra.

IMO it really seems to have ported heads. if there is no lope anyone hears then it has a high lift moderate duration cam with wide lobe seperation. i can see it making the kind of power it does with some really good heads.

Wow that first run was nasty, anyone know if that mustang has been to the track? That's one fast c5z and one hell of a driver if he's exhaust only, I would lose to it with pleasure.

Your forgetting stuff like gearing, rotating mass, the ability of the ls6 to turn more rpm to stay in a lower gear longer. There is more to making a car accelerate than rwhp. After all, the race is about acceleration, not rwhp.
