I can go find a bunch video's of Vetts making more then GTs also. Just a lot easier finding GTs making more when they are racing.

Put to side by side that make around the same. You see it at the TX mile. And so far last time I looked the Ford GT's are going faster.

LMRs 4th Gen SS Camaro did 244mph at the last TX Mile on 20s .. THeir is always someone faster..

Only LS1tech can take a thread about a Corvette and a Dodge and turn it into a Ford thread. Soon it will be about the new 5.0

****, I give up

Better than on SVTP...

They took it to a new level with the comparisons of GTR's (which only one single nut swinger brought up) and how "significant" 60-130 times are, while still arguing that high HP (1200rwhp+) is impossible for Vettes and Vipers to hook up with on the street "running street tires". Not sure about you but I don't know of any sane person who would put thousands of dollars into a car to make insane HP without fitting it with the proper shoes.
