with 305 tires and TRUE launch control, the ZL1 will murder stock gt500 times. the only way a stock 2013 GT500 will compete is with true launch control. IMO.

What if the GT500 has a really good driver like Lemmons?

I saw that, very cool. I wonder why they don't build an ecoboost v8. The v6 puts down some serious power, I could only imagine what a v8 would do and still get good fuel economy.

it wont break axles. it wont wheel hop. drop the clutch and mash the throttle. all driver skill is removed IMO. computers are what makes that car so fast.
