You have never once seen me complain about that. I am the one who has people bitch at me when I talk about cars running in great DA like we have around here. And I am also well aware what a Z06 can do.

Evan smith And MM&FF magazine tested the 2012 boss at the track. They put Mickey Thompson drag radials on it, adjusted the suspension to settings better suited for the drag strip and let it rip. He launched at 5k rpm(dead hooked), and did not let off the throttle for the shifts, power shifted every gear. Basically beat the ever living snot out of it, and got a best time of 12.0@113 mph.

Agreed, it's more a tire thing than anything else: tire tech has advanced insanely in the last decade- hell, in the last couple years.
No, I chased down a Laguna Seca back on September 10th of last year and tried to race him. He wouldn't race needless to say, but he did have his little daughter in the car so I don't blame him. And the Boss mustangs came out a couple months before the Laguna Seca I believe?

i wanted that wing on my gt.....almost ordered it, but figured i'd add it later. now that i'm adding the other stuff, i can't make myself order that wing, 'cause i'd have to drill extra holes in my trunk lid.

Local guy bought a Orange Boss and the first few times to the track; he could only run 13's.
Saw it a few weeks ago at the track running low 12's (12.2's) and then heard that was all he was after and it's now for sale.
Seems like a car that you have to learn to drive.

I will find the article and link. Boss impresses me for sure, and still have a lot of respect for the C5Zs
