So 650hp vs 580hp...let the wars begin.

Can we get some Moderators back with some ***** that will actually enforce the Rules. Don't see a race, or a kill.

650hp with 285s.
Same problem with the current GT500.
Normal drivers throw mid 13s in those all day long.

They should probably put in an IRS and fix the traction issues.

I think he has stirring the pot and using sarcasm.

This thread sucks.

However, I am interested to see how the cars stack up against each other. Dad said he would buy me a brand new Camaro SS when I graduate (December 2013), but I'm not sure if I want one... Maybe when it uses the Alpha platform in like 2015... but even then I doubt it'll shed more than 150lbs

The car isn't even finished yet. I just bought toe rods, trailing arms, bushing kit. Waiting on my tires. I never said my car ran 10s lol. I'm just poking fun at your ford boys.

The foxbody with the IRS actually has better traction now than before. There's a turbo foxbody running around here with an IRS setup and also has pretty kick *** traction.
These are not TRACK cars. They are street race cars and the streets here are not comparable to yours in the US.

I just can't see IRS helping that monster....


Ohio wait till the car is out. All we can do is speculate. Plus the mark up on a GT500 may make it more-here they are always marked up. I have not seen a ZL1 on the lot yet so I don't know if dealers are ripping people off on that car too.

I think differnet area's will have different mark ups.

On side note for ZL1 dealer wife works at just got a notice that they are behind on shipping them out as they had put production on hold for a minute...BUt t hey shoudl still get the ones they have do in before August.

It already has. He use to spin more than me on 220treadware 21s. The streets here require 40 or below literally. Now with the IRS he spins with me and I can't even get one car on him from a dig. Before I would get 2-3 until he'd hook up and it was game over.

The turbo foxbody also has a similar setup. It was running at 500rwhp or something like that and now owner claims to have 750. 302 stroked 331 with some little turbo pushing 20psi..... Absolutely clueless on setup or numbers but he's going to run me next week so we will see what's up.

Also got a run with a cammed/tuned c6z06 on tuesday/wednesday.

Is that what you want? Be careful what you wish for... You probably would've been banned a long time ago if that were the case.
