So you rced a new supersnake as the guy told you. so it looked like pic below. As said spinning isn't winning. So good kill. It happens. Oh and als there is no 2011 Cobra or 2011 5.0 Cobra. They are GT500's not cobra's. The GT500 is a 5.4 SC till 2013 which is a new 5.8 SC engine. The supersnake can come with a couple different power levels all way up to 800hp. And a nice hefty price tag also. They even now have one that is coming out that makes a 1000hp. Price including car is 200k. Way over priced if ask me. BUt any way what one did you race from pics below.

I noticed that also. Most likely a Mich up of the car to be made. As in not production model. Either way still over priced in my book. 200k for a mustang. No ******* way. I was to cheap to pay 47k for the black GT500 our dealer had. My buddy bought it instead.

The 2011-2012 are 550hp and 2010 are 540. The 13 is 650. 2013 models are hitting dealers already. Guy could have been bullshitting you on upgrades. Or he may have had them. Either way nice kill. Beat the driver or car a win is a win. I have found most the guys with GT500 are cocky ****** and can't drive. They think they are better then everyone. The vette club guys are cooler then most the GT500 owners. Even the old man with the ZR1.

I remember when CHEVYKLR was being sold for $50k. Not sure if anyone ever bought it.

Sorry OP but you just ran a kid in a V6 stang with Cobra sticker on it. Even with traction problem it will beat you like youre in reverse. If you were H/C or at least cammed, traction could make you win a race against a GT500. The outcome of this race really makes it look like you race a V6.
You will know when youll run accross a real GT500.
