I haven’t seen it personally I’ve driven about 5 s550s and they were all slow stock . I would gladly put up my old s197 against the new one and have no issues pulling one . I mean this 5.0 just got beat by a 2 ton plus sedan lol

S550 is a nice car but a step back in performance

I like Scat packs for sound, 5.0 for getting other guys to agree and Camaro for speed.

lmao nope he told me it would be close so he went ahead and added a passenger to his car since I had my girl with me . After the race he was shocked as hell honestly if my car was stock I’m pretty sure I would of pulled him .

the gen2 coyote makes a lot more Bolton power than my gen1. power is ok, but the weight kills that advantage from what ive seen.


the ones ive raced weren't in the same zipcode with me. I am not sure what it takes for a s550 to compete short of a lot of weight reduction.

Since he is Hellen Keller behind the wheel, that is correct. Otherwise, you will take home the L.
