Shelby GT-500 V.S. C6 I was in my vette 2night at a local meet and a kid showed up in a new Gt-500 ive been waiting forever to run one and he agreed. We did a couple rolls a 50 and a 60. The 50 was kinda back n forth but he slightly pulled on me and teh 60 he got me by about a car. Im a lil dissapointed i guess but ohh well cant win em all first loss in the new car and it was to a stang

Naa..Only Evan Smith got a stock Gt500 to trapp 117 mph in the 1/4..
everyone else trapps 112-115 mph..
Noway the guy was stock...
Spend 1500$$$ and have a decent size cam put in bringiong yo to 420 rwhp. You wont loose to him again till he spends more cash..
3250 pounds and 420 rwhp will be a good combo.

If he pulled you with you running those times, he ain't stock. Stock for stock the LS2 Vettes are about .1 quicker in the 1/4 than the so called 500 h.p. Shelbys.

A quick CAI and tune on a shelby will put it up to 530 rwhp. There was a guy I raced at the track with one from Lafayette. He was running a respectable 11.8@122 with just those mods on Nittos. I am definitely impressed with the cars.

You guys keep thinking the Shelbys are just a joke and slow in stock form. These cars are for real. Sigforty is right. They run mid 12s with a regular (non-professional) driver right off the floor and respond amazingly to mods, not the least of which is the terrible air intake arrangement Ford put on the car. Tires with a CAI and tune will get the car deep into the 11s.
