Good kill. The GT500 isn't all that impressive. What is the deal with them? I've not had the opportunity to see one at the track but what I've seen (online) they are slow for the HP level. Maybe the cars that have good drivers haven't posted their slips so the info is skewed by shitty drivers.

Trust me stock GT500's are slow. I used to work for a Ford dealer and drove the first one to come in. I had a guy tell me I don't know why you bought that Vette when you could have bought a GT500. I smiled and told him I really like slow cars...lol. I won't even race GT500's any more...unless I can tell its modified...

Nice runs! I couldn't even imagine racing anyone from a 20mph roll in my car on stock rubber. I'd be spinning while my opponent was winning!
At 20mph on the stock F1's w/3.73 gears, I'm pretty sure your buddy was spinning the heck out of his tires, too. Hard to tell from the video.

gt500s can be quick in the right hands, look what evolution performance has done or look at the last muscle mustangs.

I know they can be quick, but stock especially new they are SLLLLOOWWW. They do open up after break in miles, and I am well versed in how much is on the table. IMO I consider my car which is a 10 second " capable " car slow. It must be all the time spent in the motor city, lol. Now 9's in street trim is what I consider fast....

. Seriously people, I always say "good kill" unless they're being ********. But if they shouldn't have won I'm gonna say something. I'm aware that "anything can happen on the street," but sometimes you just can't except the same results twice.
