you guys are retarded it is 505hp, it also depends on the rear end they get. plus it depends on the driver, you gotta be able to launch and shift. but i dont see your mustang keepin up with that car on an actual track.
One, I already said it has 505 hp, Two nobody said that they could beat it with their Mustang. The question was simply shouldn't they be faster and the answer is yes. Nobody said they thought they could take it out with their Mustang. Try reading everything first before you attempt to flame, who is the retard now huh?

That was them... they are real... However background on the video; It was terrible conditions with a strong headwind. They were also just regular GM employees it was a picnic. (people who probably have never taken a car down a drag strip ever). A few of the runs also had passengers.

The black car was also trapping between 117 and 120 mph, thats plenty of mph for a mid-high 11 second run. You could hear it frying the tires, maybe the driver was not that good?

So a Vette frying its tires off the line will affect its time and trap speed and not a Cobras? Not to dig up old ****, but you just stepped on your own toes.

Somehow I knew you were going to do this. Here is what I have been trying to say all along. The vettes in that vid had traction problems, we argree? Now when they hook up, they will run sompalce in the 11's agreed? However it will be at the same mph (in this case somwhere between 117-120 mph). As I have said all along MPH is an idication of a cars potential (read that as HP if you want). Do I think your car will pick up MPH when you get it to hook? Yes I do and I always said that, however I don't think you will pick up 20-25 MPH like some people were trying to say. JDan I am not going to start all this all over again, I am just stating what I know from my experiance, if you disagree than fine by me. Right now I am off to go to the track with my friend TMC so we can run his imaginary Factory Stock car, maybe I will get a vid for you.

Track/Weather conditions were terrible... simple as that... i'd say add about 4 mph and fix the traction issue or bad driver issues... and its the car everyone says it is.

please if i was trying to flame i would have done a better job. i just find it funny how you guys dont know right off the bat what the stock ratings are on cars. yes, the Z06 can run in the 11's doesnt mean every driver can do it. so the video and question is pointless. so is this argument.

Look at the MPH, it is a much better indicator of what kind of power the car is making than the ET. The ET has too many varibles. Has anyone else here ever heard the term "tune for MPH and drive for ET"?

I said the stock rating before you did. No one said it could not run 11s you just thought you could be a know it all without reading. There is only one rearend on that car so there is no depends. You don't know much about the factory specs do you?
