Default GT500 FTL

So i ran my first GT500 today. Blue with white stripes. went from a 50 kick. I started in 1st gear (th400 w/ 3.73's), he got walked pretty badly on motor. He did a fantastic ricer flyby after.

Brought the guy back down to earth a bit.

So your cars an 11 second ride? Flat out walking a shelby is quite a feat.

Any QM times? Dyno numbers? Pictures? Anything like that. You also have to consider, the guy is still getting used to his car. He might have just gotten it for all we know. I've won a race or two i shouldnt have because the kid straight up cant drive.

Idk I think those trannys are 3 speed....
Edit: Looked it up and I was correct. That would explain being in 1st at 50 mph...
