    Default Anyone got a Shelby GT500 yet?

    Well we recently got one in at the job, however I havent been able to convince the owner to run me in the one that we have.

    I was wondering if any of you guys on here knew of anyone with a stock 07 Shelby GT Mustang that would be down for a race? I really want to give one a run as I think it should be VERY close from a dig in a 1/4mi. Of course the vehicle needs to be stock, with a few mods that thing is a monster. Just wondering if anyone on here knew of one. Thanks guys.

    'cause the shelby is a 4000 pound pig. leave it to ford to come up with a new mustang that costs about $8k more than the last generation, 390 hp cobra, but runs about the same. they should be ashamed. sure you can modify it easily, but for a "500" hp, $40k+ car, one should expect a little more.

    For the same price you can get a Corvette C6 Couple....which is quite a bit more heh

    When was this? Have to forgive me, dont remember every race I have. But as lightspeed said, the weight makes a significant difference. Personally I think it would be a very good race.

    I don't see any Supras running a mid nine with more boost? Expect a little more.... hummm... here's proof... and there's about 4 other companies that have just reached 9's STOCK MOTOR, STOCK TRANSMISSION, & STOCK SUPERCHARGER... just more boost and a little nitrous. $40k, eh? I'm sure you paid more than what your car is worth.... TMV is 18-26k? for a car that is no where near as fast as a Cobra, Camaro, or Vette stock? and the Supras were alotta more new...

    What are you talking about? Are you trying to bash supras now? its flattering to hear every domestic fan to compare everything to a supra :jerkit: And you think bluebook values have anything to do with how much a car is actually worth? Wow. Its funny that a nice 1997 supra that costs $41k new is worth more than that now. How much is a 97 cobra worth in relation to its new cost?
    A stock supra is much superior to that cobra...in every respect you can imagine... except straight-line acceleration. And keep in mind it came out over 13 years ago. I wonder how all the cars you mention (vette, camaro, etc) compared to it in 1993. If you think a stock non-supercharged mustang, c4/c5 vette, camaro, whatever can outrun a stock supra, you are incorrect.
    You cant win an arguement about this, so lets get back on topic...
    The $40k+ (some people are paying $50k for them) Shelby gets its ass kicked by stock corvettes, and it barely outruns a stock 03 cobra that costs far less. This thread is about stock cars...
    Who cares if you can mod it up and put a bottle on it and run 9's on slicks. You can do that to a 1987 mustang 5.0 also, and for a lot less money. Some people dont live their life 1/4 mile at a time.

    There is nothing wrong with my car, I just did not have an opportunity to make it out that saturday night.

    I was out this Saturday night, ran a Green turbo M3.

    I won't be able to make it out this upcoming saturday I have a company xmas party to go to.

    We'll line them back up again, I have no doubt I will put a whooping on your car 3 MORE times!

    My C5 Z06 went 12.05 @ 114.54 stock at commerce in regards to vette times for this thread.

    Cheers,

    Mike

    Hey man,
    Do you drive the Black C5z with tires? One of your friends came up to me and saw if I wanted to run you, but I was on my way home (thats why I was next to my car)

    I haven't had the car long, and will probably look for some runs once I get more seat time.

    The Cobra, not you... you jumped too! haha I bet now the Skyline could beat you, easily... and the Mustang if you wouldn't jump the gun could really tear you a new one.

    It's not jumping the gun, it's called HOOKING! Hence the drag radials purpose in life. I think people spent too much $$ on making power, instead of trying to hook what they got.

    I see you have no idea what you're talking about, again. I never bashed the Supra's I was bashing YOU! Look at the video... then post up a Supra running 9s with stock turbos. Hell show me a stock turbo'd supra in the 10s. Shelby get's beat by stock vettes... C6 Z06s that are 70k... not even in the same ball field. Just because I have Mustangs, doesn't mean I'm not an import fan... hell, it the past 2 years I have had 5 imports. And we are in a street racing forum, aren't we???

    LOL, OK, youre bashing me. No, I think youre making comments about supras being overpriced and how they cant beat stock mustangs, camaros, whatever. Maybe someone hijacked your SN and posted that for you?
    Like I said, its irrelvant how fast you can make a modded shelby, and its irrelevant if a stock turbo supra and go 10's.
    Every test that Ive seen of the cobra has it running high 12's to low 13's on radials. Stock, regular non-Z06 corvettes are running mid 12's. There have been a couple of direct comparison tests between the 2, and the stock c6 is always faster. This is even with the new "launch control" feature that the cobras have...
    Its still an overpriced, overweight Ford with wannabe-retro 60's styling.
    Shelby needs to hurry up an die already. Hes like 90 or something.

    117? hummm so they probably put @ 420-440 to the ground stock... stock C6 Z06 traps 120-122 so I figure maybe a little more power, but a smooth torque curve with overall more torque than the GT500... most people with the vettes are running @ 12.00 @ 116-118 fastest stock Z06 ran 11.20s here's my post on that... http://forums.importatlanta.com/showthread.php?t=87423 I want a new Z06

    Whoa, way off. Nearly every C6 Z driver (including myself) gets into the 11's stock, and the guys who know what they're doing are running mid 11's. They trap 125 on average, but typically vary between 123 - 127.

    I got very low trap speeds in mine at SDR when I was stock, but I now believe I was lifting early (as I think I was lifting early the 2nd time I went there, but didn't figure it out until it was too late). There are also some crazy speeds that pop up on their boards sometimes.

    There are several Gt-500's running 11's with exhaust and tires. The vettes and the 500's are way overlooked especially the new Z-06, it hauls azz with very few mods.

    FYI, the fastest stock C6Z06 is 11.2 I believe. There was a guy (Ranger) who put Drag Radials on the back of a 100% stock C6Z06 and ran a 10.8.

    The new Shelby typically runs mid 12s as does a stock C5Z06.

    Anyways, carry on...

    I wish I could. It is a good ass video, I was standing right at the end. It was a photo finish between the skyline and the mustang. Skyline and vette both jumped, u can clearly see in the video, but the mustang was spinning badly with those bald ass tires.

    If they did the race over today, definately have my money on the mustang.

    Mikey,

    Do you happen to know that guy's screen name? I was wanting to get a peak at the video.

    Thanks.

    so the cobra is a 12 second car and mo's "stock" skyline should be a 13.5ish car. how is that a good race?
