As far as new 5.0 being better than Z around the track, that's expected The Z can probably hang in the corners, but then it will get out "muscled" in the straights. the v-6 mustang which will have similar power to the Z and similar weight will be more of a direct comparison.

a proper comparison would be a 5.0 vs a single or small twin turbo Z. both with Around 420 hp.
How do you figure? Turbo set up on a Z would be 40k or so...to the stangs 31. Throw 9k of aftermarket on the stang in suspension and power and see what happens still...

And yes I have sat in one. I'm 6ft 250 pounds and I LOVE how tiny it is.
