That is nice. So far I've been running 93, haven't tried it on 87 or 89 yet. Not that it really matters because I'll getting an exclusively 93 octane tune in the near future.

Didn't Carroll Shelby even call the mustang a "secretaries car"

2010 Chevrolet Corvette Grand Sport vs. 2011 Ford Shelby GT500 ? Performance Car Road Test on RoadandTrack.com

Red370 09-10-2010 03:21 PM

Corvette: Pwned. That GT500 really is a modern marvel of technology, a car that weighs 4k should not handle like it does. Only reason the 0-60 is slightly slower is obviously the weight, and i'm pretty sure its a bitch to get to grip as well. Chevy better bring it with that Z28.

The Vette was still faster, but not by much. The Stang was significantly less expensive, which is why it won this comparo. But given this result, I'd like to see its raw stats against a base Corvette! I wonder if it would pull it. The Vette in the test was a GS!

if you were 700 lbs lighter you'd be faster too! I want to see the 1/4 mile ET's.

The Base Vette would prob do the same would it not??? The brand Sport doesn't add power.

They tied 0-100 (9.2 sec) which means the 'stang was gaining on the vette the whole time.
