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.

A turbo z is 40k? Woah. How much are you paying for the z, $25k?

To this fitness thread with this conversation but losing 20 pounds in 1.5 months is not the way you want to lose weight.

I agree 20lbs in 6 weeks is bad for the body.. unless you are like 400lbs.. then it's a drop in th bucket..

sorry 19% body fat.. not exactly track star.. but no obese.. I am sub 200lbs..I will hit 175 soon
