7:19.63 Chevrolet Corvette C6 ZR1 (2012) Official time according to Wiki so Mustang still a good 20 seconds behind.
no.....the mustang's out in front of its competition, the camaro. again. by about 2 seconds. the vette is a whole different animal, and is in a class almost its own, along with the viper. it'd be nice to see ford put the gt40 back into production again though.
the whole point is that virtually EVERYONE would say "the shelby could never match the camaro, due to the solid rear axle." to that argument, i normally said that it was close enough in the turns(performance-wise) that it only had to stay close if there were any straight aways. i'd venture that the camaro squeak-slapped the shelby in most of the turns, 'specially the harder ones. then the shelby simply did what relatively light cars with nearly 700hp do.....it literally assassinated the blacktop on the straight aways. to be honest, on that track, this outcome really shouldn't be much of a surprise.
