in that test the got the z06 to only do 11.7 but yet ppl have gotten to i believe 11.2 on stock tires, and 10.8s with just drag radials. hell i think but not a 100% sure but someone got a stock z06 into 10s.

The only defense to the Mustang I can think of is 4000 lbs vs. 3100 lb Vette.

Still not impressive at all. Especially for $82k.

Hell, when the 2003 Mach 1 Mustangs came out, they were squeezing 12.9s out of them with stickier tires. That KR has **240** more horsepower, and they only got a 12.8. The KR only weighs 4-500 lbs more than the Mach.

That’s part of the problem. They want to throw more power out there in their cars, but leaving everything else the same. It could have 1000 HP and still have the same half-ass suspension and tires.
