Couple good examples of GT vs Sports car GT Car-Viper GTS or SRT-10 Coupe, Corvette Z06, Ferrari 360 Modena CS, Lamborghini Diablo, Lotus Exige, Ford GT Sports Car-Viper R/T-10 or SRT-10 Vert, Corvette Vert or Targa, Ferrari 360 Modena Spyder, Honda S2000, Mazda Miata I dont really know what you could consider the new Lamborghini Gallardo and Murcielago, since theyre AWD… but I assume GT Car as well. ---

But if I’m not mistaken, a lot of 60’s and 70’s 1/4mi ratings for Muscle Cars were not done on factory tires, in fact I know for certain a lot of them were rated on racing slicks, and long tube headers. ---

In reality, the 69 Camaro ZL1 would be No. 1, just changing the rear tires. It achieved it’s time crawling out of the hole until 30 mph, then running. This was an all aluminum 427 ci race engine. They made 69 engines, 67 went into Camaros, 2 went into vettes. The hp rating was way underrated. Also, the exhaust manifolds were very mismatched to the heads. They belonged to a different engine. These cars were shipped to dealers and sold to customers with a set of headers in the trunk. Put the viper tires on this car, it would be no. 1. ---

There are no cars on the page one list newer than 1997. The 03-04 cobra should be on there, as well as the z06 vettes. [Previous page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/50-fastest-muscle-cars/170434.md?page=1) [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/50-fastest-muscle-cars/170434.md?page=3)
