There's always potential left in an engine. It doesn't mean GM is going to use some of it for the ZL1.

I should have been more clear. When the Camaro and Corvette share an engine, the Camaro will not make more power.

I like the blue color and stripe scheme. I just can't get over the body shell, as it still needs work.
It looks like it will be very competitive on the track.

Btw you never responded to the issues bout the lil 1.7 blower on a track car. You think that was a good idea or are you gonna bring up another "turbo" car to defend a "blower" car?

This is going to be the most capable pony car on the track. The z/28 has better brakes no doubt but this gt350r is going to out perform the z/28. Never thought I would see the day when a factory mustang would get 305/315 tires on it. Impressive and its definitely the car ford had to make because of the z/28. Jamal Hemeedi from ford said it was a combination of 911 and z/28 times they wanted to go after but I'm sure it's top goal was to surpass the z/28 and worry about Porsche numbers after.

And your taunt that the next-Gen HP Camaro will NOT be able to handle an equally unannounced GT500 leads me to believe your special tarot cards, and the psychic insight they provide you, should be shared. Care to? I'm not calling you out. I just REALLY hope you'll share these FACTS with us all. |

Face it, the GT350s are now restricted by a minimalist transmission to "factory power - tuners need not apply". |

Never ONCE did I ever say it won't be able to "handle equally" so please don't make up things to strengthen your argument. As for the next gt500 I'm just going off the past and how Ford has responded. If I'm wrong on all of these then kudos to Chevy but they haven't done so well lately.

A transmissions torque capacity is at a given gross vehicle weight rating. In the case of the Tremec 3160 it is at 4700 pounds gross vehicle weight. Mkay? Mkay, glad you learned something today. |

Well the brake arguement is over as the GT350R has an option for Carbon brakes and the wheels are CF options. Got to give Ford credit again asmthey are laying it all out and letting customers build it a la carte the way we want it?.
