Unlike GM, Ford already created a mess by adding the 350 into the mix. That put another car inbetween the GT and the GT500, which just increases cost. I don't think you'll see a cheap GT500...or you will see a Hellcat competitor designed for straight line only...

They haven't compared any of the most recent Corvettes to the ACR in a few years now. In fact, they were comparing the ZL1 1LE to the ACR just recently. GM has been targeting Porsche and Lamborghini for years now with their level of performance.
And the only benchmark that the ZR1 will be compared to will be a sub 7 min Ring time..
