So far, there has been only a handfull of documented runs (at the dragstrip)...ranging from 11.8X to 12.3. Nearly every camaro fan on here dismisses the 11.8X and 12.0X runs and jumps straight to the 12.3 and new edmunds 12.6. Why is that do you think?

Me personally, I've never dismissed any times that the Mustang guys have laid down. I'm actually impressed. It's the ledge you fanboys go to is what I personally laugh about. I mean seriously? A tune and tire and the GT is now a Zl1 killer?
And don't dismiss we are in Dec. It is HP weather. Just the past 2 weeks, 2 members laid down 11.8's in worse DA so. To me, the SS and GT are about on par with each other. I don't care, I have a Zl1. It's just the fkn nausea that comes from the Mustang side claiming this is the new holy grail. And honestly, it's just a $50k Camaro SS badged as a Mustang. They are basically the same car. Performance wise. With the Maro edging is slightly.
And the reason I and Blaqwhole know about the comments is because of my video I posted of me ripping 116 mph (I used that as the trap speed marker in Lunds run that he did in 12.2). But, I did it in 10.46 w/no prep and a roll in throttle, on the street, plus I hit rev limiter twice as I was using the paddles. So, I was showing the comparison that is was going to be impossible for a tune and tire only GT to run the Zl1 down.
It was on Utube for prob 1 hr and the fanboys came out in droves. I prob had 100 comments at least calling bs. When, It was video'd!!!!!!!!! So, I called out all Tuned and Tire '18 GT's to come get some. Since, after all, they were claiming a tune and tire only will run a Zl1.
But anyhow, it's funny to us tbhy. It's all in good fun. It's just nauseating to read some of the shit the 'other' forum believe.
They took that one 12.2 run and that was the gold standard. Out the box. It's gonna be a 12.2 car, so they figured with a tune and tire, it's gonna run low 11's, high 10's. haha. I mean, comical.
