It is a high dollar road car and no one wants to throw slicks on it to see what it can do.

It's not geared for the 1/4 mile. It has no low end torque. A feminine powerband some might say. It's ET is going to suffer.
Someone did throw slicks on it when it came out. A reputable shop at that. It's not faster than an SS in the 1/4. You are behind the times or conveniently ignorant for being a mustang fan.
Everything I stated was true. Accept it or not I don't care. GT and SS trap speeds are compared same day several times now. ~4 mph difference on average. Nothing to argue.
As was stated an average run in 2000-3000 DA in an SS is equal to a hero time for an s550. Not even close. And the data is only going to pile on this coming fall. Just wait my friend.
Btw the SS has been 11s stock in positive DA with several others very close that only needed a better 60. At sea level in good conditions it's a 116 trap car no doubt. GM even rates the car at 116 trap.
