Damn, I want that blown Mark VIII!

You're just hoping the GT500 driver misses a shift or bogs the launch.  That's your only hope.  Odds are 50/50 in your favor on the street due to poor traction.

Don't Shelbys have launch control?

The one I raced had a wicked holeshot, NO AWD advantage, LOL!

Correct me if I'm wrong but the 5.8L GT500 is the most powerful production V8 at 662hp. Not only does he have more power but he is lighter too. Probably the only way to beat him in a 1/4mile is to have 550+awhp and launch faster than he does.

Edit: forgot about the Hellcat at 707hp. GT500 is #2 most powerful production V8

It doesnt matter what your 60' is, a 13 GT500 will real you in like youre sitting still and run past you. period.
There is no SHO that will beat a 13+ GT500.

2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
