My god, what has happened to pony cars? Why would anyone take a Camaro/Challenger/Mustang and try to make it a track weapon? Sure you could. But why?
Challenge accepted.

Pony cars pretending to be sports cars. Enough already. It's pointless. There's nothing they could do to a Mustang to make it outperform a Vette/Viper around a road course. Nothing. Why? Because those cars were designed from the ground up for road course / track use.
And yes, 700bhp is a fail for such a long wait for the GT500. Do you think Dodge is going to stop at 707?
Also what will the GT500 cost? And lastly...where is it? All this speculating gets old.
We were in dire need of a new resident dummy.
Welcome!
Literally the first thing I thought of when I read that.He's clearly never heard of the Trans Am series. Muscle cars have been on road courses for a while now. And the ZL1 1LE is a beast around a road course.
Why does it need to be 100HP more? At this point, I think it's safe to say that we won't see another GT500 until the S650 (or whatever they call it) chassis. What if it comes in at <3600 lbs and 650HP?

Yet the next GT500 has to have 800++HP, only be good in a straight line, and it better not cost a penny over 30 grand??? What the hell is wrong with some of y'all??
For the first 5 laps.He's clearly never heard of the Trans Am series. Muscle cars have been on road courses for a while now. And the ZL1 1LE is a beast around a road course.
For the first 5 laps.
I don’t need to. It’s in print from one of the major magazines. I believe car and driver. Brakes don’t last more than 5 hard laps.You keep telling yourself that....

Cute little car that’s rated better than the 120k Porsche gt4.Yes it needs to have 800, its not a ****ing GT350 we already have that cute little car. And no one said 30 grand, but it damn sure better not cost 100K, its a mustang not a freaking ferrari. Get real.
“At the Jacques Villeneuve–designed Area 27 in British Columbia, we ran 40-plus laps of the 3.0-mile circuit. It was the brakes—the iron-rotor units carry over from the regular ZL1 except for the ABS calibration—rather than spent tires that prevented us from turning more than five hot laps at a time; the pedal gets a little long on the fifth lap.”Lets see a link...
Going to have to start another thread to get to the bottom of this question.What the hell is wrong with some of y'all??
I doubt anyone of us can complain about how many badass options exist today.
