I am fixing to buy me a Shelby here in the next week or too and I'm going to mod it right away. Just curious how much power the stock clutch can handle. It seems a lot of guys are running 700rwhp with no problems so far.
Ran a buddies c5z the other night. Stock block with vortech blower. I think he says it makes around 630rwhp. I really was surprised I was able to hang with him since he has a lot more power and probably 200 lbs less weight as well.

Ran a buddies 2011 gt500 the other night. He was nice enough to run me on his 93 tune. He has 2.9 whipple, headers, and other mods making around 750rwhp.

Looking for some friendly runs with somebody with a Terminator or newer model Shelby. Bought a 427 convertible last summer and curious to see how well it would do since it weighs roughly 200 more pounds than a Z06.
Based on previous races in my old baby cam'd Z06, i figure a 580rwhp car...
I was hoping to get into a new Shelby but every dealer around here was charging 5-10 grand for every 13 GT500 they had and wouldn't give me what i wanted out of my CTS-V.
My 2nd choice was to get a used ZR1, but saw this in the warehouse and fell in love with it as soon as I saw it. GM...
I am a big car guy who likes all sorts of cars. I am a big GM guy but I tell you I might come to the dark side soon and pick up a 13 GT500.
Anyhow, I am not here to stir the pot or anything, just looking to see if anybody want to have some street fun during MW.
Hit me up if you're...
Wondering if anybody has went with a bigger tire in the back to get more traction to the ground with all that horsepower that is available on these cars.
285s isn't going to cut it IMO. Need to have some fat 325s on the back at least if they can fit
Finally was able to meet up with some Cobra peeps from my local board today and make the long trip out to Mexico.
You can't hear it over the blower whine, but I was spinning all through 2nd and some of 3rd. Stock runcraps FTL... Time to invest in some new tires it seems..

Just wanted to get some real world numbers here on the cobra i raced last weekend. I was told it had a kenne bell on it running 23 lbs. On KB's website, it said a stock engine and KB setup at 23 lbs is making around 615rwhp.
