Now who is making excuse, HMMMMM.:nono::rollseyes:fart::sleeping:
My Cushman Minute Miser has better turn in than a Shelby!
(Look that one up, you were probably not born when they were made)
No excuses just fact. Again Nobody forced Ford to put a poor suspension design in the car.
You all so so easy to get you undee's in a knot, it's so entertaining.
better than Youtube.
Go posih your shrine to carrol Shelby, I know you have one, right?
You guys will never change:banana:
That thing handles like a dump truck. Are you guys and Ford that proud that this car that is somewhat lighter than a ZL1 and has 82 more horsepower is 1 second faster than the ZL1 over roughly 8 miles of track.:read: Maybe that's why Ford never "Officially" posted anything!:loser:
Moreover, that dump truck is 3 seconds slower than a car roughly the same weight (the Z/28) and 157 horsepower less! WTF "Rough calculation" and your added lap timer that starts over 3 minutes into the video and you are commenting about a possible 4/10 of a second on Chevy's part?.:bash: Really! :whine::whine::cryying::cryying:
You all started using the President's Press secretary, right.
So the ZL1 makes 82 Horsepower less with 1 camshaft, (For you Shelby guys that's 3 cams less than yours) and only 16 valves (once again 16 less than a Shelby) in a smaller engine package with less boost. And Chevy engineers can get it to pass emmisions with one cam. A cam change can be made without taking the intake off, and I only need to buy one cam... I am good with that. Oh though in Ford's favor the ZL1 is 8/10ths of a liter bigger!:beer:
It's not even winter yet and you all have cabin fever.
How about that new Mustang that's coming.. Looks just Fusion or anything else Ford makes now.
Now what I want to know is which engineer decided it was a Good idea for the Focus engine harmonic balance not to have a key way in it and the crank shaft. Yeah that's right, the balancer times the cams some when balancer moves, slips, because of a minor collision or any other reason, BANG you need an engine because the valves hit the pistons.:loser:
Will that engineer stand up!
:dancenana:

Here is the Thing you guys are missing.
it does not matter what times are at the ring. they are all on differnt days and different drivers. The Z/28 time wasin the friggin' rain toward the end, you idiots never mentioned that
There is no excuse, I would walk before I drive another Ford, I had nothing but Fords, at one time. Then I changed.
You guys must race dyno sheets too!
My mission was just to see how many of you were dumb enough to reply.. The counter is still running, Like Ford's bank account for denying warranty claims.:loser:
Read the trade journals for the facts, Oh by the way, Goverment Motors paid back the loan early with interest. So They were a good investment!!:bowdown:

See you at the track!!
My 87 year old mother in law can drive in a straight line.
But since you brought up straight lines
I know of two worked over Supercharged Mustangs (a Saleen and a Roush) that got an ass whippin' by a ZL1. Both had more cams, boost and valves than me.op: Hold on, I need to get another Coke for the rest of my popcorn.
Why do you think they even pushed the Z28 to market so quick?
O

you're delusional...
full bolt on 5.0's are turning in better straight line performance than the ZL1.
FI 5.0's are laying waste to even the most highly built ZL1's that the world has ever seen.
the ZL1 is a disappointment and your arguments are weak!
the GT500's are, in every way, a better car.
