Great kill! Sounds like you have quite the car. :beer:

Funny story about a ZL1- Monday I'm driving home on the Loop 303 outside of Phoenix. (Think out in the middle of nowhere. Wide-open Autobahn. All brand new concrete and smooth as glass). A brand new red ZL1 passes me, still with the temp tags on it. And what am I driving? My 4x4 F350 dually! I'm on my 2nd new GT500 in the past year, and this is the best road in town we could possibly have been on to run 'em. Unbelievable! I texted my buddy who also owns a '13 Shelby and he replies: "you should have run him anyway- you probably could've taken him!" Oh well, the fact that he had temps and turned off at an exit near mine just means I need to start driving the Shelby on that route every day back from work until I see him again!

Sorry OP- Didn't mean to jack your thread!

The same thing happens to me way more often then I care to admit. If I'm out in the fox or the coyote, I don't see anyone worth racing, ever. If I'm out in my wifes car I'll see fast cars all day long.

Nice kill OP :bowdown:

Man i love the boost !! I always had nitrous on my cars

 

[G Wrecks]

What color was the ZL1? I guarantee it had a new upper pulley along with the full exhaust. Maybe even a cam

 

[3 oh 2]

Black on black zl1

I ran a 705rwhp ZL1 at one of the local 1/2 mile races. I put bus length on him, kinda felt sorry for the guy.He was so far back i could see him out my rear view mirror. He ended up being a really nice guy.

I bet this is it. I used to work for LMR in sales and marketing and I filmed all of the dyno videos. If I remember correctly, this is the only black ZL1 we ever tuned. This car came to LMR with work previously done, and he was unhappy with the power, so we changed the cam, and machined his cylinder heads. Since these cars are supercharged, the cam didn't have a very aggressive LSA, so it isn't that noticeable at idle.
