[Bill Barber]

do in no way condone street racing, But sometimes you gotta do what you gotta do

66 orig 289 shelby cobra was playing games on an open hwy this morning.

Blew his ass off with the stang car.

Nice guy, we pulled off at a starbucks, had coffee, darn nice car, worth maybe 500K

I remember in 66 they sold for 6 grand, that was for a 427.

I don't stand a chance

is there really that much difference btw your stang and the zo6? damn i know it's 0-60 in 3.7 and enough power to effortlessly melt the rear tires, but i figured your stang could give it a run for it's money. what are the specs on the stang?

 

[Bill Barber]

On a closed track road course I can run the ZOs headsup (all novice drivers with an instructor)

But straightline the ZO has 55 more H.P, 505 VS 450 and a 300lb wgt advantage.

Big Diff.
