I absolutly hate car and driver!!! they have got to be the most gm biased magazine out. Im sorry, but i just dont buy that the shelby clocked in the same quarter mile times as the 03-04 cobra. Anyone else fine this to be very odd? But then again, any gm lover has the corvette on that almighty untouchable pedestal that can never be touched. anyways, rant over :rant:

My friends dad has an 03 Z06 vette, thing is definetly "on a pedestal" won't even start usually because it just sits. A real waste of a car. The car and driver driver probably sucked at driving if he couldn't beat the 03 drivers time.

Ya, I read that article, I thought the same thing.
They've always been bow tie lovers, rediculous.
who knows, they probably got bank to rig the test.

Thinking on the ease of mod'ing the 03, you will be able to pulley and tune
the shelby and can probably get 150 more HP from it!
but oh ya, it's too heavy.

Considering it's the same powerplant as the ford GT, that's a bunch of BS.
I saw a vid of a pulley'd GT racing a WRX, hole E shit! not even same league.
its called "Joe's GT" if anyone can find it.
