The ZL1 has a direct competitor and with the LS9 in it, I know that Ford will have no answer for it. A 650hp factory ZL1 would wipe the snot out of the GT500. It already has better brakes, better steering and better looks(personal opinion) it just needs more as Scotty would say "I don't have the power Captain"

A ZL1 with an LS9 would be an awesome car and would dominate in many ways. It would be super car status for sure. However in a straight line, drag strip setting it would still not beat the GT500 whose engine is more powerful than an LS9. I love both cars and Shelby has left a legacy, its not the best rounded car for sure, and it has its faults but the GT500 is the best factory drag car, and will be for some time.....
