another question is how far are you willing to beat your car...? evolution was on their second or third clutch when they pulled the 11.8X's and i think they put in an upgraded clutch before those final pulls

I want one that can beat fords top dog.
i think the real argument for this comparison should be that the gt500 was codeveloped with the shelby team, that would be like developing a licensed production camaro with callaway. oh and theres still the price differences throw your own method of FI on the camaro

So I have been following the Mustang threads and have noticed that it is not clear what team you are batting for here. From what I can tell you are more favorable to the Ford side.

Seems if anyone has anything non-favorable to say about the 2011 Mustang you are pretty quick to respond with a rebuttal.
