Found this over at Corvette Forum. Please check out post #12.....pics 6 & 8. Is this all they could do with 650 HP?

are these official release pics? i find it weird that a car that is advertised as being able to go 200+ mph has a speedo that only goes to 160

Wondering · 11-22-2011, 07:23 AM

They are pics from Ford. Good catch on the speedo. Dunno why they would post every other pic of the 2013 sans the speedometer.

maybe they put a governor in it?

I don't know much about the mustangs but this is what one person said in that thread.

"And I'd bet dollars to doughnuts that's a GT cluster anyway, that's the script that GTs have used lately, the GT500s has been completely different, and will probably have a 200 mph speedo. Plus it's only a 4 gauge cluster, GT500s have 6 gauges. The 4 gauge cluster is only available on base GTs and Boss 302s."

I wouldn't read too much into those times.

That's pretty obviously a pic from the GT or Boss 302, not the GT500. The dead give away is the 160mph speedo.

With the 7K redline, and 160mph speedo, it's a GT.

Sorry guys for the misinformation....please let this die on the vine.

archtaan · 11-22-2011, 08:31 AM

I was guessing the numbers on the screen were simulated for a GT like you see in a phone commercial. The reason I assume that is because the odometer shows 12345.6 miles and I dont see a boost gauge.

You want it to die? Cause I can make it die.

If a GT run a 12.6 I would hate to see what the GT500 is going to run. If they can make that car hook it will be wicked. I just doubt that they will.

Jcobra · 11-22-2011, 10:09 AM

My buddy ran his 2011 gt 12.6@113 with DR only.

TCAT · 11-22-2011, 10:34 AM

Something's off with the display in between the gauges in both pics. One looks like a GR or Boss (as the speedo is 160mph), and the other is likely the GT500 (has SVT logo and 220mph speedo). That's not the weird part though. What is strange is that both pictures (supposed to be different cars) have the exact same mileage on it of 12,345.6

last year, I saw a 2011 GT500 with just DRs, run in the high 11's with an inexperienced driver.

If the GT can run 12.6, what time will the Boss and Gt500 run?
Maybe A.O should challenge the GT or Boss to another race with the SS.

They're probably just demo shots or renderings, not actual mileage readouts. If it doesn't say, "SVT" in the tach it's not the gt500.

And that is a big "IF". The S197 is plagued with traction issues. They are going to have a hell of a time trying to plant 650hp.

There is no reason they can't figure this out .. if they don't there will be some mad people .. at the track it wouldn't matter anyways .. they throw on some slicks and they are good to go ..

Yeah, I agree. That's why I brought it up. It looks photoshopped for sure. It would be aweful rare to see two cars with identical mileage to the tenth of a mile, lol.
