GM seems to have done a knockout job with their c5 ZL1... Just imagine if that 580 hp and MR suspension wasn't tugging around 4,000+ pounds!
A lightened camaro running zo6 times in a few years... Wow.. Same with the mustang on a lighter chasis...
Decrease the weight, maintain the power, increase mileage...

....from Ford itself about the brakes on the "base" 2013 GT500....
"Brembo braking system: A new Brembo brake system offers drivers enhanced stopping power to help keep their car under control, both on the road and the track. New six-piston calipers in front along with larger front and rear rotors help improve brake fade. New brake pads that are more aggressive also help the car achieve high deceleration and further robustness for more driver confidence"
