You can cleary see that the Shelby lost ground during each shift.

A better test would have been to get both cars with a M6. Use the same driver on both cars and see which car he could get a better time with.

A ZL1 vs 11-12 Shelby is a drivers race, end of story. The two cars are very close to being equal when it comes to straight line performance.

Well its a good thing the ZL1 comes in Auto A lose is a lose ......... maybe they should make a auto Shelby??
