Shelby's 2 position dampers vs. ZL1's MRC? The ZL1 will be extremely difficult for the 2013 shelby to beat on almost any road track. We've seen some road course times for the ZL1 and they are pretty damn good. So we know its not just hype or theoretical.
I actually do want to take a second to thank you for posting that.

I'm SO damned sick of seeing people talk about how the GT500 (and ZL1) for that matter can be made so much faster on the strip by buying a SS or a GT and modifying it.

Well, I must be crazy, but I would imagine the money saved on a GT and a SS could just as easily dominate the ZL1 and GT500 at the same price point on a track.
