Yeah, some people want a purpose built machine. I'd be OK with something that was really good at multiple things. Though it will likely be out of price point with ADM anyway.
Having a choice would be ideal. A good DCT would be my choice these days I think.
It's very likely team Camaro is looking to rain on the new GT500's parade like the 13 GT500 did to the 2012 ZL1. Another reason why the GT500s wait is frustrating and it needs to be something amazing at this point. Plus team Camaro has the advantage of the Corvette team getting a lot of the engine and powertrain work out of the way with the ZR1 Vette.LT5 750hp+ Camaro?

Wonder if it'll hit the road before the GT500
Of course, its nothing more than a rumor, but I kind of hope its true...........more 750+hp muscle cars can only be a good thing in my book!
Yeah, if I was in charge of that group, I'd develop the LT5 vehicle, sit on it, let the GT500 hit, then come back with a lighter car, more HP, proven platform/engine.
I doubt that happens. There is no way a Crapmaro will have more power than the vette.
He didn't say more, he implied using the LT5, which is sitting at 755HP - and people said the same thing about the ZL1, i.e., "No way the LT4 in the Camaro will be the same as the Vette", but then there it was, the _same_ LT4 specs as the one used in the Z06 - and it's even backed up by a superior 10-speed transmission and better cooling.
Or, Ford is wise to this super Camaro and is frantically pissing around trying to figure out how to one-up it before it's revealed, assuming the power number won't exceed that of the Corvette....
Having driven many FI cars especially the supercharged cars I found it very easy to put one of these HP Mustangs into a guard rail and personally found out the hard just how quickly things can happen just as this individual experienced.
Not true at all. The Z06 simply has too much power for its chassis. The GT350/R, that is not the case. The chassis can handle the power it has and a lot more. Similar cars such as the Viper ACR has been said to be very easy to drive on track and very friendly at the limit, and they have near enough the same outputs as the Z06. It simply doesn't put power down well enough. And you saying it isn't hard to drive hard, I don't mean to be rude, but you are by no means, not even remotely, pushing that car hard. When a racer as seasoned, well experienced, and skilled as Randy says its a very difficult car to drive at the limit, I think its safe to say that's more accurate than the average joe "pushing" it along a backroad.
