The clip heading was F-car against FORD GT, I dont understand because I didnt see an F-car in the video , or maybe that red spec about a 1/4 mile back was an F-car

When will they give up and stop embarrassing themselves

I would think it would be a little closer than that, the F-car driver must not be so good, or something is wrong with the F430.

I wouldn't. A pulley tune Ford GT and a stockish F430 are leagues apart in straight line speed.

Nice runs FikseGTS.

vs the Viper

my FGT was super hot, was late to the event, so I was just hot lapping it vs the F430, ZR1 and Viper at the end of the day...

I have compared my scud against the GT (Heffner tune,pulley,Accufab exhaust) for a 510HP 4.3L engine the scud will hold it's own with the .60mili second shifting. The GT however, is the faster car.

I am interested in how it fairs against the ZR1

Plan on taking both the GT and the ZR to the strip, then to a road course. My gut says the GT out performs at both locations

Good driver in a ZR1 can make it go real fast...
I bought my Viper from him (10.92 stock) and watch him in the ZR1. He has a GT and was around here as well IIRC...

I believe Jamie went either 10.5 or 10.6@135 mph with a pulley tune car.

Went back and checked. 10.6@135.27. Jamie is a super bad ass driver.
