Let's see the Zenvo...... :)

[@makeinjhonson5046]

Zenvo not good at launching. I think.

[@slowguystv3889]

You guys should link up for drag racing some of shmee150 cars from his garage

[@alexluke84]

Yes yes 😎

[@Andy8x]

He will never take the Zenvo on track. In one of his other comments here, he alludes to the idea that he cannot afford the insurance to do so, or at least won't pay to do so. Also, for the same reason, I hope he does not purchase another Zenvo. I'd much rather see cars on the channel he will use properly, rather than rolling garage queens.

[@randyphillips8803]

SF90 and the Zenvo would be awesome to see!

[@kennethluff4736]

SF90 even with less HP would win.

[@Andy8x]

@@gen1c8rs88 Very atiff rear suspension and a much less advanced launch system than then the SF90. And keep in mind that there are no drag radials available, so prep will only do so much.

[@alexluke84]

New Corvette ZR1 with 1064hp is a new hypercar in a class...a thing to have

[@eichler721]

I would put money on the SF90 Stradale beating it on the street in a drag race and even on a dragstrip. Track the Corvette will most likely win so no it's not a hypercar. The Valkarie, AMG One, Jesko, Nevera and others are hypercars. If that ZR1 came out when the Holy Trinity came out it would be one for sure. However times have moved on.

[@Andy8x]

It is not a hypercar. And have you seen the weight of that barge? It will probably be close to or above 4000 lbs on the road.

[@chequeredflag16]

Actually I don't think it'll be that much faster on a straight line than 296. On street 296 might even win. I saw the way Z1 was climbing till 210mph and it felt quite slow. One 296 easily passed 210 on Autobahn. Maybe it's the aero on Z1 but 296 is no joke

[@rustler08]

It's because drag racing is harsh on the cars due to the drivetrain shock.

[@Brozay401]

@@spitymaeh that's if you drag race the same car over and over again. Taking it to santa pod once and doing 2 or 3 runs won't put any of shmees cars in undue danger

I saw a guy run 10.60 @ 132 in his GT500 at the Texas Motorplex a few years ago. It was stock. He just took time to get his car prepped for the runs.

[@jkrych26]

I think a 10.3-10.4 at 134 is the record for a bone stock GT500 (s550 body style) but the Ferrari's trap speed is like 147-149 which is absurd, with a better 60 foot, that is a 9.3-9.4 1/4 mile

I think the SLS Black Series and the Shelby GT500 would be a much closer drag race. Yeah, that's a race I'd like to see.

[@dimovk1995]

[@drummerdoingstuff5020]

[@chriszaiser]

Honestly I'd be interested to see some Mickey Thompson drag radials on the back of the Mustang. You would think with some suspension tweaks and other few adjustments that Mustang should pick the front wheels right off the ground

Not saying it cannot be the case under some specific conditions as they are close, but I personally have not seen it and others I speak to, haven't either.

Ford GT vs 675LT (similar power, vastly different price point) 3. 296 GTS vs the Zenvo (a bonkers race for sure) 4. The modified 1M vs the Focus RS Heritage (can the N54 fend off a much more modern AWD hot hatch?)

The GT500 is a fantastic performance Mustang for the dragstrip which I recommend changing to slicks after seeing and hearing how much your GT500 was spinning during your launch and removing the rear wing at the drag strip. It's also a Strong track car when using that wing on the track to improve down force. Considering the pricing difference The GT500 is a lot of car for the money. With some mods to the your Shelby. You can push its horsepower over 900 using tuners like Palm Beach Dyno. In His current U-Tube video. He was discussing tuning Mustangs that were being shipped to Europe.
