Fords Answer for the ZR1 Camaro....

[cjriojas]

The new camaros and mustangs are not meant for straight line racing only anymore. external influence and competition forces GM and Ford to explore all avenues of performance. straight line racing only gets you so far now-a-days.

[chevrolet all the way]

that guy ^^^ just hit it. cars are not built just for drag racing any more.yes it is important to have straight line speed but dead hook from a dig is not going to be what 99% of people who buy these cars will buy off of. im sure plenty will take them to the drag strip but they will be on street tires having a good night anyways not worried about being the fastest. a nice riding and handling car goes a long ways in sales now.


also i am not a big fan of the new camaro. although it is a great looking car its massive and not near as good looking as the mustang... and look at my screen name


oh and whoever said there is more aftermarket for the camaro over the coyote platform... just wait... they will be BIG

its funny my favorite body style stang, looks nothing like all teh other designs, the fox body, if its not a fox i dont like it. the new mustangs look like theyre trying to hard to look like a muscle car.

Fox body mustang was the first car I ever did a burnout/donut in. Uncle used to have a badass 5.0 with a manual...and a convertable ...and he let me drive it one summer when we went out there...I think I was 13 or 14 maybe. Went down to the local mall, on top of the parking garage where no one was parked and he was like think this thing can spin the tires? We went back the next year and the tire marks were still on the concrete

That's because it IS a muscle car you re re lol

I'm a diehard chevy fan til the day I die. I'll never own a mustang. NEVER as much as the temptation arrises every so often, I won't do it. They are one of the best platforms to start with on a drag racing application...Cheap parts available everywhere to make it go fast...BUT IT'S STILL A MUSTANG

However, the new mustangs make the camaro look awful. We have a guy that rolls with us every now and then. Bone stock 5.0 with a 100shot and slicks...runs 7.30s all day long in the 1/8th...The camaro just won't do that...I like the way the camaro's look in white, the interior is awesome, but they're giant heavy turds

im gonna hafta disagree on the muscle car, considering that when the mustang was produced it was designed for women, and when it rolled off the line, ford even said it looked like a girl car. Sorry but thats it for me, no longer muscle car status, muscle cars are novas, challengers, chargers, old camaros, to me the production muscle car is dead, i think muscle car and i think of metal, chrome bumpers, metal and vinyl/leather interior and oil on the engine pan

LOL. I didnt know that they were designed for women

[Botlfed]

I'll give you that, but then camaros aren't muscle cars either since they were created to compete in the pony car class originated by the mustang

Muscle cars; nova's, chevelle's, charger's, gto's, 442's, etc etc...fullsize cars with badass v8's

ill agree with that.

LOL. I didnt know that they were designed for women

yes they were, its a fact

They might be but look at the cost difference for aftermarket parts.
