Turbo 5.0 (Coyote) vs ZR1

The new coyote is a beast, small amounts of boost and it already is putting close to 600 to the wheels no problem

I'm a Ford guy but there is no way a 3500# Mustang outran a ZR-1 from a roll with only 550 to the tire. Either he is sandbagging his numbers, or that is not a ZR-1.

Agreed. There's something off about this. It was a Z...see vid below...but I have a hard time believing that a heavier car with very similar RWHP figures won, too. I'm willing to be the Mustang had a sticky tire and the Z was in the right spot of 1st to send the traction control system into overdrive as it looks for grip. It also seemed like the Mustang had a little bit of a jump. Durability, prestige and looks-wise, I give it to the Vette all day long.
