Nov 22, 2009 - Dude the zr1 eats the gt, now the only thing ford has to beat a zr1 is the gtx1, which is a suped up gt, with a pulley change. Well you do the same with the zr1 and by by ford. Oh and i know theres going to be a dumb ass comment saying id like to see a pulley change on a aluminum block, well its proven it can take well over 1000hp

Nov 22, 2009 - just like he said ford didnt invent the first car he created the first auto assembly line so the cars he did make could be made alot faster.

moisespjr Says:

Nov 22, 2009 - not all people like corvettes you know. if someone buys a KR thats their choice because they like the styling and history.

illinisb Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - @jfl187 your a moron GTs arent quarter million, more like half that. probabaly 40k$ more than a zr1, but no where near 1/4mill

illinisb Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - @97Camaroowner im pretty sure the super charged fords dont have aluminum blocks. I think those were on 96-01 cobras only. I might be wrong though but im pretty sure all the super charged cobras have iron blocks. I KNOW the 03-04 have iron blocks, i dont see why the GT500s would be different

Nov 23, 2009 - 2010 Ford Mustang Cobra Jet Latest Ford Racing Mustang is One Mean Drag Machine November 02, 2009 Ford SVT claims the Cobra Jet will grab a quarter-mile in the 8-1/2-second range. Ford plans to build 50 per year (all 50 for this year are already spoken for) and sell them through Ford dealerships. The Mustang Cobra Jet stickers for $77,800 and can be optioned up to $93,800.

1vdn992 Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - So, if there was any question before as to who is the pony car king of the quarter mile that you can buy at your Ford Dealership, consider it answered! I saw a low quality video of this car on youtube and when the engine revs as it races down the track, it sounds as if the very gates of hell have been opended unleashing something very scary! Yess Siree!

Nov 23, 2009 - and another epic win for chevy.... lol the ford may have good quality parts but they all add up to the weight of a tank

HotShotVQ35 Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - the ford fails at everything...however the s/c does sound awesome

jfl187 Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - slow your roll there bud. the first one went for over 1/2 mill. the next couple hundred were getting 100k over msrp of 150k. so yes, they did cost 1/4 mill. now around 150k cause there are more than 6 thousand built. plus maint. cost are lots more than the vett.

Nov 23, 2009 - @1vdn992 i read that it was sadly mistaken they run 10.9 in the quarter im a ford man and for 80+ grand to run 10.9 on slicks that horrible my dad has spent about 5 grand in total of his 88gt its supercharged and runs 11.5 spinning tires out of the gate

rp94cobra Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - The mustang would win if it had wider tires those little 8 inch slippers can't hold the 3:73 gear ring and pinion it has all it needs is 10 inch slicks and its golden

businessjeff00 Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - thats just stupid, the only thing these 2 cars have in common is hp n torque.... A vet is a damn race car out of the box.. A stang is just a street car, oh yah almost forgot its a z06.. "the viper beater" is its damn nickname, and thats what its used for, whats ford race its mustangs in again?

nwonknu8 Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - i'd like to c one with the new mustang

k6k6k6Darkie Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - Damn you can get an Ariel Atom 3 for cheaper than the Cobra Jet, and it does more than run in a straight line AND is street legal. That Cobra Jet is such a bargain!!11!!!one1!

him89 Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - far as I know the cobra has one thing over the atom, a ROOF. LOL

k6k6k6Darkie Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - far as I know, I was comparing the atom to the Ford Mustang Cobrajet that 1vdn997 was mentioning. He calls it a bargain. Bargain my ass.

him89 Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - LOL=joke I was JOKING

Shrmnatr Says:

Nov 23, 2009 - eh they fixed it in the 2010. Still a mustang guy. Take a gt and boost it up.

1vdn992 Says:

Nov 24, 2009 - rpcobra dude, the KR's are detuned to 540HP, install the FRPP TVS Blower, Superchips Performance Program, Borla Exhaust, and a Blower Pulley and you've got 750 on PUMP GAS. People are buying them chevy should build some too, they like to copy Ford, maybe they will. WOW, you can take a worthless car and make it go fast, WHOOPEE, a beater that's fast. Not the kind of car you'd want to take out on Special Occasions.

1vdn992 Says:

Nov 24, 2009 - Yeah, k6dopey, and that 2 seat zo6 is some bargain. All 50 of the Super Cobra Jets are Sold, about 25 are going to collector's, and the rest will see race duty, stomping LS rat's i hope, and where is chevy's turn key drag car? IT's on the Scrap Pile. Chevy Gives a Whole New Meaning to the term Blown Motor's.
