Z28
I haven't read any current mags. Will Ford come out with a model to compete with the LS7 Z28 coming out? I guess the Boss 302 would be the closest fit right now but I doubt it will be able to manage with what Chevy has stuffed and removed from that Camaro.

The Boss LS would probably hold with the Z28, honestly.
I just find it sad and funny that Chevy waited until after the Boss ended production to create an equal track car to the Boss. Of course you will be the best when you are uncontested. Lol

That Z28 is a 50k dollar car w/o ac. With options you could get into a shelby for the same price. Plus they put 315's on all 4 corners of that car so it better stick. My question is this....out of all the stangs, camaros sold how many actually track.

Are we talking stock? If we're talking modded that's just useless as I know some Civics that would crush 5.0s.

Can't confirm but I could swear I saw a $50k pricetag on the last Boss I saw at Westway. Besides that, all of that stuff costs. It's like when MT compared the 5.0 to the 1LE and the 1LE came out on top in (IIRC) everything but comfort but it also had larger tires and brakes.

A $50k Boss? They're idiots. A fully optioned, non-LS Boss should be $47k or so. I think an LS may reach above $50k.
MT comparing the 1LE to the Track Pack 5.0 was somewhat of an even matchup, but still not entirely fair.

An LS with the dealer mark ups were easily $50k

With dealer mark ups. Z28 is within range of a Shelby price wise and that's enough for me.

Maybe one day GM will quit playing catch-up with Ford, too.
There may be something about the new Z28 over at www.dfwcamaros.com. Not sure.

According to MT, Ford supplied the exact car because they thought it was fair.

Wasn't the LS1 F-body faster than all the non-blown Mustangs for awhile?

Yes 500hp is alot. However, when you can buy a Base Shelby for damn near the same price it becomes a no brainer.
