    Default G8 GXP vs 2013 Shelby GT500

    Just a quick run with some friends... same race, two views. The GT500 just put down 620 rwhp... STOCK. I expected to get my ass handed to me and was happy to stay with him for at least a little while. My GXP has a TVS 2300 with exhaust at around 5-6 psi.

    I'd say get a better driver in the shelby honestly. I've seen a stock shelby walk hard an a 520whp c6. He started moving pretty hard towards end od run as well. I know they will do around 60 in 1st gear.

    Nice
    Change the pulleys. Get the boost up to 10 , 12 or 14 psi then run him again and laugh at him.
