Maybe (and this is just me), but if I owned a stock C6 I wouldn't be butt hurt over a car that had a s/c thrown on it beating me.

I know at around 450whp on my stock motor/Vortech combo I was having no problem beating LS2 Corvettes.
LOL I'd hope you wouldn't have any problems with an extra 110 to the wheels over the Vette.
Sure, and it's only worth mentioning because even with the extra whp, they are still lighter. Just trying to give him somekind of barometer. Oh, and it keeps some Vette owners awake at night knowing there are some Mustangs out there just sticking it to them. Hopefully their sense of humor can remain intact.
Me and a few friends went to the track a few years back, and watched a couple of bolwn/built Foxes go at it. The slowest pass of in that competion was 11.04 or so..
We all lost sleep that night thinking about how fast they were..
It still gives me nightmares to this day
Does anyone have sleeping pills?

lol.. yes those are the curb weights... only way to fairly compare...
I know my Cobra beat the pants off of a couple of LS2s.. and that was when I was 480rwhp... i mean - not even close.

It depends what you race to. If its 100 or over Im gona give it to the Vette, anything under 100 and you oughtta take it

I would hope so...140rwhp advantage kinda helps huh?
You would be a better match for a stock Z

These comparo's are a great measuring stick to a stock C6 thats going to give the OP a good idea of his chances......450whp GT and a 480whp Cobra..
It's more like overkill to me......But the saying goes, The modded Mustang will hit the 1/4 quicker, but the stock C6 will drop the panties quicker...

I'd like to know what the car ran with 480rwhp....I've raced a few 460-480rwhp Cobras when I was only 390rwhp and beat the **** out of them....I mean....not even close.

Thats a good one - I don't know my pants come off pretty quick... If anything we will just run from a dig and maybe a roll. But if from a roll it would be like 30 mph so I am just about in my boost. Either way we won't go crazy maybe to 80-90 mph on an open stretch of road....

I know you ain't talkin...
Since we're all posting useless information, I beat a bolt on/pullied Cobra when I was stock...I mean..it wasn't even close.

I know a guy with 383rwhp in his Z06 that went 11.3 @ 123mph... what were you running with 390rwhp ? Pretty close?
