 A 2011 GT with the track pack and a 4.10 gear swap is going to walk all over a lot of cars.

Hasn't anyone ever heard of stroking/boring a motor out? Using aluminum heads/block instead of iron? The new Mustang is going to be a SIGNIFICANT player against the 370Z, mark my words. And I'm a Chevy fanboy.

 No doubt it will be faster than a Z in a straight line, but it's still a front-heavy (in fact heavier) design with a live rear axle and could be pwnd on a "driver's track" with no significantly long straights. Should be king of the local dragstrip, though.
