How much power are you making? M6 or A6? Stock tires or DR's? Assuming that ECS tuned the car since you're in NJ, you shouldn't have too much trouble with your friend's Shelby. If you don't have meth I would suggest you take a trip to ECS and have them add it and retune

not sure how much I make. I'm figuring at least 540ish. A6 car on stock size for me (stock for him as well)
With the meth they should be able to tune more aggressively correct

the 13 gt500's are over 662hp... I know they are heavy buy still they would take a mostly stock vette every time

LOL the 13 gt500 needs a new driver then! There is no way you are running below an 11.6/11.7 with a stall and tune unless your car is a track car only gutted slicks etc

My car is stock other than a stall and drag radials. Put down an earth shattering 365 whp lol.

You should post up a slip in the drag racing section i think you would be one of the fastest almost stock cars there

I'd say you should have no issues with you friends car.

You should be able to cover the Ford. Drag radials should be a given. It's really hard to run at that power level on regular street tires. If you don't dust him, let us know where you are running and I'm sure there are many Vettes here that would enjoy smoking a GT 500:-)

My 10 GS A6 with just the ECS kit made 540 to the tire and went mid/low 11s on factory tires, but was very tricky to drive once the power came on. With headers, catted X pipe and meth we got up to 630 and went 10.60s at 135 on 19in MT drag radials. Now unrestricted with a fuel system it puts down 725 and should easily be in the 9s as long as it hooks.
