Retarded is right - let's see you hook that thing up under full throttle.

well it depends on wut kinda race were talking here...


drag race, the gt500 would kill it easily. on the oval track, i think it would be close cuz the gt500 would keep reeling the r in on the straights

IMO it just depends on what kinda race were talking about because each one is made for something different...

Another vote for the terminator. How did it not make the poll? The 00 has the most bad ass motor ford has ever built, but the termi has a blower. The super snake is another contender, but all the new ones are too heavy.

+1 Even just the 605 HP Snake has much trouble hooking up and for an extra 105 HP, tires, gears, and suspension upgrades, I was not very impressed.

I don't believe the question was "on a budget" or "if one can be purchased". It was which one is better. The debate with his friend was between a 00 R and a GT500. Now I'm not doggin' the termi, they are great cars, but one would get ripped apart by a 00 R if they were both stock.

out of those 2 a GT500. look at the possibilities. 800RWHP with a simple blwoer swap, and bolt ons.

i would also rank the terminator right there beside the GT500. both are amazing cars, wtih amazing possibilities. yeah, the GT500 may weight more, but that extra motor size makes up for it.

deffinitly cobra R
its rare
much more IMPRESSIVE
the GT-500 is just sad to hear it has 500hp and runs the same times as the terminator
i believe the cobra is still a 12 second 1/4 car
on a road course theres no a chance that the gt-500 is sticking with the cobra R

lol extra motor size
lets see both are 5.4L


the GT-500 might make 800rwhp with a SERIOUS blower swap no simple...it'd have to be a badass KB with a small pulley and plenty tuning and it'd run what...what a 600rwhp mustang GT or cobra runs in the 1/4


gt-500 for the lose

i think the 428 SOHC cam is more desired over the 5.4L small block

no they arent because i was talking about terminator VS. GT500 one = 4.6, one = 5.4

800RWHP would take a 2.8H on moderate boost, thats about all that stock motor is good for, build the bottom end, and do a whipple 3.4, and it could quite possibly make 1000RWHP.

look at it this way, with about 550RWHP which is a pulley swap, and tune, and some suspension mods, and evolutions GT500 was mid 10's. then a little shot, and some more mods, and it was 9.99 on the 100% stock eaton.

not sure what they're running with 800RWHP. but theres no doubt a 3.4L whipple one 25-30PSI 900-100RWHP would run 8's.

the things are badass.

Plus, how much weight reduction do you need to do? 4000 lbs is SUV territory. You're gonna have to pull a lot of soundproofing out to get this thing down to fighting weight.

Meanwhile, to make the Cobra R take out the shelby in the straights, all you need is a little boost. If we're talking drag racing, you could either hit it with a 150 shot of NOS, or if you don't feel like cheater-juice, you could just get some boost going.

Or you could just get a notch-back Fox-body, drop in a terminator and full race suspension, and beat 'em both at both of their games
Wow $70k for a 07 Shelby u must live in a inflated area brotha, because 07 shelbys can be had out here for maybe $50k and in Nevada for abour $45k so im just curious, and my opinion is if u want RAW power with that Instant Umphhh than the GT500 would be it , if you want Power W/Handling then the Cobra R would be it i dont know much about the terminator so cant say much there!
