Why do you think Vettes with lower rated horsepower than the Shelby GT500 win?..because they are more aerodynamic and weigh a lot LESS...it's all about the weight...I had a buddy who put a 327 cu engine in a '74 Vega...it was a light car and had lots of HP and he used to kill all the Chevelles, Cuda's, Shelby's etc.,way back when...it's all about the weight (gearing helps a lot, too).
