2013 GT500's Certified Power #'s

I stumbled across this this morning on the net. I don't think anyone has posted this yet. This thing is just getting more and more insane. Originally they said 650/600 but this is even better.

The new 2013 model of Shelby GT500 comes with a 5.8L V8 that generates 662 hp and 631 lb/ft torque.

I like how the tq number is closer to the hp number

This thing is going to be a beast. I'm not sure how well it will hook up though. Hopefully the launch control works and they put some decent rubber on it.

And with that kind of power, probably a dozen extra pairs as well. That should last me the first couple of months until the novelty wears off.
