Sounds like Hennessey sent a ringer.....559 @ the wheels, when they claim 562 flywheel?
Of course, the GT500 is rated at 540 flywheel, and they got 511 @ the wheels.

Not sure, the 5th gen might be heavy but its putting down some pretty impressive #'s.

they should have made a completely new chassis for the 5th gen... it seems in every comparison its loosing huge points to the mustang because of the handling... and its IRS as opposed to the mustanges straight axel... dont know about the shelby that might be IRS too though... i think the mustang is so ugly though... my boss is the complete opposite and we fight all the time about it... he thinks the 5th gen looks horrible... mustang is so bulgdy....
