Blow the doors off my shelby?? HA!
You have got a fast car. I won't debate that. I have a list of the
fastest 50 of all time that I got out of some magazine recently and the 
1964 Corvette with the 327 FI engine is listed as #41. The car tested
was a 327 FI, 4 speed w/4.11 rear. It did the 1/4 in 14.2 sec at an even
100 mph. (But, however) the Shelby with the paxton supercharger, automatic
transmission (mine is a 4-speed top-loader) and air conditioner (which
I don't have) with a Paxton supercharger blowing into a 715 CFM
4V on top of a Shelby modified 289 hipo Ford engine
and 3.89 rear came in 21st turning the 1/4 mile in 14 
seconds at 102 mph.

It would indeed be an interesting race.
