Yesssssir

But whay youre saying ford fans have done with the 350 vs 2SS new Camaro is the EXACT same thing a large portion of Camaro fans have been doing since the introduction of the ZL1 in 2012.

Im workijg my way up to a buzz so i can reply to you later..

Right now the hipocrisy of this post seems laughable.

Reread my post and realize I was talking about both sides. The Mustang guys used to focus on drag because the Mustang had the leg up, while the Camaro guys used to focus on track because the Camaro had the advantage. Now that the GT350/R is more of a track car than a drag car, the roles have done a 180. So predictable, but still extremely annoying.

Lots of people like to throw out "350 will hand the SS its ass on a track" comment.

Well, that may very well be true, and in my opinion, the BASE 350 still has the advantage of better tires, and superior top end power.

But lots of people tend to forget that GT350 does NOT equal GT350R. Randy Probst really enjoyed driving the GT350TP in the recent MT video, but then went on to say "just don't drive the R first". Well...the base 350 isn't even as track capable as the TP (not to mention I'm fairly certain the SS comes equipped with more standard cooling than the base 350 does).

I say throw the brake package on a 1SS and that's it, and pit it against a base GT350 and lets see the outcomes. Lets do 0 - 60, 1/4 mile, and a track comparison.

Again, I think the base 350 may have the track advantage and should/could be quicker around a track...but by how much...if at all? Is a $40,000 SS (1SS with brakes) good competition with a $50,000 GT350? I'd love to see this.

Well it does give them something to do in their spare time I suppose, although I can think of better ways to spend my time................and why in the hell am I even spending any time responding in this thread if I do have better ways to spend my time!?

Mustang fail is too much

That's the first time I have ever seen that video posted!
Great question too. I bet if that video had been posted 325 times, you would be the first person to ask that question.

Put a monkey behind the wheel of a 600+ hp car and stupid shit happens. The consensus (if there was one, which there isn't because nobody else has watched this video) is that there was nobody in the passenger seat.

I dont know if it had Recaro seats, but I think the old ones didn't have air bags in them. For the steering air bag, he might have been lucky that it didn't go off since it was probably a Takata one, would be like a shotgun to the face. I really hope Takata goes out of business for putting out a defective product for that long.

This would be interesting and I bet these comparisons will happen shortly. The 6th gem benchmark was the 5th gen 1LE package and I think the 6th gen is quicker around a track, and obviously quicker in a straight line. If the base SS with the Brake Package can keep up with the GT350 then I will be surprised for sure. Do I think the SS will be able to keep up or beat the GT350? Honestly, no. But that's because of the power advantage and tire advantage of the GT350.
