The GT350R in action.

Sounds great, can't wait to see what its lap times are.

Exactly. I will likely mod the non-R and drive it regularly while the R will stay in the garage other than an occasional cruise-in or dedicated track day.

The z28R is in first place in the season standings. That's where the z28R is at.

btw I love the new gt350.

Yep. And considering they have been on the podium for every race of the season, that should not be a surprise. The Shelby, on the other hand, has only competed in two races YTD and one of them was a horrendously wet affair. Taking 1st place in only your second race ever, in the vehicles second race ever, with a 16 year old driver no less, is quite an accomplishment.

I'm interested to see how the VIR race ends in a few weeks!

Then at some point rule changes apply, it's just how it goes. Restrict/unrestrict some air flow, along with adding/taking away weight, etc. I think this GT-350 is the best Mustang, that Ford has ever made!

I think the 350R-C runs the same restrictor as the current Boss cars. Considering how dominant they were over the Z/28 ' s I expect more by the end of the season

Latest rumor has the non-R GT350 with full tank of fuel coming in at just under 3600lbs. If true, that would put the R model in the 3500 or a little under range.

I saw that too. Apparently it's a track pack non-R with a shipping weight of 3,512.

That would actually put a 350R in the mid 3,400's
