Complete reviews on the 6th gen are out finally, this fabled GT350 just got schooled and has been found lacking, yet again.

Post them up so we can read them.

Ferrari and Porsche must make terrible track cars if it's all about peak torque . The type of racing you're talking about is heavily reliant on the regulating body balancing the cars properly, and these regulations tend to change frequently in an attempt to do so, so your point is pretty irrelevant.

you know what you are talking about but you know what they say....

Never attempt to argue with a fool. They will drag you down to their level and beat your with experience.

I just had to copy this from the other place:

LOL the SS is faster than the Base GT350. No way. I can't be reading that right. How the hell is that possible?

12.1 at 119 for the GT350R, 12.4 at 117 for the GT350. It traps incredibly high but probably has an awful 60 ft. What a complete failure if true. The Boss 302 is faster than a GT350 at a drag strip. I understand this car being purpose built for the track, but what the hell?


Time for ...

I don't understand where your confusion is coming from.

but but but...the GT500 is much faster on the Strip than the ZL1 and Z28. The 5.0 GT faster than the 1LE. But heck, LOL that means nothing because its the track that counts, right? double standard any?

Please explain, I'm didn't think I was confused, but maybe I am. The quote was from someone on the Mustang forum and I stated that. And the GT350 will be a great car with looks and performance. My best friend will be ordering a '16 model. I can't wait for a ride and drive!

On the drag racing part, I really don't care. My car was not made for the 1/4 mile, nor was the GT-350. The new Camaro SS will also run a faster time in the 1/4 than mine. Doesn't bother me, I love my car, and will keep driving it, till the wheels fall off.

What is this double standard that you speak of? What I stated was a quote copied from the Mustang site. The GT350 was developed for the track, duh. Just like the 1LE is not a drag car. If I was into drag racing, I would have ordered a faster SS model for that.

The only part that I wrote from me was: Time for ..., the rest rest was quoted from somewhere else!

Ah, I see now.

I missed the most important line of your post.

Here I was, so excited to hear about all of your training. How disappointing.

Can you link us to the comparison you're referring to where the GT350 gets schooled?

By the way, I'm 27 and don't have any kids. Just a lot of racing experience.

It's ok, I could have done a better job at highlighting the original quote. I can't wait to see track times and verses stuff, you know like why this car was even made! Americana badassness in motion... I appreciate you on this here forum.
