A couple of things here. A my car is a a6 ss and weighed right about 3800 bone stock. Keep that in mind as its heavier than the m6 cars.

First congrats to ford for stepping up. But I dont think its going to be the Camaro killer that everyone expects. Even maybe, killer no.

Heres why imo.

They dont have torque specs...usually a lack of engine specs hides details. Just saying.

They added a 6 speed finally...with that comes more weight.

They are adding brembos...with that comes more weight as well.

If Im correct the mustang still has less airbags and body stuctures required for 2012, if they add those there will be more weight.


Im calling it as official 1/4 gt time with track pack 13.2x.

Feel free to dig it up and throw it in my face down the road.

Oh and I still love the hood and side scoop options. LOL. Cheese.


Oh and I forgot to mention, I think the GT will win road courses against the SS now. With the track pack that is.
