I'll mention this again. Real world racing 5.0 vs SS or ZL1 vs 500, the mustang wins 90% of the time in the 0-60, 1/8 mile, 1/4 mile, street light to streetlight, roll race, and top speed. The 500 splits the track racing with the ZL1. So I ask what is the better performance car for the street? But hey I guess when you get blown away in any of the above you can say . but my car won the lightning lap and is easier to drive  |
If you guys can honestly say that more brake is not a good thing you need your heads checked.
As far as 90% that is a ridiculous overestimation.
Take a Track Pak VS. 1LE Fords choice the GT+ Trak Pak gets owned. The 1LE is better matched by the hallowed Laguna Seca.
The majority of non biased drivers prefer to drive the ZL1 it can't be argued. The GT500 has how much more power? 82+ HP and 75+ FTLBS and it's splitting races? Just shows that Brakes/Tire/Suspension DO make a difference.
The Z/28 proves it's not ALL about HP when you go around a track.
Now when this new Mustang comes out and the specs tell me that the following is either true or probable...
1) It only gained 20HP/10FTLBS
2) While it gained 100lbs of unsprung weight
3) While barely addressing it's weak brakes
4) Finally they added an IRS maybe it'll help
5) The tire size and compound are still inadequate
6) It's looks are subjectively more feminine and at the very least resemble a Fusion.
7) I'm not overly worried...
I'll leave it at that because you guys are just Trolling.....
