Going Independent on the rear added weight but fixed a very long standing problem.



Straight line performance is a consistent dead heat. Anything with a turn and the Camaro walks all over the Mustang.

The 2016 350GT and R

I haven't found any articles with track times. I'd like to see the numbers the new GT350 & the R are putting down. Like to see them compared to Camaro times.

Fords goal was/is for this Mustang to be a damn good track car, good in the turns and acceleration/braking. Pricing is well under Z/28 for the R. 50K for the GT + $6,500 for the track pack. The R is $7,000 above that, so it starts at $63,495.

Peak output of 526 HP @ 7,500 RPMs. Redline at 8,250. The article I just read estimates 0 to 60 time of 3.7 sec and top speed of 175 mph.
