But aren't a bunch of them paying off big mortgages after upsizing houses, and now putting kids through college? (maybe not earliest Gen X, which are not far off from last boomers). I guess flip side is if Ford is banking an extra $15K per car, do they care if they sell even the 14K GT500's...

Thought maybe Ford finally "slipped" a weight. Did hear that CFTP will be significantly delayed...........

That is from Ford?

Looking forward to someone track testing the carbon-ceramic one's. Very sig rotational weight savings, IMO...

Anything more on the weight?

Only true "failure" I know of, and that is flat out @ Daytona (in the summer I think). https://www.mustang6g.com/forums/threads/gt500-inner-cv-half-shaft-rebuild-for-serious-track-users.191680/ I wrapped my exh near the diff, just in case. But I doubt I will get it hot enough to ever matter...

Haven't taken my PS4S's down that low, have AS 3++ for the winter (since we do get snow), but running them down to 32-35, they drive 85-90% of what they do @ 70+ warmed up. If your running 700+ HP in the winter, maybe you have to be careful (as you would with almost any tire in winter). But...

Can start here.. https://trackmustangsonline.com/threads/engine-cooling-questions.21897/#post-331866 https://trackmustangsonline.com/threads/10-speed.15012/ https://trackmustangsonline.com/threads/10r80-fluid-filter-change-interval.21539/#post-325842...

Is that 1200 HP for a 1/4 mile, or a 30 minute track session in summer, with "detune" built in if CHT (inferring somewhat, EGT I assume) temps get too high?

Well, track pack has no back seat. Stang does have to start out being based on a 4 seat, low price engineered, EB. But that is not Chevy's problem if Ford is asking same money now as a Z06. If $ are the same/close, comparison's are valid no matter what we are talking (IMO).

And even if "they" go, next week you show up with 824 crank on only a 93 tune, for a couple hundred. The week after that, you show up with 970 crank (still 93), for another 7 grand (very mild bolt ons). "Metrics" still not good enough? Week after that, 1216 crank, couple more bolts on and...

Only thing I would add, is I don't think Predator is "hand" built anymore.

Worse yet, he never even read any article/post about someone who did.

Understood. I bought used, and even that was about my max I was willing to pay.

I read one suggestion (somewhere) that the fee to get in DHSC program was $2-3.5K for the dealer. Find a small dealer that was not even planning on getting in to the program. Pay the fee for them in exchange for say a 5 grand ADM (or something, like 8 total). Might be the best you are going to...

Is that "package" going to have anything worthy, performance-wise, never to be offered again? Or just more available/inclusive in 27? (assuming latter). Agree on waiting. My limit was right around $100K, and even that was purely to get a track car I didn't have to mess with the rest of the...

Could still get a 22 GT500 up through 41 months, and 41K miles and get factory 10 year warrantee (if not modding drivetrain). Got my 21 about a year and half old for $96K w/2600 miles. Sticker was $105K, but I bet it originally went for closer to 120ish (being CFTP, painted stripe, etc..). 10...

What exactly does that mean?

Just checking in to eventually see if there are any upgrades from the SC I can "steal". Just my opinion, but if I already had a DH, I would not be getting SC unless I was running road courses (or I just had stupid money and wanted one). The only other reason I might is the low compr ratio...

Got that pic from this article https://www.carscoops.com/2023/02/2024-ram-rev-electric-truck-unveiled-in-production-form-lacks-concepts-drama/ Not a huge dodge follower, but whether it's a current screen or future, it's what many of us would like to see (in regards to buttons and knobs). It's...
