The ZL1 was 3886 lb according to car and driver, the non-carbon fiber package GT500 is 4225lbs (with actual weights seeming to come in a little less than that)
A few laps of a road course can overheat the auto trans in the Dark Horse models or the differential on the PP2 models...but for autox you shouldn't have any issues. Feel free to do any upgrades you want, though. Radiator, oil cooler, boxing the radiator in, brake cooling ducts, hood vents...
There's a thread over on Mustang6G about what individual stuff weighs
Compared to the older car, things like wheels/brakes are bigger and those are heavier. The IRS is heavier than the old solid axle.
As far as Camaro vs Mustang, the Mustang is larger overall. And the LT1 engine is a little...

You don't need it for a single 1/4 mile pass but the street is another story. ECT basically starts going up when you do a pull so to help with detonation resistance and overall performance I want everything to be as cool as it possibly can.
I've heard "modern cars don't rust" a lot on the internet. Not sure where that comes from. And I've also heard "automakers started galvanizing steel body panels in the 80's so that's when they quit rusting". I guess that explains why there are so many rust free fox bodies and SN95's out there...
You don't want or need a drag radial for daily use on a NA GT
I wouldn't drive my Mustang in the snow/salt, but if you insist I would do a ECS/PS4 on aftermarket wheels in summer and a snow tire on stock wheels in the winter.
You don't want a max performance summer tire in the winter or even...
I dunno man, I don't remember exact numbers but I was Mustang shopping right before Covid and they were damn cheap. They went up at least 50% in the next year or two.
Nope. Brand new snowblower, sat for one summer with gas in it from spring. Happens all the time up here in the north of the first day we get a snow storm.
Now, remember they hold a lot less gas than a car, the tanks aren't sealed as good, etc. so you don't see it as often in a car that's...
