100% this- I have owned 2 10A cars and neither had a break in period on the transmission- after the first 100 miles it was full send - neither got any faster after 1000 miles or anything like that

I would get it back to the dealer ASAP - 100% shouldnt be doing that

Yes agree- beating on a car without warming it up is asking for problems...... Wasnt saying anything negative about those waiting - more just curious as my car was a 100 mile break in before going for a quick run - 1000 miles for full on track days Was curious if there was anything saying...

I was curious as I have never seen this on Mustangs before- but I just read through the owners manual and I don't see any mention of a 1000 mile break in period ..... The only thing the owners manual refers to is tires .. BREAKING-IN You need to break in new tires for approximately 300 mi (480...

3K under MSRP - they are out there but you have to leave LA/OC metro area https://www.autotrader.com/cars-for-sale/vehicledetails.xhtml?listingId=693147418&allListingType=all-cars&city=Yorba...

2 years from now when your cruising top down Coyote rumbling you won't remember the extra 1000

Yes... post your times! Just remember if you are running on the streets don't be too disappointed if the times are slower then expected... big difference between a prepped track and the street... have fun!

I'm still trying to figure out how Motor Trend got such horrible 0-60 times for the GT500 as well when everyone else was in the low 3s ... as I mentioned ....the GT500 will put a hurting on my car too so nothing against the DH

Something is very wrong..... I promise the car is not running 9s in the 1/4 mile.... Also reaction time doesn't count towards the 1/4 mile time.... I would say something is wrong with the software.....

Let me see what I can find......but it was on the A10 cars- if you tried to brake torque it then it would cut power to protect the drivetrain .......guys were saying their tuners figured it out and once they tuned it out 60 foot times dropped drastically...... Who knows if they did the same...

What spec did you order? a few notes- carbon traps seem to make a difference There "could" be torque management if you brake torque- this is what they did on the 22 and 23s but with a tune -- launches improved and times dropped

Thats because it is 3.3 .....I have driven multiple GT500- Mach 1s - GT PP1 A10 cars - and I can tell you without a doubt...... they messed up if they had a 3.7 0-60 .... most other people were getting in the low 3s and there have been guys that dipped into the 10s on a stock tire completely...

Yep 100% the Dark Horse is like the Mach 1 / GT350- none of these are drag cars...they are all track cars so I am with you 100% - the fact they are quick in a straight line is a bonus And yes- I owned an S500 PP1 A10 prior- while drag mode worked right away- normal daily driving took some...

The numbers were in before on the manual car... and they were not that great... I mean remember A10 s550 GTs were running 11.8s ... 0 to 60 faster for the DH but if 1/4 mile faster on the s550 that means it catching the Dark Horse on the big end The stopping is impressive though... But get...

Also should point put the 350R gets faster acceleration numbers then the 350 due to the wheels So while I think the DH carbon fiber wheels are ugly... the DH should pick up another tenth with them

Yes ... same numbers as a 350R but coming from a 19 PP1 a10 previously... much more consistent acceleration with the A10 then the 350R will get you... I mean all cars tested are sticky track with roll out so if you gave faster acceleration numbers here expect to be faster on the street as well...

FYI in the performance section - they removed carbon traps and looks like resulted in a gain .....

You are telling me you have never driven a Shelby without telling me you have never driven a Shelby ..... So you can add a 5.2L motor/ blower/ DCT/ cooling mods/ aero mods/ suspension exc exc for less than 20K? Dark Horse starts at 60K and GT500 was 76K I believe

Definitely don't take delivery. Honestly lots of REALLY nice S550s you could buy with low mileage at a BIG discount
