It helps having way more power and having the ability to go 161mph down the straight where the other cars are only going 145, it's a big fast track https://www.caranddriver.com/features/a35368171/2020-ford-mustang-shelby-gt500-lightning-lap/...

That is what he's saying, the Ford designed/built Shelbys are great, but the things that Shelby America makes (Supersnake, this new GT350, etc) are nothing but a badge/stickers/bolt-ons. The 2016 GT350R, Dark Horse and Mach 1 all ran 2:51 in the Car and Driver Lightning Lap (Grande section at...

Zero engineering and testing goes into those things

We already had this thread didn't we

They added 300lbs to make the GT500 so how is that so hard to believe?

I'd first get it in writing that they will still warranty the engine if you add oil pump gears. None of the aftermarket companies that do blower installs change the gears, and they warranty the engine. It's been that way since the kits came out for the gen 1 cars. I'd then point out that the...

Can't wait for this car to finally hit the streets so the Magazines and YouTubers can test it out in the real world and make comparison videos...

Well of course but what are you showing me?

Humiliated by 18 seconds, to be exact. And that wasn't even a stock Plaid. A modified 2022 Tesla Model S Plaid just lapped the Grand Course at Virginia International Raceway (VIR) in 2:50.7. That's 4.5 seconds quicker than we recorded with a production Porsche Taycan Turbo S at our 2021...

I'm just glad they never 'ruined' the Camaro by letting the people who are in charge of the trucks design the front end

What am I supposed to be looking at?

Each sensor has a range that it works in. Ambient air will never need to go to say 250f, and coolant won't ever need to read -25f, so they probably just use a sensor that works in the useful range for that application. Each of those is probably a different sensor that works differently.

Even every 2 weeks I'd trickle charge it. The 1 volt chargers are only like $15 on Amazon. Avoids coming out to a dead battery, the battery will live longer, and eventually you car will start doing shit like discharging over 2-3 nights of sitting.

Just start with that

:frown::lipssealed:

Does the $300k+ GTD get the same Predator engine as the GT500? Maybe a slight bump in boost or blower size? Same gen 2 design? no direct injection?

There isn't that much of a difference between two grades of gas. This was not done in a controlled, scientific fashion. It's like the guys that think they get 25 more miles out of a tank of gas after an oil change.

That MR2 looks slick

What ate you going to control with them?

Is there a current example of an awesome sports car and SUV being built on the same platform? Edit: before anyone says BMW, remember we already talked about the M cars being overweight
