Blasphemy.Anybody else tired of the Grabber Lime??
It's all right the z06 has temps of 270+. Those cars are known to overheat and heat soak. Puny blower + inefficient front bumper vents and not enough coolers to cool engine and transmission (a8) down.
Gt500 will probably have 1-2 fast laps but being supercharged will need to cool down. I'm really impressed with how GM kept the weight down on the ZL1 if this new gt500 is over 4000lbs.
Shit, a zl1 would be a nice daily driver.
How often are you changing oil? Mine is dirty after two track days but it is an old junkyard motor.
With the blown cobra coming out 17 years ago and it having heat soak problems, all the GT500's, then the most recent z06 lawsuit for limp mode/over heat, I would hope Ford has enough cooling to prevent limp mode (provided the car is stock). Especially it being a DCT car. To me a DCT is no longer a Mustang/muscle car and more so a track focused car. Keep in mine they also put all the aero on the car. Having that huge wing is only justifiable for track. That combined with DCT, if you can't lap it, there are going to be problems for Ford.
Not only did it not seem any faster than the GT350R from a couple years ago, it also didn't seem AS fast as the GT350R. Then again, Vaun Gitten is a drifter, not a driver. Neither car was driven "properly" at their respective events. Ford gives us the best Mustangs they've ever produce, and what do the drivers do? Giant, smokey burnouts instead of showing us what the cars are actually meant to do.
Lol, this gt500 will blow any gt500 away. Even if they put down the same power.This was extremely underwhelming and disappointing. I will GLADLY stick with my 13 GT500!

I'm pretty sure the idea was to put on a show and not try to set a track record. So anyone disappointed because it wasn't driven like you wanted, hold off on your disappointment until we actually see real results.

Like the presentation or not the 350R is gonna get its ass handed to it.

Did you expect anything else? The gt350 is a sub par car at best. Of course it will get it's ass handed to itself. Ford will lose out on a perfect storm market right now. They are plain stupid.
You aware that the majority arent going to have that wing and the shitty green color is only an option?For me, I do not like how Ford has transformed the gt500 into a fast and furious car complete with erector set wing.
