[QUOTE="N/Angel, post: 15446281, member: 41688"] I have been racing our 2015 Ecoboost at Rolling50 1000 events this season. The race starts from a roll at 50km/h and the car with the highest top speed after 1000m wins. Cars are grouped by horsepower. Now I'm aware this is the open track forum, but you guys are probably the best to ask aerodynamics questions so here it goes: The Ecboost was fun but it is not very good at this kind of racing. Prepping my 03 GT for next season, taking it apart one more time this winter, adding a coyote engine and auto trans out of a 2015 GT. Other then the engine, what makes these cars go really fast and achieve a high topspeed?? any input and suggestions appreciated, I'm on a budget but I'll consider everything. The speed I'm dreaming of reaching is 250km/h, that was the top speed in the 400-500hp class at the last event (490hp Porsche 996 Turbo). thanks :beer: Ana [/QUOTE]
