[QUOTE="tt335ci03cobra, post: 16331886, member: 68944"] So which car is going cross country with a fam and hitting an auto cross or road circuit? The 9.65/140 with a track prep setup on 100 octane for $90,001 plus mark up or the the $90,000 plus mark up on with passenger seat and 315 dr’s at all corners? You cannot travel cross country with the crate parts installed and safely carry a family of 4. The seats were pulled remember? It’s also on skinnies and racegas. How prominent is 100 octane? Who hits an auto course on skinnies and enjoys the furious understeer? So on the factory setup it’s a solid mid 10 car. So is the gt500. So now I get it. You tow the crate with you on a small closed 5 ft Uhaul trailer with tools and luggage and it has space for fuel. Ok that’s great. Towing a trailer tied up your ability to mob entirely. Having a chase vehicle eliminates the nomad like roam and run image (a badass one imo) you’re painting. I could see it being cool to hook up a storage cell on the roof and carry stuff that way. Ala Wagon cars and coffee life, so there is that idea. The idea of needing to change wheels, Ecu and fuel plus pull seats etc is awesome, butdoing so on a gt500 isn’t magically some nefarious mod. You can buy wheels, tires, and ford performance aftermarket pieces for a gt500 that keep a warranty and if you start with a base or handling pack car, yer way under $90,001. The gt500 on one wheel and tire, one ecu and one fuel is competitive with a demon at a strip and loads more fun most every other way. [/QUOTE]
