Mustang GT PP2 Competes in MT Best Driver's Car 2018
- Thread starter TheVikingRL
- Start date
ZR1 ran 1 sec slower 1:32.46 than the ACR they tested 2 years ago. Also, 720s ran a 1:29.78.
GT2RS is the new Laguna Seca king. I can only imagine a faster time if Porsche did a record attempt.

The GT2RS running a 1:28.3 is just nuts. Especially considering it's almost 700hp though just the rear wheels. Would like to have seen the Ford GT run this event for comparison.
Its crazy to think what a Viper TA would run on equivalent tires. It runs the 1.33 time with Corsa tires. The top of the line Pirelli tire is Trofeo R which is competition with the Michelin Cup 2.
The last GT500 ran a 1:38.7 which really illustrates how much HP comes into play here. So should be interesting to see how the next GT500 does assuming it's not a complete porker.
I see the GT2 took the crown from the ACR.
What did its GM competitor run? I know there was a big debate if it could beat out the 1LE.
What car are you talking about?
Just checked the Mustang GT PP2 is under 1 sec slower than the current SS 1LE (gen 6 camaro).
Yeah I think the 1LE is going to be a touch faster.
We really need same day tests lol.
The 2017 SS1LE ran a 1:37.78 lap. Don't know if they have made any non-cosmetic changes in 2018.
Not a bad looking set up
Too bad you’ll only get a few laps in the PP2 as Ford decided not to give it any coolers to keep it from taking GT350 sales.
Which as people like to point out on here, is an eternity. Particularly over a 10 lap or 20 minute session
Considering it's still over 2 seconds slower than a 350R in both this and the C&D LL competition I'd say it's not much of a threat regardless. I honestly expected the times to be a little closer with all the PP2 suspension changes.
Big price difference between a PP2 and a GT350R which sees an ADM at least in this part of the US.
What's the time difference between a non R GT350 and the PP?
Think big reg was talking about the GT350, not the 350R.
At Chuckwalla the non R was over a second slower than the Gen 5 Z/28 while the R was just about a second faster when Ford themselves did testing. The R was over 2 seconds faster than the non R
GM claims the SS 1LE was on par with the non R on any track. The SS 1LE was faster than the Gen 5 Z/28 at Laguna Seca. Hence Ford protecting the non R by hamstringing the PP2

Did they do a same day, same driver test of the Z28 and the 1LE?
