Guys, please.
It's the same track, nearly identical atmospheric conditions, WITH THE SAME DRIVER.
Ford is in 'catch up' mode, much as they were during '98-02.
Hopefully, this forces Ford to respond and elevate the bar for all of us.
Reality sucks...
Here you go...
VIR results: (ZL1 excluded, since it was only tested at the 'ring so far)
GT350R - 2:51.8
SS 1LE - 2:54.8
V6 1LE - 3:04
GTPP - 3:05

Of course. Video gets posted no matter what!
Sebring on January 7th-8th is the next event.
Maybe the Mustang guys could post video from the same run so we can get a multiple view perspective of the whole thing.
The 'stang has built-in video, right?
I hear what you are saying. And yes, I was using track times as the primary comparison.
The V6 1LE gets eaten by ANY Coyote in a stop light race.
More than just track, though...AutoX results will resemble the track times.
The age of the test is irrelevant. It's a Gen to Gen comparison.
Value...
They do make a 1LE with more power...it's the SS 1LE.
The V6 1LE > GTPP
The SS 1LE > GT350
The ZL1 > GT350R
I would happily expect all this to change when Ford does the 2PP.
Pushing the competition is good for everyone!

Didn't come to troll, but I wanted to reply.
There is a thread over on the camaro6.com about guys building a parts list to make a 1SS into a 'budget' 1LE. Turns out one of the biggest performance bumps (on track) is from the eLSD. It has PTM (Performance Traction Management) and it cannot be...
Greetings everyone.
The dealer I ordered my R from has 2 350's with Tech Packages on the lot and unspoken for.
They are asking for $5k over sticker.
If anyone is interested, PM me.

Orlando area.
Lots of cars still available out there.
Only took a work buddy 3 phone calls to find a dealer with a 350R slot he could build to order. Paid $12.5K ADM.
You can't finance a car that has no VIN.
How did you get the loan without it?
You can pay a 100% refundable deposit to a dealer to place an order, but cannot enter into a retail finance agreement without a physical object to attach it to.
If the dealer put a VIN in the contract that wasn't an...
Yep. Tired of the tail chase from so many dealerships. Went back to my original dealer (where I bought my Cobra and my Focus ST) and they made it happen at a price I can handle.
Personal relationships.
In 2013, you could buy a GT, BOSS302, BOSS302 LS, GT500, (and only including here because you did), the Focus ST.
Saying the 350 production stops because of the 500 isn't based on past practice.
The GT350 and GT500 are going for different segments. (Track vs Drag/Cruiser)
