GT350 vs Supercharged GT Drag Race

[icormba]

I know one thing . If I was working for Ford and engineering the new Gt350 last year, I'd definately applied some forced induction to the voodoo in stock form just to make sure that no one in a base supercharged Gt could spank a $55,000 to $65,000 Gt350 in a drag race.

The GT350 driver should have dumped the extra weight passenger! ;)

Anyway, my wife's Jeep can take my GT350 off the line, but I could care less. Nothing wrong with after market supercharged GT, but it's still not a GT350. Both are cool, both cost money, and both are for different purposes.

Besides... what stock production car out there sounds like this for under $60k??

Time would have been better spent killing the idea of releasing cars without the trans/diff cooler which has the non-track/r models going into limp mode.

Stupidity of that decision boggles the mind and is obvious they are fixing their problems with the new 2017s.

Forced induction does not really suit itself to road racing. Short burst drags of 1/4 mile to a mile sure. But a blown GT350 is not what the intent was nor should be.

This. Not possible anyway. Too many GT guys willing to ramp up twin turbo systems or larger SC's like a KB 3.2 or 3.6 with aggressive tuning. I love the 350 for what it is, a track assault vehicle with a very capable suspension capable of handling it's abundant power.
