Lightning Lap 2024 - DH edges Mach 1 by .2 sec

[Galvez1978]

I have 991 GT3 and a Mach1, i only tracked the Mach1 once, on Portimao Race circuit, but was only around 2" slower than my GT3. The Mach1 have a great performance, only needs more speed, with more power or less weight.

Naaah, I know your times since last Ford fest. You did 13-seconds gap on a stock 10Auto Mach 1 with your manual pre-face lift... So it is not a marginal difference. Your difference with the "stage 1 tuned" mach 1 with 10 auto was 11 seconds. The difference between my time (stock m1 with manual 6) was 16-17 seconds... So it is quite a difference in my opinion in favor of your experience AND modded car.

2km=1 second, 4 km=2 seconds.
if the track have long straights the Mach1 will be slower.

VIR? Virginia International Raceway?

YES.
My experience and gears would be for full course, not the grand course they are running.

A GT3 is clearly faster than Mach1 but I'm talking both cars driven by me, the Mach1 was only 2" slower, these day on the track there was GT3's and RS slower than me and others GT3's , Alpine A-110 and others faster. Were the cars fasters?? Or the driver?

Example: Maybe my driving skills is pass a turn at 100MPH, the Mach1 can pass at 110 and the GT3 can pass at 120............. but my skills or my balls can't pass more fast! these is the reason that i said on my hands a Mach1 is only 2" slower.

so what you're saying is you have a REAL Drivers car. Not a marshmell0w-wrapped conveyance designed for stupid people not to take themselves out of the gene pool, even when they deserve to be.

I think i'm a decent driver, but one day on a Porche trackday Romain Dumas ( https://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romain_Dumas ) was my instructor, on Jerez circuit my best lap was 2:00:00 i feel great was a very good time, and I told him to drive one lap, he said me ok!!!! he did it calmly, like smoking a cigar, 1:51:00 was his time. These is the reason that i say the skills level of each driver, a pro driver can go at 100% of the car, we, normal drivers can't do it.

I was at Road Atlanta in September and there was a a single base-auto/non-HP Darkhorse there … but 4 Mach1-HPs including mine, 2 GT350 and 2 GT500 plus a couple GTs and one EB.

Are you telling me that basically a month after production started there was only ONE new rare Mustang at an event, but a bunch of older cars? What can this mean!
