What exactly was "learned from the R"? Only the grill was used from the R. Nothing else from 2019 was "learned from" nor were "Most of the 19 changes to the base car was from the R". Not the wheels, not the tires, not the suspension, not the aero (other than the grill, also for parts commonality). What differentiates the R is the wheels, special Cup 2 tires, wing, splitter, and rear seat delete. Why you would insinuate anyone would think Ford would put any of that on a regular GT350 is beyond me.you obviously didn't get it. The 19 updates to the base car is what they learned from the R, just look at the grill and aero they did. They obviously can't make the same car... (you honestly think they will have a same wing and spoiler?) then what is the point of having a gt350 and a gt350r... and of course parts commonality reduces costs, what do you think all the car manufactuers do across different models... they can't all have the same parts exactly but they share when they can... whatever.. some people just don't get it some do, what needs to be said is said and what is done is done. Its all up to FP anyway.
You seem to imply the R has the 500 rack because it's cheaper and it's not outright better. Then explain the price increase and why the rack isn't in the GT350. Why would they put something worse on the flagship GT350R?
It makes sense that the GT500 geometry and rack is overall better for the S550 chassis. If it wasn't, they wouldn't put it on the R. If it costs more, it would explain the R's increased price, and be the reason why they didn't put it on the base GT350, which would increase it's price. Your argument is all over the place with no reasoning.
