My problem with this test is that they didn't run it in a configuration that you can compare with any other times, and we all know what the ACR did to the ZO6. You then have things like the ultimate track car challenge where the pills scca argument gets put to sleep because they run the cars...
The mustang isn't within 4 seconds of the Vette or the Viper, those two were not driven to their potential just like the article states, and the ZO6 hasn't been that close to the Viper on any road course. You guys are crazy if you think any car with the mustng's weight, hp, aero, and center of...
I've already told him the suspension is different and lighter, and that beyond the Alpha platform the cars are 70% different according to GM. This Gens suspension is aluminum and 26lbs lighter than last year. The other thing he doesn't realize is that the shear panel in the SS is aluminum and...
Maybe they just wanted to make sure they get more clicks for their advertisers by separating the instrumented test from the track test, you have to tune into the next episode to find out what happens. I'm sure there are going to be more long threads all over the Internet and everyone will be...
Looking at the different strategies they use is always interesting, GM may not want high volume sales from the more expensive to produce v8 cars by offering a cheaper v8 entry model. It also makes the car more special and will help resale value down the road. If you want the V8 you have to pay...
There are no rules to what engine any of them use, and considering the weight of these cars and the fact that in racing these cars will be spending more time accelerating than anything else it makes more sense to use an engine with tons of power down low. These Ford engines are nice on paper...
Randy ran a 141.06 in a Boss 302LS at LS, here is the video from MT, I think you have the times confused with the head to head against a ZL1 that happened at a different track. Ford's own hot shoes did beat his LS time by less than a second...
This is correct according to GM's lead corvette engineer. The front mid engine design is done, the engine is as low as possible and it was pushed as far back as possible, two inches further than a c6. It's hard to say on what will happen to big v8s for the big three because the next generation...
So basically what you're saying is that you need to hang on to this because the Mustang can win as long as the camaro is restricted by stupid racing rules of crap racing that maybe a few thousand people watch. This is all you have left because the camaro has the better suspension (aluminum)...
F1 cars have gone well over 1.7, some of them are 2+, fyi they have more in common with the Chevrolet Tahoe than any current production sports car. If you haven't noticed their wheelbase is over 120" and their track width is obviously more narrow than the Mustang or camaro. Any normal person...
Dude just no lol
Please go take a look at an F1 car and tell us again about the golden ratio or even an optimal "footprint". The camaro needs to be longer than the vette because it has a higher center of gravity, they do it for weight transfer. Why do you think the Mustang GT PP has such a poor...
