they are getting the F150 cooler. It's a single extra row on the heat exchanger. Woop-de-doo.
The chart is from last year. The announcement about the 10R80 happened in January. Actually 12/29.
That’s the MACH “e” - E being for all the “ediots” at Ford that thought taking an Escape SUV, planting it onto a VW ID4 skateboard and calling it a Mustang would be the cool thing to do... NOT.
If you have a PP2 it will keep up for a couple laps early in the morning on your track day. And then you will either be in the paddock or doing cool down laps while the Mach 1 owner is happily running fast laps.
From what Ford has published about it, it should be better. I’m interested in seeing how much. The PP2 posted a better lap time than a Camaro SS 1LE by about 1 second at the Lightning Lap. Is the Mach 1 another second better? 0.1 better? It will/would be a lot easier for folks to justify the cost of a Mach 1 if/when there was data showing how it stacks up on a track compared to those two cars.
all due to tires. Cup2 are better track tires than SuperCar3 and the PP2 is shod with 305, the SS 285 up front. Also SC3 == PS4S. The Mach may not make any time on PP2 but it should be able to string more than a couple laps together. The Mach (modulo trans) is what the PP2 should have been all along.
you have drive modes in your Bullitt and the manual goes into all kinds of detail about launching at the strip and camber for track. (it might be in the supplement) and should also talk about no-lift-shifting. Just be sure you replace IRS bits before you start dumping the cluch or prepare to break things. Because Ford is unlikely to have fixed their previous Fkups in that department. Just because engineering finally went back and re-read what the English majors put in the manual and pointed out a bunch of missing/outdated stuff doesn't mean the Mach1 had diddly 'new' to it.
or coast the straights and having to short shift constantly. That’s why I sold it and that’s why I’m here. If Ford would have come out with the Mach 1 sooner, having to choose between Mach 1 or GT350 would have been a tough decision. But a great problem to have.
I wrote that whole long post to try to explain. One lap - yes the PP2 might make one lap faster. But do you want bragging rights on the internet or a fun track day car?
Great example on what makes the Mach 1 a bargain...
Camaro fans always have to say this stuff. Look up the tread wear rating of the tires and you will see that the super car 3 tires on the SS 1LE are much more equivalent to the Cup 2 tires rather than the PS4S. I don't know why people continue to stretch the truth when it's so easy to just look up the information. Yes there is a SLIGHT difference in treadwear rating, but not much. The "superior design" of the Camaro chassis surely should be able to overcome the slight difference in tire stickiness.
treadwear is an arbitrary made up number for marketing purposes. There is no industry standard. It means NOTHING as a description of outright grip and can NEVER be used as a comparison metric between brands. Within a single brand of tire or model family yes the TW rating can indicate a relative ranking.
