Wow. Amazing.

That's like saying the 370z is just a 350z with new headlights. Rofl.

Lol @ irs on a mustang...Because mustangs were made for circuits, not 1/4 mile tracks.

Then that the 03-04 cobra was the "best" mustang. Yet the gt500 was the only mustang that hit 8s on a bone stock everything except transmission and twin turbo kit. The lra track pack mustang GT does better than the irs cobra ever did on a track.

Then they bring up euro cars. Same ones which got destroyed by lra mustangs in SCCA(? I don't remember the league) around some circuits.

Handles better than the new camaro and challenger (both with IRS) but is technologically behind, right?

C'mon guys. Seriously. Don't knock the stang. It's the only muscle car that never needed a "comeback", lol.

They did a few more things than slap a SC on it.

Think about it, with that much HP you have to do something to keep the rear wheels grounded when you have a live axle.
