Whenever I think about Mustangs on track this is what I envision.

Like I have indicated on flat surfaces they do OK but put some elevation changes in play and they become down right nasty with wicked weight transfer to the front which pretty much makes rears weightless. Put an unskilled driver in that combo with 400 plus HP and your looking for an accident to happen.

Ok so I'm still kind of a n00b when it comes to this stuff so can someone explain to me the difference between the Mustang's SRA and an IRS. Thanks

Well a Mustang SRA is sort of like this but with wider tires and 450 more donkeys



And 370Z IRS is more like this but with skinnier tires and only about 300 donkeys

SRA = Solid Rear Axil = both wheels on a single mechanism something like a teetertotter

IRS = independant rear suspention = wheels move independant of each other.

IRS is better on bumpy roads, harsh road conditions. SRA is generally thought to be better at handling gobs of power cheaply and has slightly less drivetrain loss.

That's the answer I was looking for, thanks
