It was a perfect analogy in response to your statement about power, but now all of a sudden when it proves you wrong its 'nonsense'?

Yes it is Ford's fault for not having a more powerful version of the Mustang at this time, but bottom line is the R lost because it lacked HP not because it was not up to the task in the handling/braking department.

It lost because it lost. There is no proof the GT350 platform could handle more power as is, so you are just assuming.

I think you are confusing the GT350 Tech Pack with the ZL1. The ZL1 can run just fine w/o overheating. HAHAHA 11 coolers to do so, but still.
