Comparing the GT350 to the Boss I'd give the win to my Boss under 3500 rpms, it pulled harder and sounded better. Over 3500 the GT350 is Alive! Where the Boss appeared to be running out of stream at 7000-rpm, it feels like the 350 is just still pulling incredibly hard. Handling wise no comparison while the Boss did well for what it was on the garbage Pirelli tires, the GT350 would have left it like it was standing still. The GT350s balance on the Cup2s is incredible, the car is planted. I will run out of my tolerence of fear long before this car runs out of capability.

Yea while the Boss did great for what it was and may be the best handling solid axel car I can think of atm, I had no doubt the gt350 is a superior machine handling wise. Plus so so Pirellis vs the best in the psc2s.

Straight line wise the Boss was a beast and is faster than any manual s550 except for the gt350 which it arguably matches according to magazine stats anyways, I didn't see 12.3 but know that it got 12.4 with motortrend which is faster than any 16-19 gt350 except for the latest BDC article gt350 that ran a 12.3, so the Boss is definitely held it's own to this day.

My brother had one and regardless of magazine time or anything like that, the Boss was easy to launch hard consistently which made whooping a lot of cars in the real world routine.
