The failure of Ford was to build an all new GT that is slower than the outgoing GT in the quarter mile which is where the GT has always lived. In their desperation to unseat the SS 1LE with their PP which failed, they ignored what their fans wanted.

As a Mustang fan this past year has been brutal. All the excitement about how the GT was going to be lightweight, have higher hp, and be a 1LE crusher all failed. Next Dodge offers up the Scatpack which instantly outruns the GT on the street and strip, next comes the 6th Gen SS which outruns the GT on the street, strip, and track.

Now the news that the new SS is so good it may give their GT350 all it can handle in non R form. Wait though another hammer will fall soon when the next 1LE runs with their GT350 track package.
