Are they testing back to back?

I don't think it's back to back. There doing the best drivers car and the Mustang PP2 was one of the contenders; no Camaro though. They're likely just comparing times from the previous 1LE pass.

hopefully it doesn't take 6 months to get the numbers

I expect the 1LE will be a bit quicker but no matter who wins there will certainly be alot of and

Allow me to sum up...

I still expect the 1LE to be quicker as well. I expect the PP2 to be a respectable competitor now, unlike the PP1.

And I will. I'm going to rent out Royal Purple once temps cool down. I've never once been to a track so. Should be fun. It's just going to be me at the track so. I should be able to spend all day getting it dialed in.

The screwed up part is 1100 won't be enough. I dropped it off last week and told Sorian, when this stage is done, we need to build the block and hit that 1500 mark.

Hope I’m not out of line asking this question, but I gotta. Why? Not trying to judge or anything. Just trying to understand the motivation. I’ve always felt that the ZL1 / Z06 were as much on the edge of “ridiculous performance while still able to drive casually” as anything available. At 800, 1,100, or God help me 1,500 to the wheels, I personally would be hesitant to drive it on city streets. Will this become a track-only car or do you still expect it will still have street manners?

He refuses to go to the tracks..he's exclusively a street racer

Now it's "stock" as long as the block is stock. You can have turbo's, superchargers, exhaust, drag radials, headers, intake, tune. That's covered under the "stock" category now.



So, they have 900 hp "stock" Mustangs. That's why when I'm done with my build and I crank out 1100 hp, it's still going to be stock.

Another thing they've been doing is posting these videos where they race Hellcats and beat them but don't say that the Hellcat was in 500 HP mode, lol!! Or they'll make it a 20+ minute video with only 20 seconds of it being the actual race and they allude to it somewhere in the video but don't come out specifically and say it.

So THAT's where you draw the line? LOL!! Well what about roll cages and a parachute? I'm pretty sure at the HP you're at you will need those things to run at just about any track. And probably even an external battery and/or fuel disconnect/shut off switch.

I personally don't care for the track. I go and I enjoy myself. But it is a long day and most of it is sitting around waiting and by the time I get home I'm usually wiped out. All just for 3 passes. I don't see the fun in that. Sitting around for 5-6 hours and wasting 20 bucks with only 3 passes to show for it. And sometimes if it's a particularly busy night you don't even get that. Last time I went I was there for over 2 1/2 hours before I gave up and just went home. And that doesn't include the 40 minute drive there and back. Even when I do go I don't beat on my car. I've posted my videos and you can clearly see that I barely put effort into it. The track is not worth it to me. But I'll go to a private track or rented road any day.

Yep..all of those..cage, chute, chassis cert, etc..also he'd likely need a comp license since it'll be below 10.XX.

Is that the only track in the area for you? I remember when I was going to the track alot the only time it was that busy was when it first opened. Other than that I could get 10 - 15 passes in if I wanted to hot lap the car.
