Texas Mustang Challenge Review 2016/2015

[ShadowBolt]

After driving Paul's LT1 earlier this year I fell in love with the platform/engine, if it was in the cards I would love to build a 4th gen to run in 2017. The torque was to die for, the stability of the chassis reminded me of my 2015 Mustang, you could throw it into a corner all wrong and come out on the other end just fine.

Tyler,

I wish you had some times in Paul's car that you could share. I'm not smart enough to know how much difference there would be in a Fox (or SN95, SN99) and a fourth gen but the Mustang for sure has a less sophisticated suspension. You could not find a soul that would rather have the Mustang suspension over a fourth gen. so I still believe the Mustang deserves some kind of help. How much help I have no idea. If you can go out and run faster lap times in Paul's heavier car then that would kind of prove the point. Rob has driven both and he says the Camaro is "easier" to drive but easier does not necessarily mean faster. Maybe the difference is so little that we can't use hundreds of lbs. to make things evan. I would be willing to let my Trackmate be used to see if there is really a difference and how much of a difference.
