1992 IMSA GTU acheiva ... notice the rear mounted sequential transaxle ?
 
i know i posted a non mustang .. but jeez.. no love for mechanical beauty .

quick ? does any of your 5liters need 2"primary header tubes?? care to put any thought why this gay olds would ?? just food for thought is all . no offense intended . and i understand you boys like to go straight in the 2nd simplest car to be no brainer fast in . im just surprised that yall cant see past displacement for engineering and fab that it takes to do what they did ..

so if you had to " think " about how to be fast .. would you be playing with cars at all ?

didnt think so .

these cars are simply tube chassis silohuette race cars .. catering to midsize turbo v6 or na v8 power .... the gtu class is for smaller than midsize turbo 4 ,na 4 , wenkels , and whatnot . engeneering/tech out the wazoo , and lateral grip in excess of 1 g in the smaller gtu classes whats not to love .

you know that thing your about to crush as soon as yours is together .
and your build required thought and math so untwist your panties .

im referring to the dummy proof typical slicks ,control arms and bottle approach to 12 of the same color, same mods,sorry got you confused with 6 other guys mustang builds. . but the same can be said for f's too if ya feel better .. but yours isnt typical so take it how you want.
 
ok i give .. i love this car ..

Kinda cool, definitely better than nascar. But when a racecar simulates a production car via stickers... weak.

How close is that motor to a production version?

Obviously, people do like bitchin' racecars if you paid attention to the rest of the responses:)

Not everyone is gonna think everything is cool. I understand where you're coming from, just thought you got a little excited:lol:
