    C7 vs C6 Z06

    So at the end of the day is the C6 with N/A 427 and 320 fewer pounds to tote around gonna be the better road course car vis-a-vis the 2015 650/650 blaster?? Except, of course for the impeccable shifting of the auto tranny.

    Boss 302 vs GT 500

    Whom to get stripes/graphics from?

    I was at my local graphics shop inquiring about applying stripes to another car to match the ones on my FGT. He suggested that someone has already gone to the trouble of designing and laser cutting stripes for various sporty cars and that it would be far less expensive for me to buy a pre-made...

    How long was the 'drag on' straight run at NOLA?

    Who knows how many feet it was to the red-flag 'time to seriously consider braking' cones. I'm trying to figure out what part of a mile we had before jumping on the binders. Redeemed

    optimal tow hook placement

    After NOLA gotta get nose hook placement for 2 'other' cars. Loved trailering the FGT to Rally 7. I've got a single car Pacer trailer all set up with E-track and a winch. So where and how do I place a permanent nose hook similar to what's on the world's greatest car on my '09 Viper and my '01...

    '13 Boss 302LS vs '13 GT500

    So what are the variables between these 2? Suspension, weight, brakes, power, other??? I'm beginning to look, but not in any hurry. Like tracking, but have no interest in dragstrip. Car would also be on the street on weekends for enjoyment. I've not had a Mustang since my 64 and 1/2 stick...

    What is best winch for inside trailer?

    I need to place a winch at the front of a 20' Pace trailer, since this trailer has no side door. Definitely want the cordless controller. It will be used on a coupla other cars in the same weight range, so 4000 lbs would seem like plenty. And does everyone just put a 12 v. battery alongside...
