Wow, that new Boss 302 Laguna Seca is sweet. Not going to write a review as more qualified guys with more seat time can do that, but first impressions are it was very snappy and handles great!! An awesome addition to any car guys line-up. :thumbsup:thumbsup

Thanks to Terry and Monica for letting Summer and I take it for a spin......and for helping me break in my new GT. :lol :cheers

I thought you said meant when we were trading keys it was going to be permanent...:rofl

As nice as the LS is, it still amazes me how you get a whole different level of "WOW" when you get in a GT!:thumbsup

ma.
I can tell you the cars handling is simply awesome!I had the pleasure of driving the Laguna at the Ford proving grounds.I got to do things to that car that you would never do to your own!
Wet skid pad and dry skid pads,breaking ,speed run .Even had the pleasure of having lunch with the development team! YOOWZA!!Needless to say this was all thanks to our beloved friend Mark McGowan! Oh ya Mark is the man in my book!(Andy’s too!)
When we did the 240 dry skid pad in all the settings .In the track setting Mark asked me to try to spin. I could not loop it without maximum effort.We both had a laugh over my attempts .In the wet the car was so predictable ,that it made wet driving a blast!We did’t even have the track key!Mark couldn’t find it!But I did hear all about it from the team.The seat s are perfect for the car.But the best part of the car is the sound ! Oh so sweet revving to 7,600 rpm’s!
The development team did a wonderful job on this car.Kudos to the team and Ford!The car is a bargain and will blow by any GT3’s or M3’s on the track!It needs nothing other than dot 4 brake fluid. I get mine in mid to late July and cant wait!
I wil have mine at the rally and will be sharing it with Mark! So book rides early!
