I really hope that 350rwkw is NOT true.

Because if it is, it's going to set off the whingers, a current affair and today tonight, and that will set the government on the 'supercar' path to legislate against these cars. Same as the old phase iv.

And that will affect us. Stock or modded.

Exactly 270 (much more comparible over a figure of 350rwkw). The point im trying to make is 350rwkw is alot over the expected output that ford said it had in it. Obviously it's got more but if it has that much why understate it nearly 100rwkw ?? More to the point why doesnt it run a better time down the track ?

It's a real shame the '350' car wasn't an auto and run with slicks on it by a pro driver (Roy stated he's a noob basically). Less room for error compared to a manual.

Shouldn't be too long until we see some customer cars on the strip, then I can sleep at night :)

that's 270rwkw out of a GS rated at 315fwkw, and I would assume that was an auto not a manual.

Very keen on the GS at the moment, price is right.

Responding very well to tune only mod it seems. Value buys left right and centre!

Need to see a GT tuned :)

With steveR on the quater times, a 12.9 in on full pressure street tires is pretty good. My best time was 13.5, then I dropped the tire pressures to get some traction and got a 12.9. So im imagining with practice and some grip this car would have to do mid 12s manual. Just need someone to buy one and find out for us all.

Yup that would put an end to it once and for all. No doubting it's one heck of a engine though !!
