Thanks, I was just curious a friend of mine has one and when it was stock he couldn't outrun me(Gt500 is heavy) but now with the evo stage 2 kit he dyno's around 590-5whp and gobs of torque down low.

The mustangs at willow springs are pure race cars. They will blow a lot of cars off the track.

Big difference is when you park next to each other and see which one gets the attention...I bet it's not the red car in the picture. Another thing too I know from owning a Mustang in the past is he will be lucky if he can even get half of what it cost if he tried to sell it in lets say just 2 years. We took a beating on the fully optioned GT convertible we had and to put it nicely the build quality left a LOT to be desired, it was a real rattle trap.

The SLK55 AMG will blow those off the track. When their SC isn't busted or they brakes have faded, the rest of the time I am busy passing them.
