Can't really blame that one on the car.
|
It was trying to get to the crowd at the other end of the race track !!
All those people in the yellow areas dodged a big bullet That number 15 deserves a medal ! http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1551725465.jpg |
Lol...

You've got to be careful with Mustangs. I can't tell you how many times I've been in a parking lot, just minding my own business, and my Mustang's throttle goes to the floor and it tries to steer into a crowd of innocent bystanders. My insurer only allows ten kills a year, and I'm already at my limit!

0/5, no burnout.
Hilarious though. |
Allright, so since we have a thread about.
In Spectator Drags at short tracks, Mustangs STINK. Could be a 80's Mustang, 90's Mustang, 2000's Mustang, etc... They post good 0-60MPH and good 1/4 Mile in magazines. They just can't seem to live up to it in the real world. |
No body count? Not a proper Mustang video me thinks.

But the suspension...yeah, it will keep you on your toes. Its frankly a bit scary. The 2015+ cars with IRS are different animal entirely. And the modern GT350 is a track monster. |
What seems to have happened is a car entering pit blocked the view of the second car.
It looked clear from that pit. |
Stijn's secret desire..
Here's Randy Probst doing a hot lap around Laguna in a 2016 350GTR Mustang. Time 1:36.11
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9kPRxiOB48Y And here in a 2017 Carrera S. Time 136.44 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AF9Uva-QaNs Pretty close, I'd say.. |
lol... I was there :D

Paul a souped up Shelby 350GTR Mustang manages the same time a regular 911S?
wow for the record I don't care bout laptimes , especially not from souped up cars against regular versions... in the end it's still a stang. If I was intersted in Stangs, i'de be on a Stang forum probably wearing some gold chain and a mullet. :D |
The new Mustangs are amazing cars in his defense. And I believe a Mustang won the race shown. 911s are all about lap times, they were bred to race. I like Randy's videos, he adds interesting insite to how the cars handle. I guess if I was just driving a GT3 to cars and coffee for approval of my peers its not a big deal. All new cars, including the new Civic Type R are amazing. The new Civic will spank most Porsches up through the 90s. Time marches on.
|
sure, but it takes Shelby to upgrade a Stang before it can be put in the same sentence as a regular production line Porsche ...
and still the thing will jink at pedestrians by the side of the road. |
This brings up an interesting discussion actually. Porsche has always spoke of " improving the breed" through racing. They now sell more SUVs and models they do not race than they actually do race. Does racing matter anymore to Porsche? Each Rennsport I attend I can see bigger gap from the old to the new.
|
The 911S cost about 30k more than the GT350. different cars for different buyers. Doesn't matter, most won't see the track.
