[QUOTE="SCALECRAFT, post: 15567090, member: 161806"] Hi All I wanted one of these!!!! There are 3 that come to Fontana at this point. At Fontana AAA Roval configured track, I track a 2014 Gt 500 with no track pack cooling option. The engine oil monitor went from normal to warm one time when the days temps were around 97 degrees. But the engine never shuts down or cuts power. I drive it hard. Anyone that knows this track knows a good time is below 2:00min. I put down 1:54.6. Although it costs the front tires. Now I don't run when over 82-83 degrees. So what my point? Here I am with a "straight line car" and none of the 350s' that come out have put down a better time than my 500. Two of the 3 350s' are the "R" version. The non "R" version overheats and cuts power. The poor guy has taken it to Ford twice and same issue. And he's not pushing the car. A lot of hype and premiums over MSRP for the 350. The cars I've seen with overheating problems so far I have seen in extreme track conditions are; Most new Z06 Corvettes 1 new Base model Corvette with Auto trans. A Tesla, yep a guy tracks the model S. Good for 3 laps. And unfortunately the 350. A shame really. Looking at a 2017/18 ZL1/1LE soon to be released. [/QUOTE]
