Ben, low 1:20's at LS?
GT MK IV posts the first sub-2:00 GT car lap of COTA
- Thread starter treynor
- Start date
I still want to see pics of the car! Pretty please!
gorgeous car. The aero covers (I assume that's what they are) on the wheels are...interesting
I didn't get any for my car - I prefer the standard look. This was just the wheel set which happened to have fresh tires when I did the first 1:59 lap.
How do those attach?
I would love to see how the Ecoboost 3.5 in these are put together.
In the MKIV it's an EcoBoost 3.8. I hope to be able to share build pics presently...
Interesting. Is it a larger bore, stroke, or both? I am guessing a proprietary block and internals at this power level for longevity.
They are getting impressive power regardless.
I believe it's bored & stroked, and yes, the power output is stout. That MPH at the end of the back straight is nuts, especially for a heavy aero car.
That downforce creates a lot of drag in essence. It takes a good amount of power to overcome, and it sounds like these are making it. Amazing machine. If the original street going version had been closer to this, maybe there would have been less haters. Or maybe not. Lol.
please, there would still be weeping and gnashing of teeth that it doesn't have a V8
haven't looked into the MK cars at all but didn't realize they were a larger displacement version of the ecoboost. It would be interesting to see what they actually put down on a dyno
Incredibly pretty car, amazing how they made it better looking than thr mk2 while also improving aero. I hope to see one this year
Crazy that you know that chassis number this far in advance. I've seen the correspondence sent out by Owens and it seems rather generic and leads you to believe that deliveries will be well down the road from now.
