I was hoping to see the Mustang GT4.R go up against it's Camaro equivalent this weekend at Sebring, but it looks like the Camaro is not ready yet for IMSA.
The Camaros thought they were ready for the PWC race in St. Pete's last weekend, but a grandfathered 302.R showed them who was still The...
What happened to the Z/28.R in IMSA CTSC GS for 2016? Why did Stevenson Racing move to GT3 and Mantella Racing to PWC? Why no other Camaros?
The following document shows the list of GS eligible cars for 2015.

Does anyone have any Facts/Rumors/Guesses about how well the Pony Cars are selling outside of the US and Canada? I have tried asking on various websites, but have had no luck in getting any useful information.
Of course I am most curious about the RHD Mustangs, but would take anything that I...
Since there are so many comments in this thread about the replacement name for 'SVT', I figured it was time for a new poll.
The favorite suggestions so far seem to be:
SVT, SVO, FPV, FPO, Cobra, Shelby something, and 999.
Do you have another?
I am wondering where the GT350 will come in, suspension and tires wise vs the two Camaros.
What are the parameters that will define it as a 1LE competitor or a Z28 competitor?
HP? CC Discs? Magnetic dampers? Tires? Price? The .R version?
Whatever MotorTrend pronounces it to be?
If the street...
If you want to have a conversation with adult Camaro and Mustang enthusiasts who can talk intelligently about comparing similarly equipped and purposed Pony Cars, please use this thread.
Does anyone have access to or know if the big 3 publishes numbers for the special edition pony/muscle cars? eg. Boss 302, Boss 302 LS, 1LE, Z28, SRT 392, Scat Pack etc.
I had this really great idea. I figured I would go through all the reviews so far and tally up all of the positive and negative comments by each of the reviewers and give each article a rating based on the ratio of +s and -s .
That sounded like a fun project and a nice contribution to my...

So. What do you want to know about the Mustang?
A collection of PCOTY Mustang impressions can be found on the R&T site as of an hour ago. To what I’ve written there, I’ll add the following: This Mustang is a step...
It would be cool to be among the 1st Mustang6G members to receive their new Mustangs and report them here.
I suggest that the first picture of a new window information sheet plus a time stamped picture of keys in hand would qualify for 1st Member/Owner bragging rights in the following...
I grabbed a few pictures of the suspension components from the Guard GT Convertible that was on the rotisserie stand on Mustang Alley.
We had a very interesting tour with a gentleman at Watson Engineering/Racing at their shop on Friday.
Here are a few highlights.

Only Mustang can provide to any new buyer a flyer that introduces them to hordes of new friends. Only Mustang has an association like the Mustang Club of America (actually the World) which can provide a flyer with purchases of a Mustang.
