Face it, 1/8 and 1/4 ET performance is all that really matters in here. And any car can be made to corner well with enough money thrown into the undercarriage.

I never said you thought the package was worth the money, that was just one of my arguements that the car was a joke and NOT the complete package you were saying it is. IN FACT, I said I WANTED to hear you say it was worth the money, so I obviously hadn't already seen you post that it was worth the money or claim that you had said that...............

As for me being a noob, I've actually been here for a while, I've just changed my name a few times (thinking of changing it again to just DISCERNING). Either way, that has nothing to do with our posts, this thread, or this car; so it doesn't matter.

Nothing I ever posted was Biased BS (from what I remeber, LOL). Perhaps I was a bit biased against some mustangs, but that was against these lame over priced packages, they're too hokey and overrated. THe only other things I said about the stang is that they don't have a good weight distribution (they don't) and that I don't like their solid axles (but that they aren't horrible). What's biased about that??? If anything, I was biased against that bogus over priced Roush package. And, as I mentioned before, I'm considering a Mach 1 or SVT as my next car. I LIKE mustangs, Jesus... I've seen some mean purpose built road course stangs.
Everything else was information I got on Roush's page. Or should I say lack of info. They don't talk about the car's handling prowess or capability, plain and simple.

Just so you know though, 1.05gs doesn't impress me (JMO)...
Does it impress you? Because you seem to think it's such an amazing track car.
I admit I'm wrong in saying it handles poorly, but I still say it's not that impressive or worth the dough, especially compared to saleen now, LOL.
Oh well

Sorry, but I'm going to leave this thread now. It's getting too messy and bothersome. I think you might agree.
Have fun.

Its an apples to oranges comparison, the 200ft skidpad is always going to show less peak G's than a slalom or road course. Either way these numbers have little to do with real handling, its only showing overall grip in one situation, not really impressive. The car in my sig with its minor suspension mods will pull well over 1G on street tires on corners. This is not to say a S197 can't be made to handle well because they certainly can, but that roush is nothing special.

But I would like to add that it wasn't the 'noob' (aka me) who brought up the handling arguement, but the Vet (aka pony).

Oh well, like you said it doesn't matter.

This thread is basically dead at this point, my bad.
