Never was too impressed with those S281's. My brothers IROC put 1 1/2 cars on one from a dig to 100mph a few weeks before he took it to the track and ran a 13.1 @102 with a 1.8 60' time back in '99. When he ran the S281 he thought for sure he was gonna get pasted and was actually dissapointed that the Stang was so overrated after reading all the articles that claimed they were mid to high 12 seconds cars. And for the naysayers, he let the 281 take the hit and get a fender on him before he got on it.

whats the difference? ... google images to the rescue. This is not the car obviously, but it looked exactly like this and was supercharged. Fill me in on the S281's Stopsign, I don't know much at all about the differences.?

That definately was not a stock E if it was an actual E at all and what a douche for passing on the shoulder of the road. Get that dumbass away from me when I'm racing!

I use to chat with the owner of that car on DigitalCorvettes.com in 2004. Yes it was definitely an Extreme and yes he got flamed for doing that. The car was not stock. Had a pulley sway among some other things. That was one two-valve I would not take lightly.

No it t'was an Extreme. Not sure what he ran, not even sure he ever took it to the track. I just remember him posting several videos of him ***-waxing numerous Corvettes and Cobra's.

The S351SC was one badass car though.

Yes. As Stop pointed out, Steve Saleen built mustangs in foxes too. (can't recall his first year of build....I wanna say '87 or '89).
They sold decently. I loved the way the S281SC verts with all white sportster package looked. Wish they had more ***** under the hood though.
