I’m still not sure what I think about a Mustang with paddle shifters, regardless it sure looks fast. He did pass a GTR and 911 GT3  with it... probably the car not driver! Haha!

I think a Gt350 would be better?

That’s the one I’d buy. A little more conventional and more affordable for me .

Flat  plane is the best right?

I am the driver. For experience sake, everyone wants to try 760 hp.

It makes a hellacious noise that you don’t get without it.

A good friend of mine is supposed to be getting one shortly if the deal on his Roush Mustang goes through. I’m excited because that means I’ll get to drive it every once in awhile, or his Roush Raptor.

Ask your good friend if he will let me be his friend too.

Am I a bad Jalop because I never use the paddle shifters in my GT? They’re probably great for the track, but seem sort of worthless on teh streetz.

Nah. Seems like overkill unless you have to use them. I prefer them in my M5, mainly because that  one time I shifted the bump stick the wrong way.

Is this one of those exotic car driving experiences? I’d like to try on but I wouldn’t want the person sitting next to me yapping about going to fast. Seems like he barely got into the capabilities of the car.

He got up in the triple digits pretty quick.  That’s Texas highway speeds.  Nice.

Never seen a track allow shorts.

Until recently, I had never seen a range allow Hawaiian shirts but, society has changed.
