Pretty much every car is slower doing 5-60 than it is from 0-60. This is because when accelerating from a stop, you can dump the clutch at high RPMs (or brake torque the car to high RPMs if it is an automatic). When you accelerate from 5-60, you have no choice but to accelerate from low RPMs because the car is already…

This is a battle of the beaters, good taste is not a prerequisite. The fact that Fox Mustangs are plentiful and cheap is a major driving force for its continued success. And California cars are rust free, so shove that rustang comment in the tailpipe of the Benz.

You're thinking the wrong way my friend.

Just Fox Body Mustangs, not counting their mercury counterparts: 546

They're both going to break. Only one can be fixed with a run to Autozone.

Gotta go with Fox Mustang Because aftermarket everything. If you can dream it up, there's probably the parts available to do it.

As much as I love the Merc, there's no way in hell that you could make one more exciting to drive than the Fox Body on the cheap. However, as fast as the Fox is, it has absolutely zero refinement or class. It's a tough choice, but I chose the performance option.

Idk if you're getting what he's saying. When tires are spun doing burnouts the tire and rim move. Basically the rim stopped spinning and the tire kept moving. Yes you should blame the brakes because they create the 1.5g's of force. At that high of force any tire will not have enough friction to stay on the rim.

Tire-to-track grip usually is the limiting factor in high-performance cars, and not only when it comes to breaking. In this application however, P Zero Trofeo R's apparently have enough road grip to expose wheel-to-tire grip as the limiting factor in the Z/28's performance. So it really is a case of the efficiency of…
