FWIW.... and not sure it will come to anything, but:
I was contacted by GM after Solo Nationals with questions about what the car would need to be a competitive autocross car. Apparently the Mustang got their attention. Hopefully the act on the information. |

Hopefully the act on the information. well... are you sworn to secrecy? hearing you say that makes me think that they are simply looking for a sales pitch, especially this late in development |

With still over a year until release, it seems like spring/shock/swaybar development (at a minimum) would still be open to change. Especially with the likelihood of multiple packages being available. |

Especially with the likelihood of multiple packages being available. 1 year before production begins is late to me. Think about the time it takes to create tooling for something like this. A "Strano Z28" with spring/shock/swaybar is exactly the kind of sales pitch I'm talking about... i don't doubt that Sam could set the car up to be faster, but i'm concered about other things.... that's why i ask if he's sworn to secrecy about what they discussed |
