That whole test was a joke. Obviously an advertisement for Roush (duh it was on a Roush site).
The Saleen was 300lbs lighter, made 30 more horsepower, but was slower 0-100???? Its not like their blowers are significantly different, they are both twin screws. I think they need someone who can shift those cars and the Saleen would probably win.
The track was a joke too. The numbers just don't jive. The Saleen could do well over 1 G on the slalom course but could barely manage 1G with a stiffer suspension setup on the track?????2012 Race Red GT w/ a 5 Liter and a 6 speed
2010 Dodge Challenger R/T traded in.
'03 DBS Cobra .... Traded in, THANK GOD
'01 Ford Lightning.... Sold, sorely missed
