All american competition
Who do you think would win if the Saleen S7, Mosler MT900 Photon, and Ford Gt went head to head on a road course (endurance or not)?

Re: All american competition
GT would lose hands down. Umm.. saleen and mosler would be hard... I'd probably take the mosler, but it'd be close. The mosler has a ls6 in it I believe and the saleen has a Fe. The weights are pretty similar, and the stances are both fairly low. I would have to say in a road race it'd depend on the driver, and in a drag race it'd depend on the gearing. It's almost too close imo.

Re: All american competition
theres no doubt the GT come in way last, i think the Mosler would be a little faster than the Saleen because its a lot closer to a race car, its more of a no frills car than the S7

Re: All american competition
That's my take on it. The mosler is just so blatantly a track car put onto street tires. Also it's tied for the GT as the cheapest of the three. So yeah, with whatever money you saved by not buying the S7 you could use to send the MT900 to lingenfelter, buy a nice garage for it, admission to places like Nardo, nordschleife, wherever. Not a bad deal.

Re: Re: All american competition
As far as topspeed though Im gonna go with the saleen
. The molser is more of a sprint car. |

but according to mosler co. the MT900 although not verified should be able to reach above 200. The S7 doesn't do a whole lot higher than that so I'm not sure what advantage that would give you.

Re: All american competition
The s7s est topspeed is 220 which I firmly believe not to mention the 03 -04 are perfected have 50+ more hp and way better gearing. They ll give a molser a run on accel and will mos def beat it on topend. after all the s7 is perfectly simetrical.
0-60 in 3.2 hell yea and the new s7 go o-1o0 in less then usaully clockd time of 8.8. now due to the gearing there running uppper sevens hehehe.
