@1:25 sounds like a hellcat auto ?

 

[Primalzer]

On the track part of the video, the Mustang sounded like ass...chalking it up to camera positioning

And somehow down 272 HP, Mustang still somehow edged out the Hellcat on the track

 

[Gav'sPurpleZ]

i don't think that video provided any new information.

you can have all the power in the world... if you can't put it to the ground then it's useless @ a road course.... and why test an auto @ a road course ?

leave the auto for the 1/4 mile

I'd say that auto, for the road course, is probably just as fast as the manual. Probably within tenths. It's not the old 4-speed slushboxes anymore...

I was just surprised that leaving an entire 4th Gen Z/28's worth of power on the table, the Mustang was still able to edge it out.

apples to oranges to bananas in this test.

Love the ls7 z28, love the hellcat, the more I see the new body mustang loving that too.

Fuck that angle looks so good.

 

[Bru]

Love the raised yellow tire lettering

 

[Thirdgen89GTA]

Dat Ass. I too love the yellow lettering. That car is all business.

I still want to see a Z51 Stingray vs Z28 comparo. I'd love to see where the Vette stacks up without going into Z06 territory.

 

[Breze84]

Guy reminds me of Drew Peterson test driving the mustang ha...

 

[10sec]

I thought the Z28 would have been faster than that around Gingerman. The mustangs time was impressive, and I figured the Hellcat would be pretty slow.

no one cares what you thought or figured.

"There's a great 6 speed manual transmission in this car" the reviewer says about the mustang...... And all credibility is lost.....

according to [MENTION=12]Bru[/MENTION] the 2015 shifts much much better.

I think its the same trans though, no?

 

[jason05gt]

It's a revised trans. They supposedly worked to fix the complaints from the older trans.

 

[Dasfinc]

It's still a remote shifter... I think I read that they improved the bushing (similar to what I installed), but didn't see anything about internal changes?

I also find it hard to believe a 2015 GT is faster on a road course than the hellcat, makes me think the drivers aren't especially strong...

New shift linkage and the shifter is positioned closer to the driver, away from the cupholders.

I read that they made some internal changes as well. I think they "improved" the syncros.

The Z28 may be a great track car and look sick but its still got that shit interior. Mustang did really well especially considering it costs way less than the 2 other cars. Hellcat is as expected.. Lots of power that it can't do anything useful with.
