Good Battle

EDWYER · 07-27-2021, 04:57 PM

What battle?

NKGK20 · 07-27-2021, 05:00 PM

Useless video. Just wasted 11minutes of my life I'll never get back. Thanks bro!

Alfonso235i · 07-27-2021, 05:01 PM

Why are they comparing these two cars? At least compare it to the shelby gt350. Not a Mustang gt with an appearance package.

KingMidas · 07-27-2021, 05:13 PM

Why would they do some shit like this and not race them??

A 2021 Mustang GT has 460 horsepower. Why is this not a valid comparison?

Great question.

evilalien · 07-27-2021, 05:50 PM

In my opinion, this video is pointless.

Vic55 · 07-27-2021, 06:01 PM

The OP created click bait with the word "battle" in the subject title but the good members who posted before me saved me some precious time!!!!

For this I thank you.

Jbonly21 · 07-27-2021, 06:11 PM

Still waiting for the battle, smh.

The Mach 1 has a Shelby 350 engine.

No sir it does not! Please do your homework before posting.
It has the tremec 6 speed from the gt350 but the voodoo 5.2l was only available with the shelby.

Great question.

Because a gt is a Mustang with a v8 and some performance(ish) parts. A shelby was built for a the track and a true performance car, like a fully fledged m car. Shelby can compare to an M, a gt is better compared to a 440.

Right? I'm glad I didn't waste the whole video and just fast forwarded.

So wouldn't/shouldn't a Shelby be aligned with, and a more applicable competitor to, the competition model M4? The GT against a non-comp M4 seems entirely appropriate.

I'm embarrassed that this is Canadian. Me and Bob are going to write a strongly-worded letter of concern.

lol did the title not say battle of the manuals? A comp with the auto is a very different car. So no, I stand by my opinion shelby to m4 manual is the proper comparison. But soon I'll be able to give you an actual comparison.

Well I'm going to order my g80 soon, but I do know someone with a g82 so that may not be a bad idea. I just meant I could give an honest comparison soon enough.
Hell, anyone in south florida up to joining me and comparing the g8x to the shelby let me know.

I'd better not react, since I already got the sneers of the MT community before, but anyway, I'am pigheaded.

I was instructed to believe that MT is not about brute performance or efficiency but all about the connection and the control. When you're into numbers, go for AT.

So when I see this perfect subjective review about "feel", members start complaining it's not a measured track battle and by consequence worthless? I'am a bit confused...

MT is an inferior and outdated technology. It is not actually for anyone that cares about modern engineering and performance excellence. Only reviews that matter are subjective when featuring an optional MT only available in an inferior model variant.
