Pretty impressive stats, especially on the braking.
CURB WEIGHT (F/R DIST) | 4,028 lb (55/45%) |
Agreed, the next generation should be faster and better. But Ford has admitted that Shelbys always get the best. They built the GT350 and its an exceptional car. then the downgraded to the Mach 1 and now they have upgraded to the Dark Horse. The next ripper will be a Shelby just as history as provenI believe the next gen should be always faster of the previous one.
If dark horse is the new 350... Then im not sure.
Curious from the new pirelli compound. Good braking for sure and the big incognito of the 10speed.
At 3800lbs is 200 300 lbs lighter than gt500. But heavier than gt350
I will wait to "judge" and see what someone can do with the car in a real race track.
any way we can put this brakes on S550 cars :?Pretty impressive stats, especially on the braking.

They will be running the Dark Horse R I guess ? Lot's of people asking if Dean is looking to support a few Mustang Challenge cars. I wonder if there will be arrive and drive options as well for this series.Well, I think Kohr will be running at least one of these next year, so I'll get some first hand observations.
I don't know, that's above my pay grade, I just make them go fast.They will be running the Dark Horse R I guess ? Lot's of people asking if Dean is looking to support a few Mustang Challenge cars. I wonder if there will be arrive and drive options as well for this series.
Its 4000 pounds, not 3800. The S550 was 3700-3800I believe the next gen should be always faster of the previous one.

The stopping is in the tire and mag-ride/abs tuning. There is nothing special about these brakes. Same basic 6 Piston caliper that "may" be radial mounted, but it uses a bridge bolt (Every Performance Pack since 2015) rather than the much stiffer Fixed bridge caliper of the GT350. Rear brakes are basically GT500/GT350 and uses the GT500 rear architecture but the knuckle is designed for the leading radial mount caliper. Fords specifications for the brakes are vague at best, the official press release data is from Sept of 2022. They show the same brake system optionally available on everything including the ECOBoost. 390MM Front and 355MM Rear. Fronts could be swapped if you install all new knuckles etc (assuming they are not using the standard steel knuckles with a bolt on bracket lol) the rear would be prohibitive because everything is different (GT500) Axles, Hubs etc. And then you are limited to 19" wheels.any way we can put this brakes on S550 cars :?
