I think I've got some 'hot iron' laying around the garage somewhere.....I'll be back as soon as I dust a few off.....:)


Well, here she is.....a forest green metallic 70' Chevelle SS 454, yeah, I remember this one from back in 'the day'. Nascar doesn't like making 'right' turns....this baby doesn't like making turns at all. Smokin' them in a straight line is what this iron is all about.

I battled this 'traction challenged' beast for three laps just to get one good lap....I'll be back after I send this dog to obedience school.

Splits were:32.299/1:12.341 I'll try to refine this car some tomorrow.
 
Very fun challenge! I love these combos where you have to be very gentle with the throttle...even though I'm not very good at it.

1'49.323 / Dodge Charger Super Bee 426 Hemi / 716hp / S3's / mullen_power

1'51.822 / Shelby Mustang G.T 350R / 496hp / S2's / mullen_power

I didn't realise I was running the Stang on Sport Mediums until I checked my replay, so I might try again on S3's next time.

Edit:

Got a few laps done with the Shelby Mustang on S3's earlier today, not happy with the time but it will do for now.

Cool, I might try the Chevy later on... doubt I can match your fast time though 👍 well done!
 
tried this nice challenge in the r/t and the charger 350 but without the tcs i'm chanceless and hopeless tho el cap is my ultimate favvie track. if you might consider, sti, to make a separate class for tcs users then i'm in :)
 
Hi Fella's....It appears I have found a lil bit more in the tank of the Mustang!:D

^Grip levels leave something to be desired lol, but thats what makes this Car great fun to drive.
I don't have a racing system on GT350 because it sounds heaps better without it!! :D
👍
