I saw the show too, its actually a year or so old (from prior to the TT model). In a later show they tell you that the newer street cars would be faster than the track cars. this is due to the larger diffusers that are run on the street cars (there is a regulation on the size of diffuser allowed in the race series) thus giving more down force and cornering ability. (assuming same tires of course) Pretty cool.

For most who stated the Saleen.
Man, I can't afford either of em at this time, ( yes giving the Wayne's World bow to all owners )
However, that Saleen looks more like a kit car to me. (IMO)
The GT however, PURE art, total beast, interior is sick, sound is sick, performance etc....

Either way both are sick, but to not choose the GT.... Mannnnnn I don't get it.

I'd have to go with the Saleen S7. I've ridden in both the Ford GT and a Saleen S7. I've heard Ward talk about how much fun he's had with his S7. Basically since the S7 is so rare and outrageous looking I'd have to go with it. The Ford GT is an incredible car too and quite a bang for the buck though.

Don't we have a video of you and I getting in and out of the S7 last summer at the Ford GT rally? You pretty much have to be a contortionist to get in and out of the S7. Pretty tight fit once you get in too.

Sean, We will have to get Don to practice getting in and out on the S7 so he looks professional. Then Don needs to pick up an S7 where he can have one of each.

[quote=Cudaman;831258]The FGT is a more practical car and is one of the best and very unusual car per dollar.

The S7 is the "Supermodel" type car with than 80 S7 in the world today. Its lines are stunning and it draws attention like a rock star. To drive one thru hard corners makes you feel like your heart will explode from the adrenaline rush. It will blow the FGT in all aspects.


The FGT is a more practical car and the best bang for the buck...... but as Saleen says about the S7 "Power in the hand of a few" and it is fun beyond your wildest dreams!
WOW! POWER IN THE HANDS OF A FEW!AWESOME............WHAT IS THE ACTUAL RWHP OF THE MIGHTY SALEEN S-7??????WOULD LOVE TO SEE A DYNO SHEET...................DOES ANYONE KNOW IF STEVE SALEEN PUBLISHES A DYNO SHEET ON THE SALEEN S-7???? MAYBE SOME OF U SALEEN OWNERS COULD POST ONE.IM CONSIDERING PURCHASE ,HOWEVER MY REQUIRMENTS ARE 700 RWHP ON 93 OCTANE.THANX IN ADVANCE!

Norm maybe the Alley should require a minium IQ level before a member is allowed to continually post. I can lend you a shovel, if you would like to bury yourself a little deeper.
