Yes, this is completely legit. We have a Mustang Shelby GT lined up (not GT500). 317 HP at the crank. 3500+ lbs curb weight. Looking for a stock or lightly modded 350Z.

We are shooting 10 different match-ups, a few of which also include:

*Corvette ZR1 vs Viper ACR
*Nissan GT-R vs Porsche 997 TT
*2010 SS Camaro vs SRT8 Challenger
*2008 M3 vs MB C63


We will be shooting at Irwindale Speedway. 1/8 mile Drag - not a 1/4 but also means drivers can't bank on their cars to save them from a poor start. Custom road course for the show and slalom.

Ultimately it's a fun day at the track, a chance watch some great cars go head to head, and an opportunity to show up a Mustang GT.

Upgraded suspension, brakes, performance exhaust etc minimal or no horsepower gains.

The Z already has the weight advantage.

This isn't a straight up comparison of cars. It's as much about the driver and the ability to bring it on camera as anything else.

We need a firm commitment asap. Who's game?

No catch. It is what is. You come out for the day with your 350z. Have fun, get free track time, talk a little trash on the Mustang, show of your driving skills and represent your car, community and self.

Royal Purple will be giving out some swag. Lunch and refreshments will provided all day. It's not open to the public (we have to protect the results until airing in the new year), but you can bring along a buddy.

email theforumwars@gmail.com asap if you're interested. We need to lock a 350Z right away.
