Mustangs don't even handle like BMWs, let alone Formula cars of any genre! Is it safe to say that you haven't driven a Mustang with the Cobra suspension? It's quite different from a stock Mustang. According to a google search of previous rec.aviation postings, you're Mustang has the 2.8L six. It's not exactly a Cobra, even with suspension upgrades. Plus, the BMW probably does handle better than a Cobra (Mustang Cobra, not AC Cobra, of course). -- __!__ Jay and Teresa Masino ___(_)___ http://www2.ari.net/jmasino ! ! ! http://www.oceancityairport.com http://www.oc-adolfos.com |

Mustang has the 2.8L six. It's not exactly a Cobra, even with suspension upgrades. Only difference is in straight-line acceleration -- which is still pretty zippy with 200 horsepower in a car that weighs practically nothing. A local Mustang guru told me that the lighter 6 cylinder engine in our "Cobra clone" makes it handle better than the original, simply due to better weight distribution. -- Jay Honeck Iowa City, IA Pathfinder N56993 www.AlexisParkInn.com "Your Aviation Destination" |
