I SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH IT id beat the shit out of it loks like fun....

 

IMO it would look better with gunmetal or charcole wheels, but it's still not to bad.

 

The idea isn't ricey but Volks on a Fox body just isn't right to me.....

I am not loving it, but I would like to see first hand how it handles... time attack cars have some of the best suspension setups.... I think it would be great to hang it wide open going into turns....

My 3.5" front skinnies could never do that.

 

Its too bad fox bodys handle like sloppy ass. The owner should have built a miata

 

I'm sure the Z06 owners at Sebring who get passed by fox bodies think they handle like sloppy ass too. BlueMachine on N2S runs at Sebring and he will sadly admit to getting hammered several times by Fox and SN95 cars,...Then one screw up and getting freight trained after the pass.

450hp in a 2700lb fox is no joke on the course.

that's hardly a good comparison of vehicles. I've seen Loren pass many high horsepower cars in his 100bhp Yaris at Sebring bencause the mans a damn good driver. I'm sure if you took the drivers of the Z06 and fox and swapped their cars the Z06 would be lapping the mustang like it was parked in the paddock.

 

Clearly you have never seen a fox thats purpose built for handling. You can make just about any car handle like its on rails.

 

And you can make anything run a 6 with enough money. My civic only has lowering springs and I've beaten several fox's with at least coilovers, cars that are built for autocross.

 

A fox with coilovers doesnt mean shit. Springs dont make a car handle that much better unless the previous springs were just totally wrong. The only impact they would have would be on the balance of the vehicle and lowering the center of gravity. How the suspension is setup and what type is what makes all the difference. That being said there are fox mustangs out there that are more than capable of dusting that Z06. Hell, in hot rod magazine a couple years back they had a 64 GTO that was built to spank porsches and ferraris and thats exactly what it did. Bigger body muscle cars arent exactly known for their handling. Heres the article. 1964 Pontiac GTO - Never Give Up - Featured Vehicle - Hot Rod Magazine

 

I've seen that GTO, and the fact is that type of muscle car is extremely rare. We were talking about fox bodys, and fox bodys do in fact handle like sloppy ass. I never said you couldn't make one handle well, though it is a pretty expensive task to do so compared to other vehicles of similar price.
