looks like the cobra was faster. rx7 had the jump on all the races, couldnt tell who florred it first, looked like the 7 tho. and once the other person starts its really hard to catch up if your the same speed. but once they both went at the same time the saleen was pulling on him, then he started braking because he was gonna run into the car in front of him and couldnt change lanes beause the 7 was there.

I think the FD won personaly...watch the last race again and watch the saleens tail lights he doesn't put on the breaks.Good Kill NoCab!

not all saleens have engine or any other major power performance mods...



some of them are just looks, suspension, and exhaust.

it didn't look like they were racing at all, and if they were, the guy in the mustang couldn't drive at all.. i hardly heard his engine at all... not a jump in the exhaust from downshifting or from hard acceleration.. i know those cars are a lot louder than that.

That's not completely true...



A true Saleen Mustang is around 55,000+ dollars, because nearly the whole car from front bumper to back bumper is modified, including the engine, which I believe comes supercharged. However, you can purchase parts seperately for your average, everyday Mustang. But that doesn't make it a true Saleen.

they make a saleen thats only exhaust, sus. and looks, its just the 281, its only 285 hp. the supercharged ones are the s281 and s281 extreme.
