Yeah, that seemed to be a one-off lap, but stickier tires don't hurt on the PP2.

And yes, I agree, this might have some potential.

IMO, the Mustang series is just never as "serious" and seems to need significant extra development to bring them up to that level. The GT350s were far too expensive to justify the performance, but performance was finally pretty good. PP2 and Bullit were the point that they finally got "serious" IMO. It's just that they should have had these cars back in 2016-2017 or so. The Mach 1 may finally surpass the 1LE with a healthy edge, but man it's been such a long time to get here. But again, I like the 350, PP2, Bullits and this Mach 1 concept. Finally.
