Jooyoung99 was kind enough to take me out in his GT350 this afternoon....it really is a sweet car. Comfortable with a bitching sound. The size and interior did leave me wanting a bit, but I dug it.

So basically driving it just re-affirmed what I already thought. Never though I'd own a mustang, but this one is back on my short list for potential next car.

Did I mention it sounds awesome?

Now to get some time in a GT4 and Z06.

Thanks again Jooyoung99! It was great meeting you today.

Pleasantly surprised yesterday. A very nice guy at track event let me sit in his gt350 with track pack.
Plenty of head room with the recaros.
Order for a 2017 goes in tomorrow.

No drive / ride in it?
Keep me posted on ETA 2017.

Driven a gt350 but under brake in. And owner wasn't braking it in the way you do.
I was worried about seats being to high. They felt great. I'll give it a go. Tomorrow is first day for 2017 gt35 orders. My buddy was nice enough to give me his only 2017 allocation. I'll bite and see how it does as a DD and stand in for Farmers old beater around Sebring.

Wait until you drive your new Shelby - you're going to love it.

Cool. Was this at Sebring on Saturday? Which one- which color?

997rs4.0

Yes, super nice guy with a grey gt350 track pack. He was parked very close to the radicals under roof.

This one? If so that was me.... it was nice to meet you! Were you the one I offered to sit in my Recaros?

Jooyoung99

My GT350 is broken. There is a really bad rattle and vibration around 4500 rpm. Taking it to the dealer tomorrow. Hopefully, it's something simple.

^A911SUV, are you using after market track pads? If so, what are you using?

997rs4.0

Yes, thanks again for letting me sit in it. I was a bit worried about the head room clearance. Have tried a few different mustangs but always felt like not enough room for helmet.
Recaros in your car felt great. Perfect for DD and occasional track use.

Just been to the Ford dealer to spec my 2017 gt350. All the info is there but still not open to put specs in.

Good news is that the track pack is standard for 2017. So is the R wing. Not sure about the front lip but I guess they will run the R lip to balance the aero.

When I emailed my contact at Ford performance she sent me the info for the ford GT. I immediately replied that I will take 2. later got the correct info about gt350 and not ford GT.

Yes on stock but about to put my 2nd Front set on since they're thin already... still stock pads- FP part #FR3Z2001J made by Ferodo. I haven't seen aftermarket vendors make a track-set specifically for the GT350 just yet so hopefully soon.

Anyone using aftermarket wheel for the track? Would like to put some cup2s on it.
And keep the supersports for street use.

RS 4.0 - I think the 2017 has the track package wing as standard not the R wing (same as the one you see here in the paddock at Sebring) - they're fantastic looking.

You could be right, I'll check when I get back home.
