PP2 does look good but a manual transmission only. I still say keep the Camaro.

from reviews I've seen the pp2 package performs better shifting on a road course with the 6spd compared to the pp1 with the 10spd auto. Don't know for sure but maybe the 10 spd could be retuned to work different on the rod course?
From what I read the Performance Pack cars (either 1 or 2) do not have sufficient cooling to handle the road courses. Infact I recall reading somewhere that a PP2 car overheated when it was being tested around a road course. I need to find this article.
I read about a guy overheating his 2015 coyote and cooked the engine doing a brake stand burnout...think I'm just goin to wax mine and get a carnauba buzz!! lol then beat on the fox - My s550 will shut off when it gets warm, I believe I read that in the manual - I let it idle too long once and it shut off - an indicator on the dash told me when it was ok to restart - I'm assuming it was too warm.
Edit - I was more concerned about drag racing and overheating…!
Ok found it here.

Well, the results of Car and Driver Lightning Lap 2018 are in, and it hasn't been kind to Ford.
Not only did the Corvette ZR1 demolish the three times more expensive Ford GT - 6 seconds faster at VIR, same day, same drivers....

... but....
The Mustang GT PP2 consistently overheated in as few as 3 laps, and continued to overhead even when cool down laps were thrown in between hot laps.
Here is the exact quote from Car and Driver:
"But with no differential cooler, the rear axle overheated every time we took the Mustang out, often in as few as three hot laps, and even with easy laps staggered between them."
So there you have, leaving out the coolers was, again, a major fail by Ford.
So now, what? Wait for Performance Pack 3?

^^ 12 g’s - I’d be terrified to curb rash them - high commander would never approve buying them anyway lol
Not sure if that’s American $ but that’s my supercharger right there
