FORD, if you read this,, please, now that the mustang is a sports car, don't ruin it.. keep evolving and following the path to make a world respected sports car.. I have a 15 performance package and this is the only mustang I have ever been interested in sense the 03-04 cobras.
i came here to hear something what this PP2 !? A tune with CAI or also the more aggressive manifold ? Tell me pls, i think in germany we have to buy it from Ford racing aftermarket right ?
Eugene Conner I know that on a straight line the Mustang is faster, it has the same power as the Camaro but less weight, it's obviously going to win. What I meant is that if the Perf pack 2 is faster or atleast equal to the Camaro SS 1LE on a track, I doubt it, but it'll be cool to see them atleast equal.
The performance pack 1 was embarrassed by the 1LE according to test that i have seen but the performance pack 2 looks much better than the standard gt and I'm sure it is capable of speeds that we couldn't really enjoy on the street.
Awesome video man! Sorry we didn’t get a chance to talk at the event, but hopefully we’ll meet again. My review of the PP2: www.guysgab.com/2018-ford-mustang-gt-performance-pack-2-track-day/
Performance level two cost $6,500. I have no problem with that at all. But they force you to upgrade to a 301A interior package which cost $2,000. So you have to pay for those features even if you don’t care for them. Ford is fucking up. Camaro ss 1LE doesn’t make you pay for any extra interior package. Only problem is that in order to get blind spot assistance in the camaro, u do need To upgrade the interior package. Ford Mustang 300A Features, Plus: • 9 Speaker Stereo System with Single-CD Player • Ambient Lighting with MyColor® and 4.2" Cluster • Dual-Zone Electronic Automatic Temperature Control (DEATC) • Selectable Drive Modes with Toggle Switches • SiriusXM® Radio • SYNC®3 - Enhanced Voice Recognition Communications and Entertainment System • 8" LCD Capacitive Touchscreen in Center Stack • AppLink® • 911 Assist® • Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ • Smart-Charging USB ports - two (2)
A 987 hp , 2800 pound , twin charged pony car would be nice ... I mean please build me something that won't get embarrassed by a 365 hp all wheel drive Kia Stinger for fucks sake 😠
Keep your hand on the shifter when going through the gears quickly. Not back and fourth. That's why people miss gears. And, tell Ford to put some actual "daytime night" DRL's in front in place of those dull, dim tri-bar tooth picks.
As cool as the performance pack 2... and it is very cool..... magnetic ride control just doesn't make sense. Magnetic ride control is a luxury, id much rather get some track tuned adjustable dampers a la Boss 302.
i really wish ford put a good interior in this ford gt 500 .thats the only reason many not buying this car.and if need a complete perfomance put up a new version as gt500r with no comfort but full of action
Why didn't they build a mustang without the fastback designs, they should've build it along with the fastback, both are mustang for mustang lovers that never had a fastback back then..???????
Idk why ford doesn’t just make a legit performance pack and just one for the GT. I know they don’t want to hurt sales or whatever on the gt 350 but come on. I’m a camaro guy and I know a mustang can compete if they gave it all the gt350 goodies and cut some weight. Mustangs have great potential I just don’t get why ford doesn’t put real effort into the GT.
those are not sport car essentials. these are meant to go fast at the track and be able to drive home with no issues. Its a purist thing that only those of us hardcore car guys admire and respect.
kubanskiloewe like I said, only real car guys will go for the purest car. Being faster does not mean more fun. You can feel the Camaro extra weight and it’s massive transfer. The mustang is honestly more fun to drive. You’d have to test both and corned with them to understand. On the challenger you feel the rear wobble, and the car has s high center of gravity. I have driven all 3 cars and have owned two of them already
lol, i drove Mustang 2012-14 automatic and the new one (shifter) and now the new Camaro (automatic) too as well as a few thousand a C7Z51 shifter. I had most fun in the Mustangs and Camaro automatic. ....C7 shifter is bad because of shitty gear steps; 5th to long, 6th useless and 7th only for cruising. It has NOTHING to do with fun or competition gear for a track or for our fast autobahn; ok for autobahn its alright most times but sometimes against performance cars you feel the bad gear steps in the C7 manual !!
On the track keep it third BS. Ford tried that same thing during my experience and guess what. Not ! You drive a manual and you down shift and up shift. I did it my way and the instructor eventually said ok.
Of coarse wait tell 2019, it always takes Ford 2 years to catch up. Venom kills demons in 2 years, GT 500 kills Camaro sure in 2 years. How anyone can get excited about these cars is beyond me.
Well, it's kinda true, when Chevy beated the 2011 GT500 with the 2012 ZL1 and made basically everyone forget that the Boss 302 existed, Ford was like "Put more powaaaahhh!!!" and we got the 2013 GT500, with little changes over the 2011 one, it was faster in a straight line than the ZL1, but the ZL1 was the better handling one. Then we got the Z/28 and Ford was like "We need a track Mustang!!!!!" and we got the GT350R (yes I know that the 302 was supposed to be a track mustang, but the ZL1 had better handling, and it wasn't even 100% track focused). Now ford has it more difficult, they have 1 of 2 options, either keep chasing Chevy with the GT500 and make it a Track Car to rival the ZL1 1LE, or they go Dodge's way and build a Drag Car. You can say they can just do both, but I say fuck that, it would take too much money, but if they managed to do that, well... Damn Ford, props to you.
Great times! And great video bro 🙌
StangMode bro I was looking for you in the video and was surprised to find you!!!😂 sickkkk
StangMode You guys are lucky to get them early, not sure when will we get the 2018 gt Mustang in Australia.
This is the fastest Mustang ever produced. Ford ain't playing around!
Julius Jones It's the fastest "Mustang GT", not the fastest Mustang. That title would go to the 2013-2014 Shelby GT500 until the new one comes out.
I love the PP2 wheels!
Royal Crimson best color by far. Agree 100%
Love the Royal Crimson. Hope it sticks around.
I got a 1966 Mustang Coupe and that 64 and 1/2 was the coolest thing ever.
I really don't understand why you don't have over 100k subs. Your the best man. 🤙🤙
Wow! Nice! I'm a Hellcat guy & this has got my interest, believe me! 😄
Yes! Performance Pack 2 fits my type! Hope that shown alu weels are included! Like them also veeeery much (:
Stangmode is one of my favorite youtubers definitely recommend highly. Check him out! Great dude!
Auto Fanatic is much better
Thanks man you really answered some questions for me. I love that Royal Crimson too.
Regardless of the nice rain, it looked like you had a great time at Ford. Great Video man 👌🏽
Maybe that poster is a hint to a future GT500 design?🤔 Hope Ford stays with the roots of the original GT 500.
Dude...the weather? What's the odds! A twister...great video.
That looked like alot of fun. Ford is tight lipped and so is Dodge. 2019 is going to be a good year.
Well put together, Thanks for the info! Keep posting great videos! Wish I was there. GT500 can't come to soon!!!
Neo, you guys have such great racecourses in Ohio! Some of the scenic routes, also challenging!............nice review!
PP2 makes this car look awesome!!!
Thank you. It seems not alot of people are covering this.
So was this PP2 track day a one time thing or are having it at different tracks across the country?
I saw the Shelby Gt500 in Michigan
Car sounds awesome!!
Nice video, love those wheels, do ya know if those will be the wheels on the PP2? tks
PP2 mustang you drove sounded spectacular!
0:31 is this crimson royal red color?
Good upgrades, but still probably not at the same track level when compared to the 1le.
Lmao the engineer was like " ok i suggest putting it on sports mode " 😁😂😂
Great video! I just subbed ya. '18 A10 GT set up just like StangMode's but with DSS 1/2 shafts and Nitto 05R's. The '18 is just a blast to own!
Awesome work great video looks like a lot of fun!!!🤟🏼🤣🤟🏼🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸😘💪🏼💪🏼

I wouldn't give the pp2 a chance,simply because of it's mt82 trans.
That kills it,if not for that pos it would be a winner.
i came here to hear something what this PP2 !? A tune with CAI or also the more aggressive manifold ? Tell me pls, i think in germany we have to buy it from Ford racing aftermarket right ?
Will this Perf Pack 2 finally be faster than a Camaro SS 1LE? Because the Perf Pack 1 keeps up relatively well, but it ultimately loses to the 1LE.
Starfire Storm I bet it'll be nearly as fast around a track or maybe match the 1LE pace. I doubt it'll beat it, but if it does I'd be excited.
On a mile run, the Mustang is faster. Road & Track did a video where the Mustang pulled on it.
Eugene Conner I know that on a straight line the Mustang is faster, it has the same power as the Camaro but less weight, it's obviously going to win. What I meant is that if the Perf pack 2 is faster or atleast equal to the Camaro SS 1LE on a track, I doubt it, but it'll be cool to see them atleast equal.
LMFAO GTFOOH

My review of the PP2: www.guysgab.com/2018-ford-mustang-gt-performance-pack-2-track-day/
Nice recap of your experience- enjoy the content thanks!
The rims look GREAT! BTW Ford just had to make this pp2 to keep up with the Camaro.
Grabonator86 the pp1 is faster than the camaro 1lE so wym?
How come that color is not one of the selection
I think it was a 2017-18 color, but not available for 2019. A shame as it was really nice.

I think the venom kills demons reference is alluding to a new street-legal Cobra Jet rather than the gt500
Dalton v the new Cobra Jet won't be street legal, "Venom kills Demons" is definitely in reference to new GT500.
In what universe would a Cobra Jet ever be street legal.
A 987 hp , 2800 pound , twin charged pony car would be nice ... I mean please build me something that won't get embarrassed by a 365 hp all wheel drive Kia Stinger for fucks sake 😠
what are the differences between the 1 and 2 minus the tires?
MagneRide® Damping System with Track Inspired Calibration

• Unique Track-inspired Chassis, Stability Control, EPAS, and ABS Tuning
• Unique Track-inspired Springs and Sway Bar
thank you!
The only similar stang was the notchback..
1. Venom doesn’t kill Demons.
Great video!
Thanks for sharing!!
Great video man 👍
How was the steering in comparison to the PP1 ?
I have to have a manual and that Chinese Getrag does not feel very good at all.
Your videos mate always good and informative
Keep your hand on the shifter when going through the gears quickly. Not back and fourth. That's why people miss gears. And, tell Ford to put some actual "daytime night" DRL's in front in place of those dull, dim tri-bar tooth picks.
I wouldn't mind waiting till 2020 just to say I have 2020 Shelby GT500. It just sounds better to me.
As cool as the performance pack 2... and it is very cool..... magnetic ride control just doesn't make sense. Magnetic ride control is a luxury, id much rather get some track tuned adjustable dampers a la Boss 302.
..."Venon Kills DEMONS"!+... #callingoutdodge😳
Man I want one😢
erbody wants that aggressive evo X front fascia
Hoping for a GT5OOR with attention to The Track rather than "venom kills demons" g00 gah....
Axis: Bold As Love I hope the new GT500 murders everything at the dragstrip and track. All around performer.
Maybe it'll be called the GT500KR to make a reference to the classic car
CRIMSON RED AND THE WHITE ARE BEST COLORS ..
So you didn’t wreck it like the ZL1 lmao
make a video about the bronco PLEASE
Awesome video 🇦🇺
I like your videos. Keep up the great work!!!
Great work! Keep it up!!
What have you heard about the possibility of a Mustang GT 600?
Peter Carey nah let's step it up to a GT1000
There is a shelby 1000
I hate it when these guys put music background while driving in the video, let us hear the damn cars, thats why we here for,,,
Jim really just said that and nobody knows about it
Great video and insight. Thanks!
i really wish ford put a good interior in this ford gt 500 .thats the only reason many not buying this car.and if need a complete perfomance put up a new version as gt500r with no comfort but full of action
I'm surprised none of that lincoln crap broke down LOL
Great video! I’ve been a fan of yours for a while now just subscribed. Building a mustang channel myself any words of wisdom?
😍 i love mustangs
Aren't these level 2 special order??
is this a 1le competitor
Carlos Anaya Yep
Hope so, it was kinda sad seeing the Perf Pack 1 getting demolished by the Camaro SS 1LE
Awesome video 👌
I love mustang i have one myself but i think this new desing is similar to the nissan GTR
You made love 💪💪💪❤❤👌👌
Why didn't they build a mustang without the fastback designs, they should've build it along with the fastback, both are mustang for mustang lovers that never had a fastback back then..???????
Ur voice is angelic
Before you watch the video. There’s nothing new about the GT500.
Idk why ford doesn’t just make a legit performance pack and just one for the GT. I know they don’t want to hurt sales or whatever on the gt 350 but come on. I’m a camaro guy and I know a mustang can compete if they gave it all the gt350 goodies and cut some weight. Mustangs have great potential I just don’t get why ford doesn’t put real effort into the GT.
SUPERSLOWSS 713 24 what does the GT350 have that the performance pack level 2 doesn't (apart from the 5.2L)
Looks like u had a great! Nice. Good, enjoyable vid!
So jealous
Instead of all of this performance level shit, why not just get gt350?
and still no HUD and no sunroof available .....which the Camaro offers !
those are not sport car essentials. these are meant to go fast at the track and be able to drive home with no issues. Its a purist thing that only those of us hardcore car guys admire and respect.
Camaro is still faster with all those Goodies ;-) lol
kubanskiloewe like I said, only real car guys will go for the purest car. Being faster does not mean more fun. You can feel the Camaro extra weight and it’s massive transfer.

kubanskiloewe those cars are rubbish. Test the current generation and in manual. Also test the performance options and not just the base models.
On the track keep it third BS. Ford tried that same thing during my experience and guess what. Not ! You drive a manual and you down shift and up shift. I did it my way and the instructor eventually said ok.
Of coarse wait tell 2019, it always takes Ford 2 years to catch up. Venom kills demons in 2 years, GT 500 kills Camaro sure in 2 years. How anyone can get excited about these cars is beyond me.
Eye 4 Eye which one of the 3 has been in constant production since inception? Chevy and Dodge are always chasing the mustang.
If you knew anything, it’s Ford that revolutionizes this type of market.
Well, it's kinda true, when Chevy beated the 2011 GT500 with the 2012 ZL1 and made basically everyone forget that the Boss 302 existed, Ford was like "Put more powaaaahhh!!!" and we got the 2013 GT500, with little changes over the 2011 one, it was faster in a straight line than the ZL1, but the ZL1 was the better handling one.

You can say they can just do both, but I say fuck that, it would take too much money, but if they managed to do that, well... Damn Ford, props to you.
Starfire Storm Well put analysis.
haha you drive so slow =D
That's too much car for you son, don't embarrass yourself.
Click bait got dammit
Looks like u were scared to death.
