Ford Supercar races Nismo Touring Champion! Falcon V8 vs Super GT 350Z // THIS vs THAT Down Under
Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары
The Hoonigan Digital Swap Meet is LIVE! Check it out on our eBay Store ➤ www.ebay.com/str/hoonigan
A match you thought could only happen in Gran Turismo we’re bringing to you IRL straight from Australia! Con’s Ford Falcon EL was built by legendary Aussie racer Glenn Seton and has all the cool racecar things like dual fuel ports and a ITBs on its 5.0L Windsor small block. Nismo built a certified champion when it made Dale’s Super GT 350Z, and it also has the cool racecar things like loads of carbon fiber, giant radiator ducts, and a VQ35 so spicy it needs a restrictor.

These are both Iconic cars. I used to race that Ford around Bathurst on my Playstation.

The owners are the type of guys that do those weird Rally races in Gran Turismo that gifted race cars as prizes 😂
Man that Falcon brings back some memories, only wish it was the 1997 variant with the same colours but the #30 that Seton used to win the championship that year. I grew up going to Oran Park, Eastern Creek and Bathurst to see that era of car race, V8 Supercar's still have their charm now, but that time from the mid 90's to the mid 2000's was so special as a fan.

About Hawk pads: I use the 5.0’s for autocross and daily driving. They’re fantastic, BUT I do NOT recommend the HPS pads. I had them on an 03 Mazda protege and they were terrible to daily drive on, just my personal experience. Now about the 5.0’s: I’ve overheated them a couple times at tail of the dragon to the point they were bellowing smoke yet they never faded! They’re very consistent and great for autoX when they’re hot. Great pad, can’t recommend them enough!

I think it has more to do with the gearing, 1st gear on those old supercars was so long, they used to regularly break axles or burn out clutches from a standing start, especially if they had a full tank (like Bathurst).
@DR3ADER1
11 ай бұрын
Long gears and the weight gap led to the Falcon losing 2-1. However, if a GT500 spec 350Z competed instead of the GT300 (which is impossible because those cars are technically "loaned" from the big 3 Japanese Manufacturers, and are often donated to museums after their tenure on the track ends with a few exceptions such as the 90s GT500 Supra that's rotting outside of a shop in the Japanese Midlands), the Falcon would lose 2-0.
Regardless of your preferred spec, you got to admit, the internal young fella inside us all is losing it right now!
