I sometimes pi$$ and moan about my ZR1 but I really do admire it.
These people are so FOS.

I really need to pump up the tires and take a stealth illegal ride in my forever hangared Quasar Blue Beauty....no license....no insurance!

The racing calibration of the engine still will comply with emissions laws

Well, it just means there are two fuel/timing maps in the new mustangs. button. key whatever- good on them for having the memory space for two maps. That means supercharged guys can have a gasoline map and an E85 one without having to buy new parts-just a reflash.

Didja read the comments below the article? How about the one that the "expert" says we only run on 3 of 4 valves when the key is on "normal".
Ummmmmmmmm......wtf?!
"The closest to this concept was the early 1990s Corvette ZR1 that several noted below. The Lotus-developed V-8 ran on 3 of the 4 valves per cylinder and one of the two injectors per cylinder unless a separate power key was inserted on the console for 100% power. The Veyron mentioned below similarly uses a second key with the first to override the speed governor (set for the tire ratings of about 220 mph). It also alters the ride height and aero effects, I believe."
