I think you can lift the front end of pretty heavy cars with about 500HP. That's about what it takes for a MCSS, which is not light at all, nor "rear heavy"

That is a factory bone stock 99 VR4 tested in Popular Mechanics when it was new against several other cars to find the quickest in the quarter mile

With the right tires/suspension you can lift front tires of a mustang with a touch over 300. Doesn't take much...

Can you post a picture of one of these? With the hardtop actually 1/2 way retracted? I've never seen a retractable hardtop T-Bird, and don't really see how a square-bird would have one since the trunk opens the wrong way...

Isnt a mustang quite a bit lighter? I think an MCSS is 3600lbs or so, maybe a little less.

And I was talking about stock suspension..which isnt really that firm on these cars..but yeah, with slicks probably..or something close
