There will be tons of base 6 cylinder cars on the street so nobody will give it a second look.

No lap times have been published, that I know of, but I suspect we are looking at something like the outgoing M3. However, these 5.0 Fords are easy to hot rod with headers doing wonders.
1.5 seconds faster than the outgoing Boss at Michigan's Grattan Raceway.
