I watched a touring car race last week on the SPEED channel. It was in Australia and they said it was their version of NASCAR. I did a little research and Ford Australia makes a brand new Ford Falcon (it looks like a Taurus) with a 5.4 liter, 32 valve modular V8 engine option. The Racecar has a 600 hp 5.0, Holinger 6 speed manual gearbox, 9" Ford rearend and a top speed of 186 mph. Anyone know anything else about the Falcon? Why can't we get a 5.4 liter mod motor in a new Mustang?
