I would be very interested to see the results. Same independent driver. That should indicate which car is capable of faster lap times.
The FFR spec racer is designed, like the Miata spec racer, to use factory output engines, etc. They are very limited as to modifications. They do use standard drivetrains. This allows many people to enjoy competitive racing at a cost point.

The Shelbys are at a different price point. You can hardly compare a 400 HP Shelby to a 225 HP 302, etc. The Shelby would be closer compared to a Panoz spec car.

A closer comparison would be a JBL or Levy Racing car with comparable components.
