I am no Circuit Tuner (I'm a Drag tuner) but from what I remember, the GT350 is very front-heavy, so you're going to get loads of wheelspin.
 

just a quick update after some testing.
i went to the professional version of the muscle car one, and i put on my racing tires, and all i can say is wow. i got more consistent lap times then any other car i have ever driven, and i beat my previous best time by 2 full seconds, and that one had a higher PP value.

thanks again for the link, i just have to learn how to drive better so i can beat the one in the seasonal race
 
Don't know what the deal is with Kaz and Mustangs. He got the handling all wrong on the '07 Premium and the Shelby GT350. Seems he likes the '71 Mach1 much better though. But anyways, I tried for days to beat this event with the Shelby and got 3 out of 5 events done with it before I finally, being a Ford guy, switched to the "71 Mach1 and flat out toasted the last at 20PP less than I had on the Shelby. You'd think a car that weighs so much less with a tuned suspension and such would handle way better than the much heavier Mach1 but it's not the case. The Shelby will rotate on you in a hurry and there's almost no chance it seems to catch it without over correcting and then it whips the other direction. There's also no balance to it. The transition from understeer to oversteer is very unpredictable. I tried so many LSD and suspension settings, I think I almost melted my brain before I switched to the Mach1.
 
One last update on this post. i found what i was doing wrong. i had the hard tires on instead of the medium. once i put the right tires on, i was winning by quite a bit. i have now finished 3 of the races in first with this tune. thank you again
