Any near stock Mustang with an auto is easy prey. The auto is a full second slower than a 5 speed in the quarter. I don't even count them.

No disrespect, but some of you LS1 guys kill me when you say LS1 M6 vs. Mach 1 M5 is a drivers race. It's only a drivers race if the LS1 guy can't drive! It's a close one, but not quite a drivers race. My brothers '02 35th wen't 13.20's in the 107 range repeatedly when it was bare stock, and trust me when I say that several Mach's tried, but failed. Stock LS1 M6's make a considerable amount of more power than a Mach, and if you know how to use it, a Mach is no problem - period, point, blank!
I usually don't do the video racing thing, but I thought hey it's friday, so what the heck. Here's a quick example of the two cars, except, this LS1 is an AUTO! Both cars basically stock with very minor mods. Enjoy (before they pull it )

the difference is roughly 30rwhp but with 50-100lbs less. I think close enough to be a drivers race, but the gearing does hurt it too, moreso than the fbody.

yes i have, it was an 04 bone stock and i beat him, i was not stock tho. it is a drivers race, and i agree the edge goes to the ls1, they are rated a lil less hp than the ls1 and have slightly lower gearing (3.55) i think, could be wrong. i agree with you tho that the ls1 most likely will win, but it is close enough to call it a drivers race

best money spent, would be a thermostat, a diablo sport tuner, grannatelli wires a lid and catback, and dr's, id say you got a 12 sec car right there,

it may be a drivers race for you man but my car kills mach 1's easy
i would say something is wrong with your car,he was heavily modded,or maybe your car just didnt perform to its abilities-bad tires/driver/launch something
no offense man but those things are pretty weak stock ,m5 or auto

Seen too many LS1 M6's take Mach 1's to believe any of that. If the LS1 driver is not skilled enuff to take 'em off the line then run 'em on a roll - that's a certain victory.

There's a few Mach 1's that usually show up at the local dragstrip. They're only runnin between 8.9-9.3 in the eighth. Why's everyone acting like there untouchable??

did you not read my post??? i was not stock and he was, of course i won
my car runs perfect, only losses i have on the street was a cl65 amg and a procharged 2001 cobra.
i can drive the shit outta it too, def. not the best but i can hold my own.
all i'm saying is that its a damn good race for a stock ls1 to a stock m5 mach.
i am not gonna argue with you, you're also the one that said a stock terminator is a good race for a stock ls1.

my 99, went 13.1 with a slp lid catback and 4.10's, never broke into the 12's. my guess is because it had 155k miles original motor and trans, and that time was on street tires,

none of these guys think a stock cobra can be beaten with a stock ls1 but ive done it and know it can be done
but thats ok they can get beat by mach 1's and will keep beating the supercharged cars for them

its not always bad driving the cobra is not that much faster stock for stock,you can think what you want but it isnt and it can be beaten to about a 100mph anyway where the cobra starts pulling harder
just face it these cars were supercharged and barely beat a stock ls1
either way it is not the subject
in no way is a mach 1 and an ls1 a drivers race
