[chuck4345]

well last night i got to race against my buddies gt at the track for the first time me o1 ta lid and magnaflow catback him 08 gt coldair intake and flowmaster both cars are automatics after several attemps of not hooking at all and running 15.6s we both finally hooked him 14.3 me 13.9 we deided to go one more time lined up and both hooked perfect result him 14.3 at 95mph again me 13.8 at 101mph the moral of this story is those stang are no joke factory may get them at the track but street my different story i had to catch him every time nice first gear launch on that car but in closing just let me say he has admitted the ls1 is a better motor

Nice kill, I'd like to run a new Stang

[Johns00Z28]

I don't know man, a 14.3 is not very impressive esp. seeing that he has a couple mods to begin with. Good kill nonetheless. What is the elevation where you were racing?

[chuck4345]

i have know idea im in memphis tn

[Johns00Z28]

If the track you raced at has a website they probably list it on there.

[hutch1999]

15.6s? damn but at least you got him

[jrc1122]

Good kill- I would be completely suprised if the outcome was different.

LS1 much stronger motor than fords 4.6 (NA)

337ft.....You could hit a 13flat no problem at that alt, if not you have some unknown issues going on.....14.3 is a very slow time and not very impressive imo.

Under your username it says car audio god, do you have a large system in you hatch?

[chuck4345]

i use to compete in car audio before i bought my ta i was world champ no wall 2006 and still install on the side for fun my car is stock right now but if i do anything ill go all sq not spl

I don't race at the track at all.... but i hate the new GT's and pretty much all of them unless they're heavily modded. They look "OK" but it's been 10 years and they're still slower than an ls1. not to mention that i see at least 12 mustangs per day

That's because they didn't stop building them like GM stopped building F bodies! Compared to F bodies, they look great.

I think a 1998-2002 WS6 looks much better than that thing they call a S197 GT.

[chuck4345]

no mustangs looks as agressive as a ta and to see a ta pull throught the tire smoke of a burn out at the track with just the fog lights on makes me tingle in funny places

[Johns00Z28]

Mustangs are behind the times, no matter how they look. There's V6's now making 300+hp now while the GT still makes only 300 w/ a V8....kinda lame.

Are you serious?? I'm not saying they look like crap, but i just dont like mustangs especially GT's. One reason why they don't look that great is cuz there are so many of them on the streets. Compared to an LS1 F body, they look worse

[chuck4345]

i dont like the new body style personally somethnig about that backseat window bothers me but cover that and it looks ok but that being said i am impressed with how it drives and shifts very fast in an auto all in all a nice car compare ride comfort to fbody ford wins but put them on a track ill take a fbody all day for the trill factor

[third_shift|studios]

they suck on the street. i've put quite a few car lenghts on a few-man, they get PISSED too

[N20LT4]

I have yet to see one in person match the magazine's claim of 13.5 seconds in the quarter for an M5, and 13.6 for an A5. Most I see are in the high 13's to low 14's.

[chris26blaster]

ok now we can tell the truth! I won 4 out of 5 times.
You had wheel spin one time bad and ran a 15.6 other wise 14.0 and 13.9 and losing. you forgot to mention bad .9 .5 reation times. I may have had a slower car by .4ths. but I have better driving skills, wait what kind of skills does it take to drive an auto!
