its ok. u can go jump off a cliff now.lol! J/k. it happends man. not often,but happends.

TCS will only apply the brakes when you lose traction so it will have no ill affect. Your O2s could have a issue unless its just the rears.

Other than that it was a loss. But the good thing is you can mod up your car and go beat him in the future. Hell even if he had so much as a CAI it gives those 3vs a huge boost(20hp) as you have to tune your PCM which takes away the crap tune from the factory.

From a 40-45ish dig they run pretty strong, but how fast were you up to when the race was over?

I'd have I hard time believing you wouldn't have eventually caught him, unless he had some mods.

**N20LT4** · 01-13-2008, 06:28 AM

Did you consider that maybe he was modded? Stock for stock, you should have had the upper hand. Maybe your 02's did play a part. Anyways, you win some, you lose some.

**hoss 2000 z-28** · 01-13-2008, 07:56 AM

S197's are pretty strong cars, don't feel too bad. For him to get you that bad he definitely has some $$$ in it. They respond well to mods too but LS1's respond better! Bad 02's will screw with your AFR so that could be to blame. But, you will like the extra power you'll make after your mods and tune!

I hate hearing about losses to Mustang GTs >:-(

**hutch1999** · 01-14-2008, 08:09 AM

Do you know if the stang had anything at all done to it?

**dpinson** · 01-14-2008, 09:58 AM

He Had To Have Somemoney In It Man, I Bought My Wife An 07 Gt 5 Speed Ive Never Ran It Against My Z But Ill Tell You That I Dont Think It Would Have A Chance I Hate Driving That Thing Its A Slow Pos,but I Have Been Blown Away By An 05 With A Procharger ,duh

From What Ive Noticed Though They Seem To Be Easier To Launch But You Should Have Run Him Down Pretty Quick

Nice Cars Though They Sure Look Sweet Hers Has The Outlaw Package Which Is Just Some Roush Body Parts And It Says Outlaw On The Scoop

**Justin23454** · 01-14-2008, 09:59 AM

well, im an A4 so I dunno how I could suck at driving an A4? ANd I dunno about the mods, I Just seen it on the street.

**dpinson** · 01-14-2008, 10:08 AM

IM NOT TRYING TO DOG MUSTANGS I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL AND LOVED THEM UNTIL I GOT MY Z

I HAD AN 86 5.0 SLOW
95 GT SLOW
07 GT SLOW

MY BUDDY HAS a 98 cobra with full bolt ons and it is pretty quick but i still beat him

my brother has the 04 svt cobra and that is the only mustang i would want for myself but my stock z28 still beat it stock

the 98 and 07 were rated at 300-305 fwhp and the 04 was 390 fwhp and my camaro 300-325 rwhp took them all

did you leave it in D or did you manualy down shift your trans?

**Justin23454** · 01-14-2008, 10:40 AM

D, should I have droped it?

It probly would have help and would have taken out the hesitation of the down shift but before I did that, I would have tried to get him to run from a slower roll than 45.

**Justin23454** · 01-14-2008, 11:31 AM

I used to drop from D to whatever when racing, but Ive seen tons of people on here say dont do it, just let it do it, its self, but ya it would have been better if I did it myself. So should i drop it from now on or?

FWHP? = Front Wheel Horse Power...must be a typo.

I never shift my Auto from a dig but from a roll its usually best to start in a lower gear so you dont have to wait for the downshift. Right after I get in it I shift it back into D so the computer does the shifting and I don't start bouncing off the limiter.

He meant Fly Wheel Horsepower

**Bigdeezs** · 01-14-2008, 12:37 PM

ahh ok numbers just looked strange...I've seen terminator Cobras putting down 400 RWHP with just intake so the numbers looked like they should be wheel numbers.
