99 Z28 v.s. 06 Mustang GT?
Hey guys I was wondering if any of you have raced the new mustangs? I have a 99ls1 that’s got a little work done to it. i.e: yank2800stall, HD rebuilt 4l60e, cold air with lid, LT headers, x pipe, and all your basic free mods. I haven’t taken it to the track yet, so I have no clue as to the times its running.
Anyways I know a guy who has a 06 gt auto with headers & catback, 3.73 gear, and what ever intake mods one does to a new stang. He seems kind of cocky,,,”I had a camaro and thought it was fast until I got this thing,” riiiiiiight I thought.
My question is, are these new mustangs as slow as the older ones, I remember driving a bullet mustang and it barley broke the tires loose. Thanks Guys

I've only had a chance to race a new Mustang from a roll on the highway. From 50-110 the guy couldn't stay closer than 2 cars. They're better than the older stangs, but they still can't beat the highway monster LS1 stock for stock.
I haven't had the opportunity to race one from a dig yet.

That Camaro sure looked stock, and I didn't hear any exhaust sounds, so it probably was stock. And it pretty much beat that Mustang, or at least was even with it. Not too bad.

good races.
Was it me, or did the Z-28 sound like it had an A4? If so, it would definitely explain the outcome of the race from a 20mph roll.

All I have to say is no one can out shift a computer. I have an '01 A4 with headers and borla exhaust and 3.73 gears running 12.7 trapping 111 mph. I saw that the stang had pulleys, intake, 4.10 gears and exhaust. If the z would had any free mods done to it, the stang would have had a chance.

I want to run an LS1 that's close to stock in mine. Not trying to be too cocky, but the guy in the vid did not run through his gears as smooth as it can be done. I believe I could take the yellow stang in the vid. I have raced my parter's Camaro SS with 409HP at the wheels(Denver Altitude). He told me he was suprised that I was with him as long as I was(He had traction problems too). After that, the Ls1 3rd and 4th gear took control of the race I'm going to race him again after my CAI and Tune to see the difference.

How many times have you seen a video where someone says oh, I missed 2nd gear or oh, I missed 3rd gear. I have never heard guys with an a4 say that.

Wow, with those mods this is easy, you'll win easily as long as you can hook. You'll definitely get the hole shot with that converter, and you'll probably pull harder anyways. I don't know what the others in this thread are talking about this being close, cause it's not going to be close at all.

Blue- 1999 Pontiac Trans Am
I raced my uncles 05 A5 Stage 1 Roush Mustang which is basically an GT with a body kit and I think Freer flowing Exhaust and his has 20 inch cobra R rims with my stock 99 A4 T/A we both had passenger of equal weight and raced from a dig twice the first race my car hooked alright he had me by a half car out of the whole but by the top of 2nd gear I had him by a car and was pulling when we both shut down the second time my car was spinning real bad and he got two cars give or take out of the whole and I caught him again but just before the end of the 1/4 but i'm sure if we race the full 1/4 I probably would beat him by 3-5 cars if my car doesn't spin much but spinning maybe a car give or take but they leave pretty good they don't spin much like our cars do and I know the M5's are quicker than the A5's and I've heard of them running low 13's with a decent driver stock but if you leave decently or spin even though if he's a good driver he will probably still have you out of the whole because they are pretty quick 0-60 but I'm almost sure you should beat him once your ls1 hits it sweet spot up top. Good Luck.

Torrid Red- 05 GTO
My girlfriend has an 05 GT with an auto tranny, it is really quick at take-off, but cant hang with me higher speeds. The 4.6 cant match the top end power of the LS2.
