Man you're crazy.

Give OP an effen break. I go afk for 12 hours and his flamesuit is torn to shreds. He did not brag or anything of the sort. He had a great run in with GT500 and had a great experience. Leave it be. Just take it in for what it is. Enjoy future runs with similar performance cars melman!

agreed

Hey thanks guys.

There are a lot of people that mod their gt's to make them look like gt500s.

Perhaps OP is 100% correct, but it means he got a big jump, the other guy's car was broken, or he had a cup of soup before finding the right gear (or didn't even bother changing from the cruising gear).

I'm not trying to hate here guys. It's just a stock C63 does not walk a gt500.
My 1st inclination is to agree with this, but come to find out an '07 GT500 weighs about the same as a C63. Mustang should still have a rear wheel power advantage especially with the 3rd pedal but I think, depending on the year of the car, it would be closer than I would have at 1st thought. Other relevant info would be rear gears and the lose nut behind the wheel.

I have a new theory to explain the result! Mel you bought your car used, not that long ago. Could it have a tune and you don't know it??????
So a tuned c63 against a gt500 (poor driver) = win!!

We need to take a couple runs down 1604 and we can see how you match up to me (tuned). That would be interesting!!

People would be saying----- "Look at that" ( for Propains benefit)

In Alqamzi's case he lives in Denver which is 5000+ ft altitude, where the Blown GT500 has a big advantage over our NA motors (at least according to my understanding and experience). Perhaps this has something to do with why he's beating all of these C63s
