to start off my first kill story, I honestly thought I was gonna lose. I mean a 4cyl, vs. V-8.

Well this is me n my bestfriend racing, so this is no bull**** story about the GT ****ing up, because he didnt. we raced clean, straight, 4 times, and all 4 times, i took him from the start to end.

I probably pulled about 1 car length in each gear.

finished it off hitting 70mph about 4 car lengths.

95 GT that thing probebly has 200 hp and how many miles on the GT? probebly over 100K so even less than 200HP no wander you took it. dont get to happy race a new GT.

damn..thats an old car, maybe its wearing away a bit and thats why you prolly won

anyways..good kill!

it has 78,000mi. 215hp/tq stock arent they?

the 4.6L is 215 I dont remember when it was changeg from 5.0 to 4.6 but as far as i can remember the 5.0 is crap and it dosent make 215 hp. and you have to remember its a ford after 50 k miles its junk. MY friend had one craped out at 50 k. I drove the new ones they are fast 260 hp

i raced a 2002 mustang GT in my CLK320 and i gotta tell ya, i felt proud of my V6 baby! The mustang started pulling away at 150 kph and just about getting to 210 kph... to my total surprise, i was beginning to ease up to him with about 3 car lengths between us! He slowed down.

So gentlemen.. please someone explain to me if this is possible or was his car ****?

FYI -

**manual transmissions and coupes - autos and convertables are slower

94-95 Mustang GT 5.0L 215hp 285ft/lb ~6.7s 0-60
96-97 Mustang GT 4.6L 215hp 285ft/lb ~6.7s 0-60
98 Mustang GT 4.6 225hp 285ft/lb ~6.5s 0-60
99+ Mustang GT 4.6 260hp 302ft/lb ~5.9s 0-60

96-98 Mustang Cobra 4.6L (DOHC) 305hp 300ft/lb ~5.7s 0-60
99-01 Mustang Cobra 4.6L (DOHC) 320hp 316ft/lb ~5.5s 0-60
03-04 Mustang Cobra 4.6L (DOHC) SC 390hp 390ft/lb ~4.7s 0-60

** 03-04 Cobras are under-rated tho, dyno results prove the 03-04 cobras make ~405-425 hp stock -- 0-60 times obviously still high 4 second range.

Don't you dear say that the mustang runs 5.9 the new one. I have video of me beating a stock mustang of a line and off the roll. 2004 gt mustang with 11,000 miles vs my s500 with 112,000 at that time. now at 115,000

Just reporting the #s I've seen. The 99+GTs are fast. They make 230rear wheel hp and 270+ rear wheel torque, which yields slightly higher #s assuming a 16% drivetrain loss. I just recently sold my 97 Mustang Cobra, but I had the chance to race a couple of them and barely beat them. They can definitely run 5.9s 0-60, maybe even faster. Maybe the stock one you raced was an automatic? Or he/she didn't know how to drive

I think we need to see that video......
