Went down to Mexico for some fun today.

Recently one of my buddy's picked up a 2011 5.0, he had been wanting to run for a while so we finally made it happen. Both cars had passengers, he and his passenger weighing in lighter the me and mine ~90lbs. His shifting could get better, once he get's a mod or 2 we're running again.

My car also has 3:23's instead of 3:42's because my 10 Bolt took a poop a while back and I needed a quick fix, haven't had to chance to get gears yet.

2011 5.0:

-Muffler Delete
-No Tune


2001 WS6:

-Lid
-LT's/ORY
-Catback
-TB
-3:23's
-M6

Here's the cleanest run we got, 2nd gear roll ~45-50mph

Trick photography hahaha

Thanks, I actually thought he was going to get me before the runs.

Goes to show you that them 5.0's are over rated.



Good kill!

Nice kill , its amazing how hard it is to get a run with a new 5.0 around here .Ran a lightly modded one from a 20 roll and he kept a fender on me . Since than haven't ran one but there is a million old 5.0's around ! Lol . Always wondered how your stock rear held up with the drag radial's . How long did it last b4 it took a dump ?

Tell your buddy he has to practice driving a bit and get some miles on that thing and then re-run you. Not calling BS, but I have seen a 3.31 geared 5.0 in action with a friend of mine that can drive and they are no slouch. Easily enough to take a bolt on F-body, even stock still. My brothers longtube/intake/tune M6 6.0 GTO has beaten an F body like yours with the same mods minus the longtubes by a few cars, but was dead even with a bone stock 5.0.

Good run either way though. Probably gonna stir some **** soup with that vid lol.

Thanks! There is some hype, but when I test drove one I was pretty impressed by it.

Thanks bro. And yup, probably got like 7K miles/30 track passes before it took a **** so I'm not complaining!


Yea I definitely agree that he could improve his shifting, and it would help. In no way do I think those cars are a slouch, especially modded. Like I said before I was expecting to lose. But it's not like he was granny shifting either, I'd say it was about average. And my car runs decent for what I have done to it, it's not a slouch either lol. Once he is modded I'm in trouble.

I've been waiting to get a run in with one forever though so I hope it does stir the pot lol!

Based on Ohio's calculation your should be in the 11' easily.

Good run

Thanks though, he wants a rematch now so we'll wait for that.

No i am not the one that says Fbodys run 12's stocka nd 11's with a tune. The 5.0 can be a mid 12 cxar or a high 13 car depends on driver. Watched 3=4 of them run this weekend. one ran 14's stock, One went 12.6 bone stock in DA of 3400. It was an auto at that with simple 3.15 gears. Oh and watched a 408 stroker Fbody run mid 12's.

Good run,think your boy needs more seat time, if ya had a cam that would be about right, 5.0s can hang with a bolt on car pretty easy from what we have seen, good runs though,pretty strong car

Nice run funny the guy here that runs 12's with his 5.0 is an auto with 3.15 the 6spd guys are fighting traction issues I think the gears are helping them wounder what they do with good sticky tires

cammed/stalled/heads ls1 vs 5.0 with tune only, even the whole way.



5.0 with bolt ons puppy kicking a ls1 with bolt ons and spray



new stock 5.0 running 12.7 stock


same stock mustang gets a tune only and now runs 12.5


and the daddy, 2012 AUTO stock everything except tune, cai, x pipe and axleback, with full tank of gas and no weight reduction runs in the 11's.


and your saying these cars arnt impressive? im glad i sold my camaro for one but hey im not here to start an argument, just saying i think some people under rate the stang because half the people who buy them dont know how to drive them. i agree that the above victory was due to the guy not knowing how to drive his car. oh well, this will probably start some sort of argument anyway so................................................ .......................................

You haven't been here long enough to know Heater says all mustangs are overrated even if it run 6's in the 1/4 at 250mph.

ive been here before, different email and different account way back when i was in highschool. never saw him then though and that was the time when chevy was dominating the mustang so it was a legit claim.

turtle93

Not tring to be rude but what do they mph stock just woundering and has anyone run one stock with DR

NightmareTA

iTrader: (20)

They should mph around 110-112 bone stock depending on the track. Never run one with DR's but havn't needed to. My buddies with an M6 and 3.31's hooked well from 2nd gear rolls.
