Default 05 mustang vs. 02 ws6!!!3 races....

not my cars just reporting what happened.i work at a dealer that carries all makes and we just recieved a 44000 mile ws6 aut with a lid and cat back.so the porter that works here just bougt an auto 05 mustang.the mustang does have a programmer thats all.

anyway first race was just over a 1/4 mile long from a dead stop.the mustang ended up putting about 4 cars on the ws6 and the driver said the ws6 hiccuped off the line....

next race was froma 30mph roll with the mustang racing till just into 4th gear(a little over 100mph) and the mustang put about 3 cars on the ws6....

last race from about a 40mph roll,this was a closer race with the mustang just keeping his rear bumper ahead of the ws6....


anyway there ya go just reporting....

I was outrun by an 05 Mustang 2 days before I sold my T/A. It was a modded lt1 with a hot cam, headers,rr's, etc. I was very surprised to say the least. I did have a bad plug wire though which didn't help. Anyways, the 05's are no joke especially with a good tune that gets rid of the factory limiter/governor.

Was this an '05 Mustang GT? If so, Ford must have stepped the GT up a little because I raced a '99 GT in my Z28 and beat it pretty good. Good kills though I guess, even if you weren't one of the drivers.

If you got outrun by an 05 GT..........try pushing the pedal on the far right all the way down. That will take care of it. You are such a waste of space and lies. You could have at least lied about something we could believe. Enough said. The guy with an LT1 and a bad opti or wire got beat by an 05. So you are saying the LS1 was a car slower than an LT1 with a bad wire/opti??? Is that what you are trying 2 say??? AND..each race the mustang was lossing more and more ground??? M O R O N S.

Roger, you sir, are a lieing sack of stupidity. Unless the ws6 was running on 6 cylinders it would walk an 05 gt just like the previous years. Not only do the 05 mustangs weigh more than we do, we make more power. No way the ws6 looses the race unless it wasnt trying or has mechanical error.

Just out of curiosity....if you are a mustang fan/owner and own/owned all mustangs, WTF are you doing at an LS1 site because under my impression, only GM produced the LS1....................

Whoa guys, chill out a little. The 05 Stang was not stock it had a tune. From what Ive heard the stock tune on the 05's sucks. The fact that he beat him by 4 cars is a little hard to stomach, but whatever. Anything can happen on the street. Good spectator kill.

I don't get the hostility. The guy's relaying a story, not saying HE did it, so unless he's trying to sell 05 Stangs to die-hard F-bod luvers, I don't think he's lying.

Let's look at what he's saying...

A NEW 05 Mustang that hasn't really had time to be ragged out, with some sort of minor programming against...

A USED, more-than-likely ragged out WS6, with lord-knows-what wrong with it, waiting to be hoisted upon some unsuspecting buyer, from one of those scumbag used car sales ******* that'll say, "it used to be owned by a little old lady from pasadena", knowing it was launched over a curb, has frame-damage, a couple of dead plugs and a slipping clutch.

I believe it, given the parameters involved.

BTW, I've gone against an 05 GT recently in my 00 LS1 with nothing but a lid and exhaust and it wasn't pretty. A good 2-3 cars before he gave up, then gave me the ricer fly-by.

I am the owner of the '05 in question. In the first race, my buddy said the WS6 fell on it's face off the line and he gave up, so it really wasn't a race. The second time, I pulled about a length and a half to two lengths on him from a 30 and kept a steady pull until about 110 when we shut down, I imagine he would have started to reel me in thereafter. The third run, he shifted manually from about a 40, he tagged the limiter a bit, but I had already edged about half a car on him and the steady pull came back once again, then we had to quickly shut down.

I also raced an LS1 GTO on the highway from about a 60, and also steadily pulled him by about a car, then the pull decreasaed a bit, but he wasn't able to reel me in.

I am in the process of setting up a race with a friend of mine with an LS1 GTO w/ a Diablo Predator

As for my car, it has an SCT XCalibrator 2 tuned by PSI Motorsports in Webster, TX. I have it set on the 93 tune right now, other than that it is completely as it came from the factory.

Believe it if you'd like, I couldn't care less. If you'd be interested in seeing how your car(s) runs against a 99% stock '05 GT auto, comoe on down to Galveston, I'll lime up.

I don't see why this story bothers people. The 05s appear to respond very well to mods just like the LS1 does, but even more so with a tune. Take into consideration that the WS6 just arrived there, so unknown condition and a driver who is not used to it. That could've played a big part in the race too.

guys i know i don't have many post here so im not very credible but im True Blues roomate and can vouch for him and Roger. Hes not known to tell a fib. He knows I'm an avid GM lover and would call BS on him if i thought it was . His 05 feels very strong, and i was in the car when we inched away from the GTO. I doubt the Ws6 was in tip top shape but i don't doubt that his car is a very good match for most stock LS1s. (the 05s can get out of the hole very strong even on street tires) I'll bring my sisters 00 stock Z28 down when it gets out of the body shop and we'll have a friendly match (Z has run 13.1 at 104.8 stock) It ought to be a good run.
