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. :eyes:

no bull.....just tellin it like it is.
i actually looked iton buying the ws6 but our used car dept put to much into it to make it a good deal.
oh btw the kid with the 05 also beat a 5.7gto from a 60roll to about 110 before they stopped.

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.

i have driven the new 05,s and they run very good,almost as good as my mach ran when i owned it.would you believe that my mach bone stock with just a old pair of drag radials would turn high 12,s.....

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 fuckers 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.

07-29-2005, 12:23 PM
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 :bs: . 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.

Something was very wrong with that WS6 I would have to say. I have driven an 05 GT and (I KNOW THIS IS STOCK WITH NO TUNE OK) at 75-80mph they die like they dropped two cylinders. I also raced an auto ( NO WAY TO MISS SHIFT) in my 94 LT1 with an intake and Blowmaster and pulled hard on him up top on the highway...hard. I like the 05's and I'm not a hater. I did however see an 05 GT that had some kind of bugnet on the front end...yes a bugnet. It was FUGLY :barf:

:bs: Based on my experience last weekend (7-24-05). I own a 2001 Trans Am with just a blowmaster catback and my grandfather owns an '05 auto Mustang GT. He let me take out the GT by myself. Nice power but not LS1 power, especially low end torque and high end hp. Not to mention, when I floored the throttle, the throttle response was not there.

man you guys are harsh, it really did happen, the TA may not have been 100% (it just came into the used car dealer, what are u expecting lol) Neither of these guys have anything to gain by lying. A few newer GTs with just tunes and intakes have gone low 13s, i don't see whats so unbelievable, obviously by the sputter claimed on the launch on the TA it is having some tune issues. The GT is strong and once the weather cools down im sure he will follow me out to HRP when im running the GN so he can get some times on it. I know the LS1 was touched by the hand of God but come on guys, these aren't 04 Gts and the new 5 speed auto in the GTs is surpisingly good after the tune. Anyways you guys can choose to ignore it but not all Ls1s run low 13s after 40,000 miles of unknown care, and not all GTs are stuck in the high 13s. :punch:

07-29-2005, 11:55 PM
I think the 05's that are running low 13's with a tune and mild bolt on's are the 5 spd's. The automatics suck, no offense. It isn't a great feat to beat an LS1 that sputters and is probably running on 7 cylinders. You could probably beat a viper thats running on 5 spark plugs also. That broken down LS1 would probably also fall prey to a V6 camaro as it sits. Given equal drivers the hp to weight ratio of an LS1 to an auto 05 mustang tells no lies. It should be a unanimous victory for the LS1. :engarde:

If this story is true then it's all on the drivers. The mustang owner actually owns the car and the ws6 driver just jumped behind the wheel. I have a friend with a 99 GT. I have beat him over 10 times even when he sprays his 100 shot. We use my car to pace how much faster his car has become after mods. However, one time I jumped on the gas too hard at the track and spun 1st and all of 2nd. I thought I caught him still but he the timeslip said he beat me by .001 sec. So even he has won one. It's all about the driver and how he knows his car.

did I come on here boasting that I beat an all mighty LS1 or that my car makes more power than the LS1? No, Roger posted this and you guys were calling him out and now here I am telling you what happened.

I call BS on this as well. Right after my 6-speed swap still getting used to shifting gears and 2.73's in the ass end I got tore the fuck up off the line but after i got it high rpm's in 1st i started gaining ground. I didn't beat him but i hung with his ass on a A4 tune in a M6 car with 2.73's in the ass. And i didn't have anything on the car at the time except CAI, Lid, and TB. Now with those same mods with 3.73's and a M6 tune I killed an 05 gt by 3 car's. Those overweight boulder holders can't run for shit after about 100 even with a tune. My buddy has an 05 with a tune and exhaust work and he can't keep up with me after about 80 mph in his A5. Hail LS1 and F-body's they are the dominatrix of the street. :hail:

i beat a surpercharged 05 gt- vortech @ 7psi.
me= around high 12's on street tires probably mid on nitto's
we were both on street tires. i had him by a few cars, he obviously did not launch as good as i did, but he WAS NOT pulling. my freind with a 99 trans-am was racing with us- he got me by a car length (obviously ahead of the mustang also) and all he has is bolt-ons also, but the t/a was on nitto's.
so- stock gt vs. stock ws6- hard to believe the gt won at all, but if it did it wasn't by much.

07-30-2005, 05:13 PM
well the reason the a5 gt falls on its face after third gear is because 4th and 5th gears are just overdrive gears. ford designed it to have nasty 1,2,3 gears for acceleration and 4 and 5 gears for fuel mileage. GM was the same with the 4l60e, has an insane first gear 3.06, good second gear 1.62, third is a little shy of an OD gear with a 1.00 ratio, and 4th is a .7 for overdrive. im not 100 percent sure about mustang gears, but am positive that 4 and 5th gears are overdrive gears. and a 40 hit in a a4 ls1 is suicide without a stall and a tune, surprised no one has mentioned that yet. he even said the t/a wasnt running right, and we all know anything can happen on the street. im kinda interested in how the a5 gt runs and would like to see some dyno numbers and track times :) ive raced a few 05 gt m5's and have won, but interested in what bolt on ones run. because like the ls1 they do take well to bolt on's. remember guys know thy foe :devil:

Not even possible, could never happen, :judge: lol jk, everybody here seems to forget that not all LS1s are created equal and a mid to low 13s sec car will beat an LS1 that is not in 100% proper order(and even some in good working order), so i would say a bad tune and probably 87 octane put in by the dealer and its probably a high 13 sec car at best now. I'm a diehard Ls1 fan and love driving my sisters car on the street or on the track but some of ya'll seem a little nieve in your beliefs.

wow, I've been utterly obbsessed with F-bod cars since i was a tiny kid, and i have respect for the new mustangs. factory set shifting never is the best on a car, and after a tune can be quite different. As for the ws6 im sure it had problems if it did indeed sputter off the line, and due to that may have been at a loss of HP, and possibly the driver wasnt used to the car, but there were infact too many variables in control of each car to have any of us who did not witness the race call into question the actual winner of the races. i think with a ws6 with a unfaniliar driver, possibly some engine problems, and racing against a 05 gt with a nice tune, there is plenty of room for a ls1 to loose the fight. Now a newly dropped in ls1 with a tune, against a tuned 05 gt, that would be a good fight, but even with two brand spanking new cars there is still alot of possibility. :drive:

Thats my point, a stock 05 auto mustang is not a fast car. I'm not saying it can't respond to mods and be run quick. You can only run so fast with a stock car, stock hp, stock weight, etc. What did you expect to happen when your friend posted about a considerably slower car raping a faster car by 6 car lengths? Something is obviously wrong with this picture. :secret2: A stock 05 auto Gt is not competition for a stock WS6. Equal mods and their is still no competition. What you are comparing really are drivers and not cars, and you can't make a comparison with a car that isn't running right. What was the point anyway in starting a thread on an LS1 forum about smoking a WS6 by 6 car lengths? You beat a faster car that had a mechanical problem, with a slower car.......neat.

What was the point anyway in starting a thread on an LS1 forum about smoking a WS6 by 6 car lengths? You beat a faster car that had a mechanical problem, with a slower car.......neat.

Well let's just say this. My friend in his 05 gt against my intake and exhaust Z looses by about 1 or 2 car lengths from a 40mph roll to 90. He is getting a tune soon along with his magnaflows. So once we run again I'll let you guys know.
BTW, he's not gonna beat me ;););)

once again not trying to bash, but man i raced one 05 GT....and it was a raping. that was before the full exhaust. if it happened congrats...i guess. but in all honesty i would not count on it ever happening again if you race another one. now if it was about a year older and had svt tags...then i would be singing a different tune. :secret:

The 2005 Auto GT's are mid-high 13's cars and the 5-speeds are mid 13's (lowest BONE STOCK one ran 13.39 as I recall) BUT...remove the carbon trap,re-tune it, and put on CAI and an auto (which dynoes stock at 260ish) will hit around 280rwhp. 1-4th are racing gears (4th being 1:1), there is no double OD in the new A5, the ratio's are just MUCH closer. The auto with these mods should hit 13.2-13.5 in the 1/4 in perfect circumstances. Now...Most WS6 LS1's that i have seen/heard of run around 13.1-13.3 BONE STOCK. Therefore I will have to say that if it was CAR vs. CAR in perfectly good running order, the WS6 would overtake the GT at around 50-60mph and pull on him from there out.
It is something to note that if the valvetrain were replaced and the computer re-tuned the 3v 4.6's will pull to 6800 or so before falling on their face. Also, as to falling on the face...In 1:1 gear the spark advance does NOT ADVANCE past 5200rpm. with a stock tune (this leads to the common complaint of "it fell on its face and the LS1 pulled busses :( ) Sorry this was so long, just felt like throwing in my 2 cents as well.

After all the talk about the 05's on this thread, I had a burgendy one try and race me on the way home tonight. It was almost spooky to have one try and race me shortly after posting about them earlier today. It sounded good(don't they all) and I could tell he had exhaust, but as for other mods I have no idea. He kept riding my tail for several blocks and then pulled up beside me. He down shifted and looked over at me when I was at the bottom part of 3rd. I was going a little too fast to down shift so I stayed in 3rd. We hit it and I pulled ~2 cars on him until I was ready to shift into 4th. As I was shifting into 4th I looked in the rearview mirror and saw his blinker on. He turned and went back the other way. I know I'm not exactly stock so I won't brag about it, I just thought it was funny. I wish I was still stock with my bent pushrod and all, so I could have something more to add to this thread.
ps. I realize I did have a big advantage, so you guys won't find me bragging about pulling 2 car lengths in 3rd on an 05' on the corral or stangnet lol.

Yeah i'm still wondring why trueblue wants us to believe that a 05 gt a6 can beat a m6 t/a ws6. And if anyone has their doubts on me im also looking into buying a 30th anniversary t/a so i do prefer ls1 over 4.6 crap. I've raced a lot of F-bodys and im sick of losing. This mustang is great to cruise in to get people to stare out thier ass at your car but id prefer power over looks.

I must say, that is a great looking mustang you have lordsauran. I'm an x mustang guy myself. I had a 4.6l with heads and cams and was still getting embarrassed by the f-bodies. I didn't want to lower my compression and go with a supercharger, so I crossed over to the other side. :secret2: The only thing I miss is the sound. The sound of the LS1 has slowly grown on me over time, but still doesn't quit=4.6l mustang. I guess what it comes down to is I would rather have the performance of an LS1 rather than the sound and performance of a 4.6l.

Personally, I think it's half dozen one or the other. I used to have an F-body (95 TA A4) and now I have a Fox GT. I will say that from 94-04 the mustang was nothing to talk about...(other than cobra's Mach's) But I do belive it is possible for the 05 GT to pull on a less than perfectly tuned WS6 (considering the GT was new and had a tune and the WS6 had who-knows-what up with it.)

the car crossed the scales with me in at at right over 3300 and the DA was below zero.

I don't want to burst your bubble but the new A5 trannys seem like a great tranny so far, i don't know about durability wise, but gearing wise and keeping the car in its power band it seems to be as good as the 4l60e in my sisters Z. With the tune the shift firmness was increased and it shifts very firm and at the right times. Like I said hopefully i can get a couple days with my sisters 00 auto Z28 and we will video tape some runs between his 05 GT and the Z. It was involved in a wreck a couple weeks ago. It ran 13.16 at almost 105 so it should be a good run for sure. (it will have a 3" catback though)

You guys trying to flirt or what. Big Bronco and Roger, you guys do sound like a sweet couple...but all aside. The 05 didnt beat the WS6. I bet any WS6 owner here would bet thier cars on that. I ran one myself but ofcourse it wasnt even fair. Boys, imagine if all LS1's were equiped with forged internals. Youd have 5 times the 8 second times. I also own an 01 GT morons. Id fuc&ing slit my wrist if I had to get that thing in the 12's! Got it to mod it. 10's with 4K investment on my SS......I gave up. Swallow guys. :)

My friend has a 2V NA GT that goes 11.50's my Cobra makes 565rwhp so get over it the LS1 is not the end all be all of motors it is a very strong motor but so are mod motors it all comes down to $$$$$ speed costs. If you want a car that is fast from the start buy a Cobra, spend a grand and make 450rwhp and never pull off the valve covers. And by the way I kill LS1 cars all the time even modded ones so they can and do get beat. Also if LS1's are the greatest why don't the make them anymore?

I don't think any rational person here thinks the LS1 really is superior to anything. But it "broke out" in a big way, and for a "larger" cube motor, it likes to pull hard up top as compared to the LT1. The flat torque curve is nice too. It may bog a tad off the line, but that is the ONLY gripe LS1 owners have had. And a set of gears changes that.
Regarding why the FBods are dead....it had nothing to do with how "great" the LS1 is/was. It's all about mass volume and sales, which Ford did hit the mark on. I'm just glad I kept mine and didn't sell out.
I for one am glad I have a car that is getting rarer on the road. Shit, everyone's got a Mustang. And I bought my Z28 for $23,700....not bad to get a mid-to-low 13 sec car off the showroon floor eh?

okay, I just watched an 05 Mustang on Car and driver get whacked all-day-long by an 05 GTO. I have seen the 05 Mustang in action. Namely against my 2000 SS Camaro. They guy who was driving the 05 Mustang GT at the time pulled up next to me wanting to race. From the go, I was beating him like a stepchild in a woodshed. either the WS6 had mechanichal problems, or the WS6 lost due to "operator error". In either case, it's already known that the new Mustangs can't take an LS1,2 or 6 for that matter. Just my 2 cents. Either way, I made that guy feel real bad about for the amount of money he spent on that brand new Mustang GT. I felt bad for him.............NOT :lol: no bull.....just tellin it like it is.
i actually looked iton buying the ws6 but our used car dept put to much into it to make it a good deal.
oh btw the kid with the 05 also beat a 5.7gto from a 60roll to about 110 before they stopped.
also i dont have any reason to tell ya lies......i really dont care.i have had my share of fast cars and unbelievers.

Actually it is 565 but that is not the point stop thinking so close minded LS1 cars can be beat so can Cobras, Hemi's and every other combo in the world so just because you say you say this and read that does'nt mean that that particular 05 did not beat that particular WS6. And as far my power for 50 bucks and a retune I can make 600+rwhp that is the joys of pulley changes. Also I am not big headed I just get tired of people like you trying to call out people how are just trying to post a story you are the one who said "you think I am am scared to race you". I never said you were but you sure brought it up so maybe you are. I like how you know exactly how many Cobras you have put down I can't tell you how cars I have beat but you can count yours on your hands.

As for pre-'05's, we have a guy locally that had an '03 GT 5sp with cai, tb, chip, x-pipe, cat-back, 3.73's, and 17" DR's run a "best" of 13.55 @ 103 w/ 1.76 60. He was leaving off the rev limiter every time because it would bog if he left any other way. This was at sealevel in the fall with like ZERO humidity and temps around 65ish. And yes the guy could drive. He banged that tranny so hard that he eventually ended up breaking it.

The A/C excuse makes sense to me. When mine is on it FEELS like I'm down 25+hp. I would never race anyone with the a/c on, at least on purpose. You don't launch at wot, and between shifts you let off the throttle (at least I do). The time you spend at any other point other than wot, the a/c will be sucking down the hp.

believe what you want about the 01 GT, it ran what it ran and for the mods it ran very strong. the car you talk about is slow, with 103 traps and a 1.76 it should be 12.9-13.0, some where he is losing time. Just because one car can't that automatically means the others can't as well? BTW there was always a white GT at the track that is a local friend of ours, he rarely broke mid 13s as well and had every bolt-on you could, GTs don't care for TBs plenums, CAI or many other small bolt ons unless its a lot more upgraded. One other thing, these are all at Houston Raceway Park, the track prep is always decent, its sea level and lotsa people get best times there. About the 05s being Dogs... sure after 80 or so an LS1 will start to pull pretty good on a stock or slightly modded 05 GT, but low 13s with just a tune is nothing "doggish" at all. I guess all those 13.6-8s at 106 i see here in stock or even slightly modded sigs must make them dogs as well :jest:

LS1 PCM turns the A/C off at full throttle, period.
Go out to your car, run around with the A/C on for 10 minutes .... then turn it to normal cold fan, w/o A/C ..... it will still be cold for a minute or two, even though the A/C is OFF .... exactly what happens when you go WOT for 10 seconds.
Regardless of what you feel happens in your 630 whatever rwhp beast ... your A/C is not on during a WOT run. If you really pay attention, after the race when you let off the gas, you can hear/feel the A/C kick back in.

as far as the '03 bolt-on GT goes, there is definately something wrong there, JD said, with a 1.76 60' and 103 traps, the car should run MUCH better than that. Just because he can "bang" gears and break transmissions makes him a good driver? Shit, he doesn't know his shift points very well, there is something going on mid-range there. You can call BS on me all day long, I have nothing to prove to any of you guys, you mean nothing to me, seriously, if you don;t think low 13's and high 12's are capable out of a mildly modded 2V, you are a retard, as I stated before WEIGHT matters.

an auto GT is going to be hard to get into the 12's without forced induction or a stoker motor. I had all the bolt on stuff on my old 01 and could get low 13's with no weight reductions GT motors leave alot to be desired, 4V mod motors are the way to go.

Thanks, I will. And if you want to drive that ragged piece up here and show those 12.9's with just an exhaust and a tire then I'll happy to watch.
the car you talk about is slow, with 103 traps and a 1.76 it should be 12.9-13.0, some where he is losing time.
I don't know where you get your MPH = ET from. 103 is right on par for mid-13's unless you're running a 5.13+. Yea, I know he's losing time, I think that the contributing factor there was the sorry ass 281 Ford decided to put in there.
Just because one car can't that automatically means the others can't as well?
Tell me why? Our track here is sealevel with almost always outstanding prep and some of the best weather conditions you could ask for in the early spring/ late fall. Not ALL of the 2v Mustang guys the Tri-city Richmond area suck at driving, so you're telling me it's something else.... I know, you just have a "freak" Mustang. Must be the only one in the country. Post up some links to slips/video's/etc. where others are running 12's with a stock 2v GT.
About the 05s being Dogs... sure after 80 or so an LS1 will start to pull pretty good on a stock or slightly modded 05 GT,
Actually it was before we even reached 60 the other week when I raped an '05 GT from a dig. About 2-3 cars. But you're right about after 80, yes...it would have only gotten worse for him.
but low 13s with just a tune is nothing "doggish" at all. I guess all those 13.6-8s at 106 i see here in stock or even slightly modded sigs must make them dogs as well :jest:
They're "dogs" IMO for what's there. A "claimed" 300HP in a "newly designed" 3v motor, getting whooped by a 5yr old car (still using "ancient" pushrods) that's "claimed" 305HP as well. You can sit here and type bllshit 'til the cows come home but the fact is I've yet to hear of a bone stock 3v in the 12's. And we ALL know they're IS such a thing with a few LS1's, obviously not the norm. What was that about "dogs" again.....

should we listen to yuo then Jon????looking at your times your not a great driver yourself.....
i have seen a few bone stock 99 to 04 gts run high 13,s
just because you havent seen it doesnt mean it hasnt happened.i have never seen a bone stock ls1 car run faster than a 13.36 but does that mean that they dont??

wow, first off its not my car nor did i claim it to be, but i did see it happen. 103 traps in a GT is fairly strong especially with gears, so mid 13s is slow. Those traps are right on for a mid 13 sec LS1 car but not a geared 2V GT. (my sisters bone stock 00 auto Z28 ran a 13.16 at 104.8 on a 1.96 60 ft, imagine with a 1.76) Maybe you still live in LS1 land where LS1s put down 320 rwhp and are still low 13s and maybe a freak high 12 at best, with 106-108 traps. The fact is LS1 based cars in close to stock form usually don't ET well for their mph. 106-108 in most cars i.e. (my buick Gn, 5.0 mustangs, stalled LT1s, 2V GTs etc) with a decent 60 ft which seems so hard to find by looking at a few sigs around here... :bang: 106-108 should be a mid 12, or even a tad lower.
Nobody claimed a bone stock 3V was in the 12s... they aren't and i don't remember saying they are. I can't believe im in here sticking up for mustangs lol, im one of the biggest GM fans (but im a realist) around and would definitely give True Blue (ya know the owner of the car in ?) a hard time if i knew he was lying or if he got beat. Here are some facts that nobody is denying, the LS1 is an awesome motor, putting out much more power than 300 from the factory, it responds to mods well, nobody is denying it and 95% of good running LS1s will have no problem with slightly modded 05 GTs, but they are close enough in performance that variables can effect the outcome of the race.

Like I said, post up some proof. I've not only never seen, but also never heard (in rags/on the net/from friends/etc.) of any stock GT in the 12's. I can't believe I'm even arguing this, lol.
As for my times, no I'm not Evan Smith or anything, but I can handle my own. That ET in sig was not only the first time at the track (also a track that I had never raced at before) with the car, but the first time driving a 6sp LS1 ;)

Dude, you're not going to change my mind.
1. 2v GT's with an exhaust and a tire do not run 12's.
2. I never said that you said 3v GT's run 12's stock. I was simply stating "why" IMO, '05 GT's are dogs, which is what I was asked. The answer, AGAIN, is that they don't compete with "age old" technology in cars that can be up to 7yrs older with same "acclaimed" HP, and the 3v is supposed to be "new" technology.
3. I'm not in "LS1 Land" on the MPH + ET thing either. I think YOU are either in "1969 427 4sp 4.56 With Less Than A 26" Tall Tire Land", or "I've Got An AWD Turbo And run 13.0's @ 102 Land".

Not on a regular basis no, but weighing in at 3300, exhaust and a really great track prep to go along with negative density altitudes= it happened, deal with it.

no offense to Fbod owners here but as stated hundreds of times, why would they care to compete with a car and motor thats not even made any more? I'm as sad as anybody that the Fbods are gone and the mustang didn't have much to do with its demise but it doesn't need any more hp to compete or outsell, so why bring the risk of more warrenty claims. The 03-04 cobra did just fine and offered anybody willing to pay to play the chance at a very strong car.

No thats LS1/04 cobra ET to mph relationships, they trap high with ok ETs. A turbobuick running 108 runs 12.2-12.3 usually while most LS1s run 12.8-9 unless its a heavily stalled auto. 60 fts win races, i dont' know what you don't understand about what i wrote. The majority of cars at the track will have a much better ET for a given mph than the typical Fbody. I have a friend with a mildly modded Gn that ran 12.75 at 101 haha. I once ran an 11.68 at 112.8 on 17 psi (low boost) and pump gas. I didn't believe his mustang would run that fast either but ive been at the track there everytime he has run it and the numbers and mods were legit. If you don't believe me thats fine. I've got nothing to gain :judge:
