Me vs. Co-workers Finally convinced two of my co-workers to race me in the Camaro last night. One has a black '99 GT five speed, the other an '04 Crimson Red 40th Anniversary Edition GT with an automatic. Mods and races are as follows:
1998 Z28 (A4): Free Ram Air mod with a K&N filter.
1999 GT (M5): Full bolt-ons (minus LT's), 3.73's, lowering springs, wheels/tires, etc. 278RWHP/290RWTQ. Also has a passenger.
2004 GT (A4): BBK cold air intake, BBK off-road X pipe, Flowmaster American Thunder cat-back, and 4.10 gears.
'98 Z28 vs '99 GT
Race 1: 20-120; Mustang jumps half a car on the hit and is two or so cars back by the end.
Race 2: 45-130; Mustang jumps half a car again on the hit, falls back by two and a half cars or so by race's end.
Race 3: 0-100; Mustang blows his tires off the line and is a good seven or eight cars back by 100 (245's ain't helping this guy).
'98 Z28 vs '04 GT
Race 1: 20-100; I jump by a car on the hit and leave him like he's standing still. I have no idea how much I won by.
Race 2: 40-120; I give the GT about a car and the hit and by 120 am only a few feet in front of him.
I'm grateful to work with such a good group of guys and who actually know a thing or two. My boss drives a '10 SS but I don't know how to approach him for a race lol. I'll probably lose regardless.

Nice kills on the 2V's, they didn't have a chance from the start.

But man do I still love me a Mustang lol. I think they sound and look so much better, especially the 4V's. Don't get me wrong, Camaro's and Trans Am's (especially SS's and WS6's) can sound and look good too, but it's so commonplace for a Mustang IMO.
It's hard to find anything around here though, just a bunch of GT's. Then there's the H/C/I, fully built and sprayed 2V's every now and then, but Jesus I have a stock LS1 lol.

I heard that! The quickest one around here is a full bolt-on with slicks and skinnies, 4.10 geared 5spd with a pretty good driver running 8.1's or so.
But man do I still love me a Mustang lol. I think they sound and look so much better, especially the 4V's. Don't get me wrong, Camaro's and Trans Am's (especially SS's and WS6's) can sound and look good too, but it's so commonplace for a Mustang IMO.
