Default Some race vid's mustang's, TA's, GTP, SRT-4, 240sx

I can't remember if i posted these up here or not enjoy they may not be the best quality but oh well.

99 stock auto ta vs. 02 modded stang
http://www.ezarchive.com/89tang/Albu...tavs.stang.mpg

89 modded stang vs. 02 modded stang - point was to shut some ppl. up about how a 4.6 modded exactly the same as a 5.0 the 4.6 still wouldn't beable to hang
http://www.ezarchive.com/89tang/Albu...680/50vs50.mpg

00 TA stock 6spd vs. 02 modded stang - really i thought it was going to be closer this TA runs damn good.
http://www.ezarchive.com/89tang/Albu...30/02vs.00.mpg

Just messing around with some ppl. the 240sx has an srdet20 motor swap with a turbo, the srt-4 is running 20-25lb's of boost.

Ok, how did the stock 6spd T/A destroy the stang in the 3rd vid, and the 99 auto T/A got crushed by the same stang in the first vid?

I'm guessing the T/A in the first vid is yours.

Your guess is as good as mine, and yeah the 99 is mine. The best i can figure is on my run we went at around 40-45mph the auto downshifted to 2nd that was it and that's how the stang pulled so hard. My TA runs 13.6's in the 1/4, now the 00 TA the kid just bought it like a week before that run on the vid. it's "suppose" to be stock and it was from what i could see. The 02 stang ran a buddy that has a stage 2 srt-4 it runs 12.87@110 between the stang and that neon it was dead even. So we're as confused as you are about that TA.

Needless to say i declined a race TA vs TA cause it's obvious the 00 is fast as hell. From the looks of it the 00 woulda been a good race for my stang on spray that doesn't make alot of sense either.

40-45ish is such a weak point in the A4 from what I've seen in my A4, very sluggish at that speed...the real power for the A4 lays in the 30-35ish range and 65-70ish range

Yeah i know that's a weak spot for the A4 but it also didn't matter at no point in the run did i ever stop or even out his pull he just kept pulling.

35-50= worse thing in the world for an A4. My 2.73 LT1 liked 20-30 and 60-70 roll.

Awesome Videos. All nice cars!

It's hard to say what should or would happen when racing from a roll. Especially when comparing an M6 and an A4. My friend has a 383 LT1 a4 355 rwhp and I have a my bolt-on Z28 M6 344 rwhp. My best ever run was a 12.55 @ 111.5 but I usually trap 110. My buddy only went once with his current setup and he runs 12.4's @ 110. From a stop on the street he gets me every time, but when we go from a roll I always pull him. We'll have to try racing a few times from different speeds and see if it makes a difference.

You guys should race the auto TA against the same stang from a stop. Might be a different result.

Thanks

Ya know i was very tempted to do that BUT my cousin just redone that mustang he has thousands of dollars in it (nitrous mishap blew the stock 4.6 to pieces oppsss ) i just didn't have the heart to do it, i know from a stop it'd be closer and if for some reason my TA beat him i'd feel real bad lol. I mean i already took his pride away with my mustang i felt kinda bad after the *** whooping i layed upon him, i know i'd be pissed if the roles were reversed. You just spent around 7k to build a stroker 4.6, 6spd everything on it you always wanted, and you get beatup by a 16 y/o primer'd mustang.

BTW the 02 mustang put down 304rwhp and 314lbtq so it's not like it's a slouch either.

man im just crushed by those stroker 4.6 numbers. That must really suck for him though. That car runs damn strong. Thats what my friend ran in his 00 GT 5speed with a 100 shot. I was impressed.

You should have showed him whos boss from the dig. And why was he pulling you? You should probably be around the same hp range with that exhuast and lid, then again youve got an auto and a bad weak spot.

No, the tranny should be fine, i mean worst thing for acceleration, sorry if i was not clear, my fault. just i really never nailed it at 30 b/c i wanted a little more room in my 1st gear to wind it out. I think it would out at about 45, so i suppose 30 would be cool, just hard as hell to get it to DS at 30+ for me.

Yeah, it's hard to race from a roll with an auto car. You have to catch it at the right mph or it doesn't downshift right. I'm don't really know much about 4.6's (especially SOHC ones). Are those number good for the mods? It seems like those motors never do well until you throw a power adder at them.

Well you have to remember the 02 from the factory had about 220rwhp so that's gaining quite abit, just like the 306 it has to gain 100rwhp to keep up with a stock LS1 . That and he wasn't thinking, i mean he wasted money on that 6spd and i've read it eats more hp then his 5spd did. He shoulda bought bigger cams more gear and just left a 5spd in it i bet he'd be around what the engine shop said that motor should produce around 330rwhp.

I think my cousin was pretty disappointed in the numbers though too still good numbers but im and i both were expecting alot more from it.
