Just a well set up car that can hook what it makes.
EXACTLY!!!!

I totally believe this guys!! The car isnt that heavy, makes good power, and had the right suspension goodies (solid axle with a spool doesnt hurt either) to get a insane short time for the mods!

Yall need to just suck it up and accept that the MUSTANG is back on TOP!! Yall had a very long run, and still are gonna whoop 95% of the cars on the road! Well let me take that back, about 50% considering theres gonna be one of these stangs at every redlight! lol There is no 4th GEN F Body, 5th GEN Camaro, or any CURRENT Gen III HEMI that will be as fast as the new Mustangs MOD for MOD.

Stop callin BS just because the ALMIGHTY ls1 camaro cant run that kind of time with those same mods. It is what it is. Just give props when there due and start moddin more if u arent already, and be prepared for these times to just keep getting lower and lower. I mean cmon this car isnt even broken in yet and its already running 10's.

Also who and the f*ck says you cant run 100shot without being tuned?? We do it over here with our HEMIS and we have some of the shittiest pistons ever made! With a 125 shot I only pulled 2* NOT TUNED just pulled timing, and with a 175 shot I only pull 4*. So I have no doubt in my mind they could slap and 100 shot on there with sum 110 in the tank and run UNTUNED without any failures.

Flame on! but this was all just a matter of opinion.

I like the 2011 Mustang GT, but I can't quite agree with the notion that the 5.0 will respond as well as the LS3 mod for mod.

Time will tell.

I think he said the Camaro will not be as fast as the Mustang mod for mod. What he didn't say was the 5.0 will respond better than the LS3 mod for mod. And I agree completely with him. No way in hell a current 5th gen Camaro will run with the 2011 GT mod for mod. Maybe if GM brings out a better 5th gen Camaro we could see some competition.

Right! Im not talking so much engine's, more like the the cars themselves.
I do agree though time will tell, I mean I dont even think they make an aftermarket CAI for this thing yet and look what its doing. Lets see what this engine does with some heavy aftermarket support. Never know it may just outshine the LS3, maybe not.

You are right only because of the fact that the camaro has IRS and not a 8.8 inch so it'll get out launched all day.

Livernois has already tore apart a new 5.0 and is going to do some in house CNCing on the heads.

And yes the Mustang will have the advantage on a drag strip with the weight difference and SRA.

I do get a laugh though at all the people that were claiming the 5.0 was maxxed from the factory and you wouldn't see a 450hp na 5.0, I want to clarify I saw these statements on other sites not necessarily here. It seems to take decently well to mods. Evo's car is making 414rwhp with bolt-ons(exhaust, tune, k&n drop in airfilter).

I don't care if it was a 100 shot or a 200 shot, that was one good running car. Driver launched the hell out of it too. The 2011's are really impressing me.

Looks like the Evo Performance car might have lunched the motor on the gas.

Lol from what I understand Evo Performance made at least one other full run down the track after that incident. Guess the engine is fine.

They are some of the rare few pushing these cars hard so we learn how they handle.

I expect a few shops to lunch some motors till more gets figured out.

I totally agree with this statement. I am not a fan of FORD at all. But I give credit where credit is due! And I also agree that FORD knows how to Sell cars, and it looks like they Really are stepping it up performance wise with the new 5.0L. Mod for Mod I don't see ANY new Camaro beating the new 2011 GT's if they truely respond this well to mods! If the mod list is Acurate, Which I'm not arguing that it is or isn't, Than GM has their work cut out for them. They may need to take a New Camaro, Drop 1k lbs. and put in a LS3 with a Larger Cam, More gear, A Solid Rear Axle(Anything but the dreaded 10 Bolt) lol, and a slightly more agressive tune from the factory and then see what happens. But we all know thats not gonna happen. They'll just Put in the Supercharged Engine like the 1 in the New ZR1's. And put out 550+ HP and leave it at that for a while. Or until they try something else that will likely strike some more attention that they can get hype about.
Either way, The New GT's Run DAMN GOOD for what they are, and in STOCK form.

I say the same, I give these guys Credit for trying to push the limits on these cars, when they know so little about them.
You never know how much nitrous they ran on that pass, or what the conditions were that caused the nitrous backfire!
It sucks that had to happen, But mistakes are going to happen when building cars. Either Driver, Builder, Tuner, Or mechanical! It's just part of it.

Just my .02
And I too am waiting to see how this thread goes from here!

As soon as I see Sand rails and dune buggies, Hot Rods and Lowriders, Rx7's and other imports with the new 5.0 My argument is made for me....
I have seen PLENTY of mustangs with ls1's as well...It's weird how 95% of above enthusiast's listed above use sbc/bbc/lt1/lsx...nuff said

I have heard rumors they changed intakes and that might be the part that failed. Possibly no motor damage but this is just what Evo posted on their Facebook page:

We're Uploading a 1080P HD Video of our 2011 Mustang GT 5.0L 4V Street Car Running 10's in the 1/4 Mile! There is a Scary Moment In the Video.....Get Ready....!
They make it sound like it wasn't catastrophic but who knows.

And damn another new post by Evo on a mustang board:

There is nothing wrong with the car, we have better footage in our 1080P HD Video!
Alright asked them directly their response to the damage of the car:

It didn't do any damage, it just popped the silicone connector off our Prototype CAI!

This is a rear we had laying around done. That's the only reason a spool was used. And yes you can drive a spool on the street. Did it for years. It's the only way to do it.

Bassani X. Welded it in to stock pipes ( USING STOCK CONVERTERS )
Bassani Mufflers
Bogart Racing Wheels Front and Rear
28x10 slicks ( I know guys are spoiled now adays with their drag radials and all, I remember when I started back in the early 90's I drove to the track with my slicks in the back with the jack and bolted them on.

Kirkey Driver seat with Manaul stock Bracket.
Nitrous size not sure. Made 60rwhp on dyno wet kit ( I checked with Justin, he said the Jet Ratings called for 100hp )
Adjustable Stock Replacement Struts Eibach
Eibach Drag Launch Kit ( no air in bag )
Adjustable Rear Shock
Adjustable Urethane Panhard Rod
Metco Adjustable Upper w/ 05-09 Mount
Metco Lowers w/ ICM Brackets

STOCK Driveshaft / STOCK Computer no custom tuning
STOCK AIR FILTER LOL

Driver Mod
The Evolution car is more impressive imo. It ran 11.8 with just a cai,mid-pipe, catback, tune, upper/lower control arms. Which is quicker than the JPC car was going with the same mods plus 4.56's.

Haha you don't know much about nitrous do you? A 100 shot especially on a v8 is actually pretty safe. Anything over 100shot I would pull a little timing but thats it, for mustangs anyway.
