new mustangs
im too scared to race new mustangs, being that 1 out of 5 is a police cop around here. lots of undercovers in tinted out / rimmed up mustangs with loud exhaust. yeah its messed up right.

Just a thought, don't post what you have no idea about. I know it'll hurt your post count but it's a pretty good practice.
That's the second time you call me out there bud.. I am sorry I don't know about your beloved Ford..not my problem if you want to root for the other guy..
I am too busy playin with and helping people with the Chevy products. Take the time to look into some of the other threads when you pull Ford's Dick out of your mouth, and you will see that I have a damn good idea what I am talking about, expecially since I just got done building my own car..I am sure that there is a few people that I have helped out that can back me on that one also.

I really don't understand why all the hatred for the other guy. I'm glad ford is still offering pony cars. Dodge is getting back into the game with their hemi. Chevy, which has been draggin' it's ***, is finally bringing something to the table with the new camaro.
I find it amazing that in these days of emmissions regulations and stringent fuel economy standards, comsumers are still able to go out and find powerful rear wheel drive cars at affordable prices.
Kudos to all the manufacturers who haven't forgotten us gearheads and thanks for keeping the performance revolution going

I haven't seen any 500's around here yet. I see alot of new GT's but never anybody that wants to play... Not even a rev... Eh, oh well. I'll eventually make it to the track and hopefully see and maybe race some of them. Whether they are faster or slower or whatever, I'm glad there are different choices amongs the brands because I just dont think it would be as much fun talking **** and debating if we all drove camaro's/firebirds.

Historically I've seen them run the same times as a stock LT1 car 13.9 - 14.1 @ 98ish. I haven't faced any that have really given me a run for my money around town.
I have respect for the mod motor though, I've seen what they are capable of, and they are torque monsters. I have a friend with a 'Turd' '98 GT with the 2v 4.6 that put down well over 400 ft lbs of torque on a 75 shot with intake, exhaust, and tuning. My car made about 450 on a 100 shot, so I was definitely impressed.

I was out last night, I put on my MT ET Streets and drove around just to see who I could dig up to mess with, and at a light I came upon an '06 GT. I revved it as I coasted up and he revved back, he had some Exhaust done to it. We both lined up, and waited for the light. It turned green and me and him both launched hard, I got into 2nd about 50ft off the line, and left him by about 3 carlengths as soon as it shifted. He gave up after that, and turned off before coming up to the next light..
