Funny. I've only ever lost to one 99-04 GT and he had heads/cam. I've raced almost a billion of them.
An even more funny story is that I raced a 00 GT auto with a Roushcharger at 6psi in my stock (stock) MR2 and I stomped him so bad from a stop he quit when I was about 4 cars ahead.

A real good friend of mine has an 02 Roush Stage 2. (no supercharger) he has the roush CAI, x-pipe, high flow cats and SLP LM1's. All I have is a 200,000 mile LT1 M6 with a cutout and I outrun him consistantly.
I know a guy that had an 05 or 06 automatic Mustang GT with exhaust and tune and he slowly pulled me from about a 40 kick.. I was in third when I should have been in second, but winnings winning. Never got a chance for another race.

This just happened an hour ago. A bubby of mine who has an 07 mustang with CAI, LT's, ORX, flowcrappers, and a tune, 5spd car. We went to eat and Project Cheap A** LT1 off the spray pulled him by 1 car from a dead stop little shy of a quarter (maybe 10-15ft). LT1 pulled away hard 1st and 2nd gear buy 3 cars. But the trans just doesnt pull hard in 3rd for some reason. So the mustang did catch up but only 1 car length and stop catching. So there. And if any of you dont know about Project Cheap A** LT1:
94Z
181,xxx miles
A4 built 4l65e factory stall
3.42's
52mm tb
shorty headers
ORY
Hooker catback
My special TunerCat tune.
Does have nitrous and stand alone fuel but relay is bad so there was no chance of spray until its fixed.
I mean I have less than $3000 in the car with the mods, and it just took an 07 Mustang. Cost for cost, mod for mod LT1 > 05+mustang

No doubt the LT1 is the hands down winner if the goal is to go fast for cheap.

^ I definatly agree that if you want to go fast for cheap an LT1 is the way to go since you can get a pretty decent one for around 5000 compared to the cheapest 05+ GT that I have seen is like 17k I think, but not positive on that.
