2011 5.0 vs 2006 GTO
Not sure if this goes in this section, but a kill is a kill?
I made my way out to the local dig spot last night, and had the chance to meet a 5.0 owner. Really cool guy, and ended up owning 2 GTOs in the past. I asked him if he wanted to make a fun run, and he was down.

We were both on Street tires. His best pass of the night was a 13.1 at 109, and I was running constant 12.8.12.9 all night at 112

No excuses here. I think a 13.1 is probably a respectable time for an average driver. Too many people bitch if a stock car doesn't run the optimal magazine time every time it goes down the track. Meanwhile, 95% of the people who bitch couldn't do any better. Props to the modified GTO for the excellent kill on a stock Mustang.

1.9s would put him in the 12s easily.

Mustang got the jump, then got smoked. I am sure they are respectible but everytime a vid shows up with them being beet the Mustang crowd jumps in and makes excuses. Do the Mustang crowd realley wont to be associated with that? The havent figured out that Ford took a page out of the partners ( Mazda's) bok and has over inflated HP and performance specs since 2001? Anyone else remember the fiasco that was the 2000's DOC Cobra buy back program?

Like I told you, the Mustang 5.0's numbers are actually pretty spot on this time. Of course they put every computer nanny they could think of on it so that the atypical Mustang owner doesnt go out and kill themselves right off the bat when they drive it the same way they drove there older GT's.
