788 AWHP Evo vs 800 RWHP GT500 IN MEXICO
#64
on his drag set up with slicks and skinnies he ran a 6.67@111 and 10.42@136 he uses the car more for twisties and cruising around since he has a 1500 horsepower 7 second foxbody as well.

[QUOTE=mattzoom;15233595]**** is heavy and that was when he was at 700 wheel[/QUOTE
Understand but I know guys running those times with a little less power. Suspension does play some into it yes. Guess I would just be let down with 700whp even and only running mid 10s. But knowing that I think the EVO will rape him even in a dig run. LOL

That was a waste. Nice, fast cars though. Lousy site for hosting a video, too.
1,000lbs lighter than a GT500? I don't think so unless weight reduction and plenty of it.

Couple bad *** cars right there.
Wow...butt hurt right quick. Surely looked like the Mustang got its *** handed to him. Even if he was spinning, maybe he should do something about that so he doesn't get his *** kicked so bad. Would it have been a lot closer if he weren't spinning, yep, but it wasn't. I remember racing my Fox back in the day and if I accidentally lit-up my tires off the line and got smoked, then I certainly lost the race my good man.

Anyway...I am not a Ford Nutswinger...I have had GMs and Mopars..So you are wrong to assume that also.
Getting back to the race...If you look at video (because evidently some of you missed it), he states that at the end of the video "you can clearly see who the winner is". I simply stated that the video did not show a winner based on power alone. The "winner" was based on another car who did not show up with at minmum, a tire, let alone suspension. I agree that there was a winner but not based on power. That was my only point. Please do not put word in my mouth. At the end of the race, I still wondered who "would have" won if the GT500 stayed in it....so the race did not really answer my question.
Maybe it did for some of you since you like to assume (or hate Mustangs), but not me..
...and for the guy who stated that I should get out to race more, I am out every Thursday night for Test-N-Tune at a local 1/8 mile track. I put more miles on my car going down the track than some people on here put on their cars while driving their garage queens to shows. If you don't know me than don't assume.

I made no comment on you being a Ford Nutswinger or anything along those lines. Btw, I'm a Mustang fanatic holmes. And you being butt hurt, well that was just based off your first reply. And I was just joshin' anyway. Everyone gets bent outta shape sometimes. Whether the Mustang had more cajones or not (obviously did),the fact is that the Evo was indeed quicker in those runs due to other circumstances. Just face facts man, don't speculate so much that the Mustang SHOULD'VE been much faster. Because in that race, it is the way it is. Shoulda woulda coulda, the Evo was on top.
