dont gxp run like a 14.1 or something?

i bet he makes about as much hp as that gt.
makes for a good roll, especially againt an auto gt.

when there isnt a big gap in performance, anything can happen on the street.

I agree with this. Thats why going from 2 down to 2 up from 60-120 is hard to believe. That is not the normal signs of small gap in performance.

You must have raced a v6 or the guy wasn't racing. Everyone knows young guys driving a car with paper plates are the real experts.

There are no exceptions to anything.


*end sarcasm*

I miss anything?
YOU finally see it.


Lucky he didn't race a Fbody.

Why's that??

10 Mustang GT: 4.6l 24v 315 hp 325tq 3550 curb weight

07 GP GXP: 5.3l 32v 303hp 323tq 3600 curb weight


If he was bone stock and I have an intake and exhaust....with a gearing advantage. That's sounds like a win to me. And like I said....maybe he let out as I was passing him. And maybe it wasn't two cars....but he was definately in my rear view mirror! And I definately hawked him down and passed him between 60-120. But why get butt hurt and pull a pass on the shoulder after I brake?? His car was slower and he knew it. Why else pull a douche move like that?

...not to mention a traction advantage, if you ever ran the guy from a dig. I wouldn't bother defending your win. Some people won't believe you even if you had a jet engine welded to your roof and a transplanted LS9 under the hood.

Good kill BTW. The other guy was a total asshat for screaming by on the shoulder. No excuse for that.

What!!!???
Also the 2011 V6 has went 13.7 best for stock. The 2010 GT went like 13.4 stock with the track pack.
Haha what??!! Please tell us you're not serious ohio, you've so far attained a somewhat reputable name for yourself here (I use the term loosly), but to make a statement like that is just plain ignorant. I'm not saying you are wrong, but it is the street and we have no reason not to believe what is said is true. You on the other hand, well you have to go above and beyond for any kind of credibility here on ls1tech, driving that shitstang of yours lol. Just pokin' fun, but I have to disagree with your post.

HUH..That is what people have done. Is it every one. Nope. BUt have to think the 2011 V6 has as much power as the 2010 GT.



I think op's car could beat it. My buddy had a impala SS with some mods and ran low 13's with it. same engine and all.

And we all know that 2010 and prior mustang are super slow. Even modded. They can't even beat stock LS1 Fbody's. LOL

I have also ran a GP GXP with my 3.4 pullied GTP and would barely edge it out to 100 and my TA would easily put several lengths on the GTP.

I like the GP GXP, I even test drove a few but saying you pulled 4 cars from 60-120 just dont seem right to me. The guy let off maybe when he knew he couldnt rape a 4-door.

Good kill! I think this is one of those times when everyone is going to have different personal experiences and no one is going to agree.

As much power? I suppose, but I would think that there are some subtle differences...like torque under the curve. But I guess that doesn't matter on the street

Not being able to beat an ls1 does not make something super slow, nice poke though

Lighter car with more hp, more torque, and rwd...why would it win? Silly me, I must know nothing about racing

It's hilarious how many guys say the exact opposite about the 5.3 FWD platform...Ive seen a lot of guys complaining on here about how hard these cars are to launch.
