IMO it would have been a better race to compare a 305hp/LT1 WS6 to the 305hp Cobra.

Nevertheless, it still took Ford's top of the line performance car to beat GM's entry level performance car all through the 90's :stirspot:

Yep, and I never say anything different. Which is why I don't talk **** about other people's cars.

C. It's not just one post; it's the majority of your posts.

Plenty more than you claimed... Probably all of the 30 I mentioned.

you would be surprised how similar the two cars are for as far apart as they are in years.
Why would I be surprised? The two are based in the same underpinnings from 1979 through 2004 with only slight modifications here and there along the way.

Im not going into detail in a thred but pm me and id be glad to tell you what they are.
If you're getting it right, I already know what they are. Did a swap into a Fox back in 2000...

And yea its a swap of course its not factory 92 bolt ons thats a given . I said 4 mods on the engine and drive terrain. thats not hard to comprehend
No you didn't. You simply said 4 mods into the 10's, and then stated them. I merely pointed out those are hardly the only mods. Gears is one thing... However, if you plan to go 11's or quicker in a Fox chassis, you also upgrade the rear axle housing and chunk to A: handle the power and B: make it legal.

as for the rest of the engine and trans itself they are factory ford mustang parts not factory 92 mustang parts. Did i word that good enough for everyone to understand? I keep callin it how it is as i did the first time im sorry you dont understand the obvious.
What's obvious is that you don't even know what you're talking about... You constantly lack detail while making outrageous claims. Poor grammar merely hurts your credibility. Finally, nobody cares which parts were made by whom... You're building a car to go faster or quicker than it used to... Do it right and don't worry about where the parts came from or how they're labled.

Maybe so, but that's rarely done.

Nevertheless, it still took Ford's top of the line performance car to beat GM's entry level performance car all through the 90's :stirspot:
As if it's Fords fault that GM didn't offer a better F-body... To beat that Cobra, we have to step up to the Corvette, or modify our F-bodies, either of which increases cost and/or labor.

Besides, it wasn't until the 93 model Z came out that Ford needed to step up their performance. They already offered a Cobra, so naturally, that was a good platform to use, considering its already higher price and slight upgrades over standard... Like the SS over Z, the Cobra was to the GT. At least that was the deal before 1996.

Well if you talkin about the posts when i was backing up hio you dont have to agree with them, its just what i have seen his car do. Just like if you was saying my car doesnt do what its has done, he would back me up cause he knows. Now lets get back to the show....

Sorry i forgot to mention axles that will still be c clipped and factory 28 splined for now. And 33 after i do a blower without c clips. And thats it no welded tubes no heavy bracing bs. And I have no plans on a cage because im 6'5 and cant get in and out with them very well so no it wont be legal passes mr. im writing a book. But thats what track rentals are for. The axles will be stock demensions but not stock grade steel. Did you also run for president in 2000 cuz u did everything else that year? lol

Stopsign likes to kid around and feed the trolls. But he does know his **** when its time to be serious.

Irun11s is usually right on the money. Who cares what he drives.

Notch please do something with your 8.8 before running a tire on it. Run a used girdle and weld those tubes up!! Hide HIO's LS7 till late next year and I will give you a girdle to use.

You were just fun to pick on. And now that the WS6 is gone, I think your Taurus has my Eclipse in the bag.

Made no sense to keep it when I did not like it enough to justify paying insurance on it for only driving it 1,800 miles in 6 months. I'll step into the Vette game when I'm done with college.

He is not the only one that doesn't care to read a post that sounds like it is coming from an inbred hick who barely graduated kindergarten. I personally believe that one's spelling and grammar regardless of where it is used is a good indication of their professionalism and class in person.

Don't take that a personal shot at you, as opinions are just that - Opinions

I apologize. From now on I won't post videos with good races if I think it might start a debate

You're right, I'll tell my brother to sell his turd and go buy a WS6 for this weekend so we can redo the races the right way...

I agree with your sarcasm. The WS6 was a huge sales plot that in reality barely increased performance. I just like the looks of them in comparison. My buddy with a regular 96 Trans Am (A4, cloth, catback, 2.73 gear) and I raced with the same mods and my stock 3.23 gear and I barely pulled him. (Both on Sumi's)

All you gotta do marc is not read it. It's just like when the radio station I'm listening to plays a shitty song, I turn the channel. Not evryone has a office job were they do alot of reading/writing/typeing. Not everyone had the opertunity to go to college either

Besides have you ever listened to any rap songs??? If rappers can mutilate the english language like that and call it art.....then I can **** up all the grammer and spelling I want.
