Got killed by two stangs.... Im pretty new to street racing so dont be so harsh but im man enough to admit to it.... here is the video 
lost to stangs
The mach1 was supposedly stock
and the GT had gears, headers, bassani exhaust and probably more which he did not mention...
My car is pretty much stock...
Both cars had Nittos while i had
Shitstone Potenzas..
My reaction was really late also as you can see in the video, i take off like a whole second after they do... i need alot more practice especailly on launching...
Advice would be appreciated..

those rustangs were NOT stock, but your reaction on a few of those wuz way off, and you need tires, I did notice alot of smoke comin out of the gt in the last race, are you sure he wasnt sprayin?
get some LT's, a cam, and some stickier tires and you should be ahead of them!

I couldn't tell for sure but it looked like you were shifting a little too soon. There is no way that those cars were stock if you were driving your car as hard as you should have been. Get tires and practice reacting a little faster. When you go on a three honk race you should go on the third honk not after the third honk. The main thing to remember when you are racing is not to get so pumped up that you destroy the tires and/or shift bad. Bust his *** next time. Good video.
Easy to pull away with a good jump off the dig...I prefer to start a race by the other person's motor and from a slight roll. We go 2 races...each car getting to take the jump once. Helps to eliminate wins from a head start and you can easily see who is faster.

The guy in the Mach 1 is my cousin. All he has is nittos, K & N, rims. The gt has exatly what you said and headers. That's it. Just because the Mach 1 beat you doesn't mean he isn't stock so i don't know what ya'l are talkin about. Get it through your heads that Mustangs can be fast too. Just because it isn't a LS1 doesn't mean it it slow.

haha
I have run that blue GT from a roll in SA.... he lied about the result and I called him out to the track. It took about 15 pages of arguing and BS excuses to finally get him to agree to run me at the track. I still havent got my run.
the gt has 3.73s, headers, x pipe, exhaust, pullies, timing adjuster, and nittos
highest trap I saw from him was 104-5... but I dont know if that was before the long tubes or not
the mach 1 has k&n and nittos like they said

Everybody gets their tail beat sometime, and congrats on owning up to your two mustang deaths not many people do that. They is always somebody faster, but keep this in mind, your motor is still one of the most powerful and reliable production engines in the world, people who own LS1's know what I'm talking about. LT1's are the rough and mean uncle with a fast left and LS1's are the cousin that lives on the edge with a perverted streak. 4.6's will always have to play catch up to ls1's, that being said watch for more developedment of the ls2 from GM it will get interesting.
nice death and vids man. i'd say get some 275 nitto's and you'd have em! also work on your street racing skills, launching and keep in mine, go after the 3rd honk! for total domination, just add some lt's to your ls1

you definitely have a faster car than the GT, you were pullin back on him clearly in the 2nd. and he got the jump both times. the mach 1 was a little faster, but also you did have a bad bad r/t, sorry- i hate to say it, but that GT sounded MEAN.
dude you got *** raped bad lol that was funny...great vids...you really need to react better though otherwise that will happen everytime...like the others said they looked way quicker than stock considering the oen dude had 3 peeps in the car and still had his way with you.
