Default '13 5.0 Mustang vs Cam/Exhaust LS2 GTO

Not much action last night but these two were closer than I thought they were going to be!

5.0 went to the track Friday and was trapping 114, GTO runs strong.

Mustang should be trapping more than 114 with those mods. Was not impressed with GTO. Nice video though lol.

Nice runs! put some long tubes an the Mustang, and it might be a little different. Both cars have stock gearing I take it?

Good runs.
Was that a Civic trying to get in on the action in the last race?
That thing looked like it was ready to leave both cars in the dust then hit the brakes.

The 5.0 is a non track pack car so it has like 3.31 rear gears I think, 3.73s and it would've been a difference race!

Yeah that Civic is no joke, he was pulled over on the side of the road waiting for his friends and he thought we were them, he had a head of steam behind us though. He says it's a 120 trap car but one of our friends that knows the car says he's sand bagging that number...

When I trapped 114 I was side by side a bolt-on 5.0 like the one in the video

5.0 said he wasn't taking it to his new redline either, he's got it at 7500 now, said he wasn't even going to 7k, he's not used to it yet, just had it upped yesterday morning.

Well he shouldn't, it's pointless to rev that high for him lol.

I know that 5.0 and dirver is okay at best. And taking it 7500 is pointless cause he don't have the boss intake. So 7200 at most is where he needs to shift. And he has a roush intake which is completly worthless. Also he didn't make 418wtq.

Also at the track he was on stock tires. Not DR's but stock street tires.
