No, that's the only thing they have to hold onto. So they hold onto it as tight as a 1 year old holds onto it momma's tit.

And I am far from a fanboy.
140+rwhp should more than make up a 600lb difference.

Sounds like you got your *** whooped either way. So now your crying about being to fat to move.

You had a choice.....you coulda bought a very nice low mileage used c6 Z06. Just think.....then you coulda been the fast athletic kid in school instead of the strong fat one.

Rolls are for dinner bud.

Hey Heater !! You see what I mean^^^^ 4.6pimpmaster3000 wants a roll race with me. He has 100+rwhp turbo motor that's turned up so much it blows up every month.....vs my bolt-on n/a 80,000 mile ls6. Worst part is he would probably lose.

Within the first couple of pages you can see where it took a wrong turn. Basically, someone with a MACH 1 posted up an 1/8 mile ET & trap and did a calculation on what it should run in the 1/4. Went bad after that.
I blew that **** out of the water!!

Yea....that's why you sold yours and went with a boosted car.

I think the argument is stupid no matter how you look at it. Both engines are far out of production and both have been super ceded by much better engines. It's like me walking in here boasting how my BMW is capable of keeping up with both cars with bolt ons with less displacement and 100 whp per liter. Pointless argument. Both are great engines and deserve respect. Even if a Mach 1 doesn't trap over 110 mph a low to mid 12 with a bolt on car made in the early 2000's is impressive.

******* ls1 owners calling foul/troll on ls1tech? This of all places? Where Jesus built the motor and no mustang can hang without a supercharger. I think that priveledge was revoked a decade ago.

Hio your right we need to do a dig for FUN so we can keep it close! 40-140 might get ugly. I'm curious to know how much that race car weighs? Lol. Either way I'm impressed by your cars trap speed for the power.

I highly doubt any LS owner here is worried. There are some fast ones but not a whole lot. Look at the OP's Mach as a perfect example of that. 108mph trap? I did that in my LS1 when it was STOCK!

Most stang guys are cool and the respect LS cars. Its just the trolls here that have a uber hard on for the LS platform they just can't help themselves.

Well guys, its time to head over to GT-RLife and post up about how cool my Corvette is. See ya!

And you would be wrong. I do not need 140+rwhp more to beat one. If I had 140+rwhp more, I would walk one.

And no.. I have not lost to one... matter of fact, I have run a decent amount of street random races, and have lost to one car so far, and he is posting in this thread. Faster cars out there? SURE.. there always is, and mine will be getting faster also. I have not had the chance to run a C6Z yet. I have ripped the front bumpers off a couple C5Z's and C6 Grandsport though. Looking for a C6Z though. I'll prove my rwhp advantage claim and you can mail me a cheeseburger when I prove it.

And yep, I actually looked at the C6Z's before I got my GT500, and I was also looking at a few used ZR1's.. they don't suit my needs... I need 4 seats, and whichever car i got I wanted to be daily driver material. I also looked at the 5th Gen Camaros, and not a fan of the interior or gauge setup.. and the outward visibility is horrible. Didn't even consider anything from Chrysler because even though I might like chunky(My car), I don't like outright cows.

And really... I'm not that hard to get along with... I don't spew the Ford blue anywhere. I am here because it is interesting seeing the threads. And if we were not here, just think... you would be bored silly.

You just need to learn to give props when they are due. "Yes Stoppy, your car runs good for the mods you have done to it"..comon... you can doo eet!

Wrong in my case. x100.. I post on both sites, along with Mustangforums, fordgt500, etc. I just like reading forum threads man. I didn't come over here to troll.. but I DO like to get involved in the fun back and forth sometimes.


I highly doubt any LS owner here is worried. There are some fast ones but not a whole lot. Look at the OP's Mach as a perfect example of that. 108mph trap? I did that in my LS1 when it was STOCK!

That's great... my IS350 V6 trapped 105 with a F-Sport air filter.. so what?
There seems to be a bunch of people hanging on arguing about 108 this and 110 that. He ran what time he ran.. its that simple.. will he run better? Yes.. should he run more than 108-110? I believe so.. so what? Too many sensitive people on here mang.




Most stang guys are cool and the respect LS cars. Its just the trolls here that have a uber hard on for the LS platform they just can't help themselves.

And I would fall into this catagory. I respect all fast cars, and am not here to troll.. although it IS fun getting under the skin of some sometimes... would you not agree? It's all in fun, and anyone who would take it seriously needs to back away from the keyboard for a bit.

Well guys, its time to head over to GT-RLife and post up about how cool my Corvette is. See ya!
I'll run you when I get my UGR Gallardo finished up.
