You guys need to weigh them. typically those cars are 300lb apart. Hammer not having ac will help some so it could be a little less than 300....but not much less.

I'd make that turdgen weigh what that fox does. Then watch the crying while I laughed.

It might be heavy. But it's surprising how good this car handies. Not being dumb either.

I'll drink a martini of Hio tears because foxes are better cars Lighter, quicker, just better...but in this case, not very much lighter but still better.

They do handle very well.

Laughable? All you do is jack off to how losing weight on cars is a good thing, so since FORD made lighter Mustangs than GM did F-bodies, it's cheating? You just cant help yourself but to try to discredit something when the GM car is inferior. Third gens will continue live in the shadow of fox Mustangs when the two are compared, face it. I know it eats you alive, but it's the truth.

Oh, and the above ^^^ about putting a supercharger on yours, that would never happen for 2 reasons:

1) You'd lose any shred of credibility you may have (in the eyes of most) because all you've done is talk **** about FI

2) You'd have to swallow your pride and realize FI is a better way to make power

All you'll do is throw out hypothetical situations that you'd NEVER do, so they hold no water....

Now, do your predictable dance and bring up my car's 1/4 mile times because you're proven wrong

You getting the excuses ready for when Hummer gets drug? Do as you say others should do.. weigh your SS down to match my race weight and run my minor bolt on 5.0. I even offered to drive to your track.. AND ill do one better and buy the 14 - 16 50# bags of sand for you

Foxbodys need suspension, bolt ons, and a good driver to easily crack off low 13s. 12s aren't out of the question either at full weight. H/C 5.0 is gonna be hard to match....

You realize Doug runs almost 1.5 seconds faster than you... Do you think that your car with big and littles weighs at least 1000 pounds more than his car?

Doug runs 10.9s, so math shows 12.14-10.90 = 1.24 which is less than a second and a quarter, not "almost a second and a half".

Unless you're going to publicly go on record saying you think his 10.7 run was legit, which would also mean you think his 1.2 60' is legit

I even gave him the benefit of the doubt in my math equation above of saying he ran 10.90s and not 10.9X whatever it was.

Math is hard.

Doug ran 10.7.

Even using your ricer math of 1.2, that still indicates that Doug would need to gain around 1000 pounds.

It's not ricer math, you tried to make the gap sound bigger than it is, and I called you on it. The math I used was simple subtraction AND giving Doug a few hundredths benefit of the doubt. Also, I just want you to answer me, YES OR NO, Is this slip pictured below an accurate 1/4 mile representation of Doug's car on the day he went to the track, as it sat that day, with no error of any kind in the timing equipment used to measure his performance, or other circumstances involved such that would show an inaccurate performance measure of his car?:




You'll tap dance your *** off to avoid answering straightly, I know...

Yes and no.

Easy math says yes. Real world math says no.

That extra weight would affect his suspension, gearing and weight transfer.

So really, 600 to 700lbs would probably make things equal.

Talk about missing the point completely. I don't know why Doug running 10.7 upsets you so much.

Point is at equal race weight, Doug still slaughters Spaz.
