2013 Mustang vs C5 - YouTube

Filmed by Sean's potato cam. This is the first run. Sean didn't record the second one. The second run he ran out the whole time versus letting off in the first one and it was even uglier for him.
Another fine kill Marc!

Vettes can't 60ft. Lol

Maaannnn I was hoping to hear some real life troll comments during the C5 & 5.bro race, Snake. You let me down.

However, awesome runs, looked fun as hell for you guys.

It's the longtubes, I swear. Every single hard running MILD modded 5.0, has longtubes. Just last night a local 5.0 beat out a H/C/I/E G8 GT built by Rick Crawford. 5.0 has an AirAid, Longtubes, O/R X and catback. That's it. Car runs HARD.

C5 and I ran twice. Wish snake recorded the second run as well - it was even uglier for the C5 because he didn't let out early like the first and I somewhat attempted to peddle the car versus mashing it.

snake and I ran twice as well. I'm sure at some point we'll do a dig run when he isn't 6-1/2 hours away from home and worried about his transmission shitting the bed.

I noticed a nice gain with the LT's, orx, and tune.

I typically see 440whp from a full bolt on coyote with a boss, lt's, other bolt ons, and without e85. If long tubes do that much then I think it could be said that those pick up quite a bit more than the other mods done to them. I.e boss intake, cai, tune etc

Just because he beat a 116 trapping car from a roll, doesn't mean that he traps 116 or more. Probably at least 113 mph though.

Nice races though. I love that 4 eye fox!

Thanks a lot man. Marc and I said that same thing. I'd likely out trap him because in the quarter I'd get up to speed faster due to being lighter with better gears. I'd say Marc on a tire would be a 113 or 114 car. I wish I had street tires worth a ****, too, so we could have done a lower roll than 40. A roll where I could utilize my first gear would help me a lot.

I want to do them badly, but it would be pointless since I'm 88% sure the car will have turbo's next year instead of a Paxton or TVS.

I would agree on LT's picking up more than the others you listed. I noticed a decent gain with my manifold and CAI, but I bet it would be better with the LT's instead. The CAI doesn't really add much from what I've seen. The stock unit is pretty damn nice really.


I bet Marc's car would be every bit of a 116 trap car. Or damn close to it.

Cyber calls every car a race car because he legitimately has a race car and it isn't all that for the work done to it. I do LOL at that
