Lol you may have a point there. Hopefully man dad would rejoice quietly if he wins lol. The sport mode in this Mustang is definitely more aggressive than the one in the Genesis, but of course the Genesis has the 8 speed auto vs my 6 speed.

For the record, I never lost to any V6 mustangs when stock. Might want to hope he spins and bogs. The Genesis traction control is a BITCH. Even turned off, it still takes over

I'm just poking you trying to get you to run him lol. Either way, it'll be fun for sure. Fun runs are more fun than serious one. Plus. If he decides to tune it, you'd be a good baseline for him

Ok I've seen some of these races before, but I guess I didn't realize you were stock in them. You're right though....your car did in fact beat that V6 Mustang fair and square from what I could see. I'm starting to realize what a nice sleeper these cars are lol. What's the typical rwhp of these cars stock, any idea? I'm wondering if they are underrated a little

From what I've read, they dyno around 278whp stock. So it seems about right. Maybe it's just the gearing and the 8 speed behind it. I've read they have 3.90 gears. If they didn't have such a conservative trans tune on these things, they'd run a lot better. But can't really complain about a 4000lb car with sub 300tq running with and beating some of the cars it has

It has to be the 8 speed. For it to be down 40hp from the 4.6, yet be .1 faster is saying something.
