Default Raced a 99-04 GT

I have a 2001 6-speed stock WS6 and I just got a full tank of gas 5 miles before this happened.

The other guy (Cool guy, talked to him before the race b/c we had several poorly timed races before, pulled over, agreed on the next race.)

40-??? with him honking it off was what was agreed to.

He honked it off, I waited until I heard the first bit of acceleration from his car and then NAILED it. I let off at the top of 3rd (100ish).

We pulled over and I asked him how he would call it. He said "You definitely pulled on me, 2 cars or so, if we had kept going you would have had me by 4 or 5 (I dont know how fast he meant by "kept going"). I said "I thought it was 3", he said if I counted my rear bumper pulling to his front bumper, then yes, it was 3. (That was what I had meant by 3. He meant 2 cars worth of space was between our bumpers.).

All in all, GOOD RACE! I don't know the year of the GT, I neglected to ask. He did have a fenderwell CAI and a flowmaster cat-back/mufflers? The car was a 5-speed.

+1 to a great race and a good sport!

Good Kill. It takes a alot of mods for a 99-04 GT to beat a LS1 especially from a roll. Nice WS6 btw.

Thanks. Somehow I thought I should have won by more? This sound about right though? I DID just get gas arg. I had 1/3 tank, PERFECT! for racing on, before I did that

Awesome. I guess it's just that my WS6 feels so much faster than a GT I expected a land-slide victory. Guess my ***-dyno is off, lol.

You also waited for him to go first, that might have been another car or so.

I don't get great races from Mach1s unless they have like every bolt-on.

The 3 I've races only had exhaust.

I'm just giving you ****. I used to have a v6 stand and I would have a GT, Cobra, or Mach 1 right now but they are overpriced here in hawaii.

I'm still torn between getting a GT500, SRT Charger, or C6 Z06 or z51 LS2 when I get home in two years.

Yeah, Justin used to have a POS V6 Mustang. Wasn't it a singleport too? And noride, GT's aren't THAT bad. My bolt-on GT is just a touch slower than a Mach, and I'm soon to be getting longtubes/4.10s/tune, which will put me very close to a stock LS1. I'll be happy with that for a while. But good race to the OP
