Default took on stang gt

i was coming home from school and i came up on a mustang gt on i-35 probably 04'. so anyways i havent race anyone good yet in a long time. not saying im a bad ***, but when you race imports its not really fun. so anyway backed up a lil a let the traffic get ahead of us and punched from 3rd and kept dead even through mid 4th before traffic came up on us. we pulled over and talked for a sec. he told him he had intake, full exhaust, and something else i can't remember, but good race considering my ws6 is practically stock....

unless that something else was n2o,supercharger or a turbo you should have slaughtered him

he said "something else" which means one more thing not 4(5 if you count the cams as 2) jk

I'm guessing the other thing is gears. 4.10's in those things makes a HUGE difference.

Ford's small displacement motors love to rev (especially the 32V DOHC).... why not take advantage of it. What I notice the most about my MACH is when I race another car where the shift points are lower than mine, as each shift happens, I can put more and more space between us. The gears just allows the power to come on sooner!

So was it an 04 or an 05? The 03-04 Cobra style or the new GT500 style?
