there is always someone faster than you.
i'm faster than 98% of the cars on the road. i have every right to say whatever i want about overrated cars. it has nothing to do with how fast my car is. it has everything to do with how slow yours is (and by "yours", i don't physically mean yours. i mean the person in question).

Ok I give up you win. You want to talk numbers but don't show any. You want to talk real world and I show a car on the track you don't show any. That my friend is talk. No proof on your part to show diffrent. You say you come on these forms so that people get well informed information. You are sitting at a world of info at your fingers and yet don't take the time to search and show. I myself have not driven a Roush on the track have you? Yet you are calling a mid 12 car and will for sure bleed Ford blue until the day you die. That is great but let's talk facts. The 500 is a mid 12 car from the factory with VERY much potential to post better. You can refuse to see anything and nothing that is posted will change your mind and that is not what I'm trying to do neither. Just trying to give people accurate information which is exactly what you say you are here for.

ROFLOL. I wouldn't brag about "driving skills" if all you do is pull up to the line, stab the gas, and steer straight down the track. Doesn't matter if it is your first time or your last - the absolute easiest F-body to drag race is a bone stock, 2.73 geared A4.
The average 12 year old could go a 2.0 60 ft in your car, so long as he/she could reach the pedals, that is.

Tell me...what is it that you did with your car - the very first time you raced it - to get that stellar 60 ft out of it?
Slip the converter?
Sidestep the brake pedal?
Unmash the gas?
Powershift the gear lever?
My friend...in all honesty....no BS intended at all....saying what you did speaks volumes about what you DON'T know about drag racing, and makes you sound like a complete and total idiot. I know you aren't - I've read your posts and you're not dumb - but you really ought to stay in your lane.
This isn't your lane.

The car comes with a blower that most would say is not worth crap and a price that out performs the cars performance. By no means am I talking Ford down just being realistic. They have come out with a product that is selling and are making the most of it. They have also had some very nice cars that I always give recoginition to ie terminator, mach, 500 and so on. What gets me is that some people actually buy the hype of the new ford commercial Quote: The Mustang doesn't have any competition in the muscle car field. Just be real with me, if you had 50k to spend on a car in your hand right now what would it be ? The Roush Mustang???

Wait....maybe its about mashing a bit harder....or a bit slower....to get just the right "mash" on the pedal at just the right time!
it's all about how much gas you give it and when. i didn't do anything special at all. it's all timing.
Note: It is possible that the car in that video isn't yours. If that is the case (hopefully for you) - let me know, and I'll retract my statement.
i'm quite good at drag racing, especially for the very few times i run my car hard.
Please tell us.
again, you don't know what it's like driving the car. until you drive the same car and do better, your opinion has no merit.
Classic.
Say....weren't you saying something earlier about having "every right to say whatever i want" about over-rated cars and such, even though you haven't owned any of them, raced any of them, or even driven any of them? Given this true and accurate statement, one must thus infer that you believe your opinion has merit? Correct? And if that is the case, should not my opinion have merit too, even if I've never driven a slug like your car (you know, the one you want to be slow)?
Bueller?
Remember what I said in my last post about you not being dumb? Silly me for assuming.
BTW....earlier in this thread, you said "i couldn't care less what i run, and i couldn't care less that i ran a 13.6 @ 105 stock with the slowest LS1 f-body made." If you "couldn't care less", why are you trying to convince people that your such a good drag racer?
Have a great evening.
