Exactly, it's a good thing we're in the street racing forum and he took it up to 130 or else it may have been close.

 

When i first got my SS about a month ago i took an o4 mach1 m5 from a 20. He jumped me but i passed him and held a car length to 130. All i had at that time was the lid and CME that came on the car from slp. He was the closest race i have had w/ a mustang so far. I guess i have just picked the right ones. I call them out with a lil rev., then spank them on the street. lol . So far i have not been let down.

 

Oh BTW, I had 3/4 tank of gas, my wife and some groceries in my car. He was alone.

 

Nice kill..

Dave you should stop drinkin the crazy coolaid and step into reality. They are a close race from a dig with equal drivers. PERIOD!

Also, to the guy who's bro has the mach. What track are ya'll at cause those stock times are slow for both of your cars. I went 13.2 at 109 in a intake, catback, 5 speed Mach. (Stock tires were sort of bald so traction was an issue)

 

You keep saying that, but these threads, videos, and my personal experience all say otherwise.

BTW: It's "Kool-Aid."

Look I don't drink the ****, the point was you will go on believing what you like true or not, but the fact is your selective hearing makes you look more retarded than we all know you are.

As far as your personal experience goes, that all means nothing once you factor in your terrible outlook on the subject, which could be considered negative at best.

What did your car run with only a lid and catback btw?

If you were talking to me, it ran a 8.90 @ 80.74 w/a 2.04 60ft. I went last week in warmer temps and got 8.76 @83.34 w/a 2.08 60ft. The track is not the greatest.

 

No I was talking to SVOdave, but you can see what I mean by the times you posted.

I went 8.6 in my stock 01 GT (1.90 60') I trapped a very slow 100mph in the 1/4. Imagine what I would have done with a car trapping 106-07. To say that a mach can't run similar times to an LS1 would be stupid.

 

Do we have an :applause: smilie? We need one. Good post

 

8.6 in a stock 01, that is serious bullshit. 2 valves are slower than your average 4-door v6 family sedan.

 

It was as fast as your car is ugly, but looks just like speed is in the eye of the beholder. 13.50 with a set of nittos showing white stripes isn't bad in my book.

 

Been in my sig for 2 yrs. No catback. All season radials.

 

Not so much stupid as it would be accurate. LS1s trap faster than 106-107 all the time. Imagine that. And your "white-striped" Nittos were doing pretty good if you managed a 1.9 60' in a stock GT.

Lets cut the crap shall we?

Generally speaking....

Machs all weigh pretty much the same. They are all geared the same. If every Camaro made came as M6 hardtops and equippped with the 3.42s, the Camaro would win every time. All these Machs claiming it's "a drivers race" are the ones who caught an auto from a roll, pulled a fully optioned vert, just came across a bad driver, etc. There's just too many variables with the F-bodys. If you pull a Mach, you only need to know auto or 5 spd. and that's pretty obvious.

At the track however, the Machs have that steep gearing and a rear end that wont explode which is a HUGE advantage. I remember launching very cautiously when I went to the track so it would live another day.

Anyway, since I drive on the street everyday, I'd much rather have the advantage there. And everytime I race a Mach it reminds me that I do.

 

hmmmmm never realized this site had so many mustang owners registered, 2 bad most of them don't really post in any tech threads and just troll around the street racing section ready to pop up and defend the mustang if any lsx car beats it, mustang owners are some of the most weird insecure people ive ever met.

 

my car cld pull alot better times with DRs, i can only launch at 1400 w/o breaking the tires. maybe i will run across another mach1 soon.

 

Well, you have an intake and a catback so that helps some. As well as the fact that this was in California with 91 octane timing reducing fuel. The track was California Speedway in Fontana. The DA that day was 2,398'.

 

I only registered here to reply to Omega Doom.

I probably have nothing to contribute to the tech threads because I don't know a thing about the LSx motors. I just know that I like to race and I don't care what I race against. I enjoy it for the rush and excitement win or lose. I choose to do this at the track so I don't care if my car can't pull on a LS1 at 130mph. Actually, now with my 4.56's, I can't go over 120mph in 4th gear anyways

 

not all of them. 2 of my buddies have ran 8.6's and 8.7's in there GT's with nothing but a cat back and gear change on stock tires.

 

Pot Meet Kettle!!!

 

I guess you need to race me then and get drug on the street, track or where ever.
