You're lucky that years V-tech wasn't as potent as later years V-tech. Otherwise he woulda smoked you, son.

Wow... there are getting to be too many retards in this world. I keep getting more and more evidence to back up my theory that people are getting less intelligent as time passes (watch the movie "Idiocracy"). I had a GS-R, and it ran a BEST time of 14.97, and a BEST trap speed of 93.98mph. That's not gonna be anywhere close to even the worst driver in an LS1 car. It was fun picking on 94-98 Mustang GTs and V6 F-bodies, but that was about the extent of it. Way to put him in his place

You were "picking on" 94-98 Mustang GT's running a 15 second 1/4??

A 5.0 is faster than that bone stock...

If I remember correctly they ran 14.5-14.9 in tests by magazines back them. I know magazines aren't the best info but an average guy in a 5.0 Stang that sounds close. Put a good driver and the times would likely improve by as much as 3 or 4 tenths but still they are mid 14's. The 4.6 was after 96 (I think) and they weren't much better if at all.

The vast majority of the 94-98 Mustang GTs were ~180rwhp "monsters" with 3.08 gearing. I only raced one from a stop one time ('95 GT 5spd, and I had a passenger), and beat him by 2 cars up to 90mph. The others were from various 50-60mph rolls. And considering most SN95 GTs trap 90-93mph, it shouldn't be surprising that I beat them. Never "stomped" any, but never lost to one either

Yep . Now of course there were exceptions like the '95 GTS (GT w/ V6 equipment for lighter weight), the 96-98 248a cars (renamed GTS), and the '98 GT I had... mine was one of the few late-year 5spd cars that came with 3.27s instead of 3.08s. But as a rule, they are low 15s cars.

The 94+GTs were soo damn ugly, i personally think they are the ugliest body style of stang, excpet for maybe the early 80s and soem of the late 70s were pretty damn ugly too. In my opinion the early 70s mach 1s were the last good looking ones before the 99+ body styles. Which is why i dont like stangs, 30 years of ugly lol

IMHO the 94-98 Cobras are the best looking modern Mustangs... 2" drop+ 18" Saleens + full exhaust = . I actually HATED the '99s when they came out because I thought they ruined the car. It obviously grew on me, but I'd still love an SN95 Cobra.
