I put pink slips down that you cannot outrun me in reverse.

So you have a CAI, Headers and an exhaust.  I am not sure if you will be taking me all day long.  But since this is the internet, there really is no way of telling

Well the short shifter helps too, because the stick and spacing of throws in your car is extemely terrible.  You want a road course i'd eat you all day, and that goes without saying.  My car will outhandle your car on most any roadtrack.  I'm also at a mid fifteen right now, and thats with 18's.  When I get the fifteens and a drop i'll be in the low fifteens as I know people there with the same mods as me and that rim size (so then it's just down to driver).  I know stock your car is a mid to low sixteen second car.  I also know that its one of the worst cars when it comes to power to weight ratio, and you have to do a hella lot of bolt ons to make up that deficit.  Not downing your car, but V6 stangs are the dumbest way to go if you want speed.  Even a GT is ****ty with fords 4.6, but its even worse if you get a V6 for speed.  None the less, road course (with me driving) owned, and in the quarter, well same.

I do agree with you that you would have me on a circuit course.  The older sn95 years (94-04) aren't that hot for that kindof racing.  The new S197's are pretty good for the circuit races now.  Also, the v6's weight distribution is pretty close to 50/50 front and back.  You are incorrect about my trim times though.  A 5spd coupe 99-04 are mid 15 second cars.  So at a strip it would then pretty much be a drivers race.  If its an auto though, there is about .5 second loss due to horrible ford autos!!!  I think it would be a fun race.  You dont live close to northern AL do you??

Stock, a GT your year runs what about a 14.8 maybe a 14.6......theres no way you're running a mid fiteen and you're not even a full second away from the V8 model mustang.
