i understand your point, but traction isnt much better for a built RWD.  even with my DRs, i can lay 150 feet of stripes from a dig on the street.

my point about the mustangs is that you guys made it out to sound like a 14 second run is an expectable run from a new mustang GT, and thats only setting people up to get their feelings hurt.

id like his trap speed, and 60' time.  I dont know that Im doubting you so much as Im doubting the worlds slowest new GT...

Ive run at 1500' elevation with 95% humidity, and ive still run in the 12.80s...what is the elevation at the track?  If you give me the track name,or even the city, I have a list of track elevations somewhere.

We have guys at MF in Denver who are running better than 14s with a GT.  Its not a matter of being a "professional driver", its a matter of being a competent driver.  Unless he is at an incredible elevation, he shoudl return his car to the dealership, as something is severely wrong with it, and that is probably the worst time Ive heard of coming from an 05 and newer GT.  Are you sure that it isnt a 4.0L? IHE on a 4.0L would put the car in the mid to low 14s, from what ive seen..as i know a few modded 4.0L mustang owners.  Actually, I will be running next month at an event sponsored by a 4.0L mustang club, so I should have good video of stock-to-heavily modded V6 mustangs on the track.


Sounds like a good time.  Where is it located at?

ohio..i havent mentioned it on MF, because its a "private event", and ive been invited by a few people who i think are inviting me in order to call me out.  i think that they believe me to be making up my track times.  its actually sponsored by a rival forum of MF, one that created a real problem when created.  I wouldnt be a shade surprised if someone tries to start trouble with me. Im going into it, half expecting an ambush.

Honda boys are always so entertaining. I like all cars, I am an enthusiast, but I know RWD V-8 is GOD.
