BTW even in a V6 stang it would take a idiot to get beat by a car running mid 17's

Really a V6?
4.0 SOHC 12V V6
210hp@6500
240lb/ft@3500
Curb weight@3300lbs

That's 15.7lbs for every 1 hp not surprised it's running 17s
Nissan skyline GT-R has a 13lbs per hp and it runs 14s and its only 2940lbs

Ford Mustang LX 4.0l 0 to 60mph-6.9......Standing 1/4 mile-15.3 (C&D Feb 05)

It takes a really ****ty driver to make a car drop 2+ seconds of it's stock 1/4 mile times

Like every car in the world that has been around for more then 15 years, the engine's in them change. even a LX 4.0 Mustang could go from a SOHC to a DOHC and that would spank almost all N/A, non-spraying, non-swapped civics. BTW C&D '05? They were probably running the 05 Mustang, which is not a say 95 mustang that ran 17s.

Kind of off the wall, but I just heard a street bike race. Was perfect silence outside my house, then all of a sudden whaaaaam, whaaaam, know its a street bike when the shifts come like second or so.

On average I see most V6 stangs even the 95 models with automatics running atleast low 16's stock
