Re: Can i beat a 4.6L mustang???

im not feeling too confident now, maby i should just leave that race alone until i do some more mods to my car. because our other buddy has a 2010 camaro ss/rs 2, and iv played around with him in my car lol. i actually (believe it or not) took that camaro up to about 15 mph, then he was GONEEE haha. plus them new camaros have that trq management like no other, so thats prolly the only reason i can get out of the hole faster than that. but anyways like i was saying, my buddy with the stang iv been telling you about, raced my other buddy with that 2010 camaro and was only 4 or so car leangths behind him on a stop light to stop light race.

4 cars is a **** ton on a stop light-stop light race. From a roll he would be toast. Those ls3 cars are completely evil at high rpms. I saw a stocker run 12.8 at 111. No stock GT will touch that.

i know that a stock gt couldnt touch that car, but i was comparing on how much my car could hang with the new camaro as much as the mustang did. 4 leanghts is ALOT for a stop light race but if it was my car doing the same race agains the new camaro, it might be 5 leanghts lol. idk. so maby i should race my buddy in his new camaro to see how much more he pulls on me then when he raced the mustang. cuz i KNOW his car will smoke mine, so i aint worried about losing, im worried on how much i lose BY. that will tell me how close i will be against the stang.

hell, i might as well just go race the stang and get it over with. so this thread can finaly be at peace lol

Just race the stang. That camaro, if he has the 426 hp option, will make you look silly. At least if the stang messes up the launch you got a shot.

Re: Can i beat a 4.6L mustang???

Dont be nervous, just race him, stop thinking about lengths, and times, just do it, because its the only way you will know. ive told you my experience of beating just a longtube header straight pipe exhaust no muffler 03 gt mustang with 4:10 gears and it was a dead heat race down to the wire with my car.

Alright, I'm from Indiana... If you want light shed on the situation then I will be glad to assist you in this matter.
I have a 1991 5.0L Mustang GT and a 2004 Mustang GT. You can choose which you want to race
I will say this, I have raced 80's camaro in both the 91 and the 04.
From a dig and on the interstate.
the only car i fear.... is an LS1.
a 305ci is no problem to beat... in fact it's really not a race... the 4.6L's tq is less at lower rpm... but the gearing in the tranny makes up for that...
Traction control... LOL I turn mine off... if you know anything about racing... No one uses T/C to launch. It's the drivers job... not the computer... it will bog down the car too long, you would be better off to let the tires spin.

I've raced LT1's and I pull on them also, granted neither of my cars are 100% stock... but they are very lightly modded.

WS6 and LS1 are the only people i struggle with.

You will need to take that 305 out and drop a 350 in to do anything with that car in my honest opinion. which you stated you were going to work on.
Then i believe you will have yourself a powerful ride.
