I get sick of posting these, but new Mustang GT
yeah I beat another one in my '90 TurboII, running only 5.5lbs of boost.. isn't this sick? a brand new $20,000+ car loses to a 12 year old car that's not even running at its full potential.

They just don't know the power of the Rotary....nice KILL!!!

haha nice kill...i raced a gt with gears, intake and full exhaust on a hot day and still pulled from it....he said he ran like 13.5 at the track...i dont know maybe bs because i dont think my TII is that quick, but it was from a roll so that helped me out.

it was kinda funny, I was bored on I75 and got off one exit early to look for a race, and as I get off the exit, I see him driving by.. so I speed up and get right next to him, look over and rev, he doesn't do anything, so I go up ahead, then he follows and gets behind me at the light (there was someone in the other lane unfortuantely).
So I speed up a bit from the light to let him get over, keep it in first, see him get over, wait a second and nail it, pull away from him, he's trying to keep up, 2nd, pull away, 3rd go to about 75 and I'm still pulling, give up... so I slow down and he goes by and slows down..then I get back up by him around 60, he punches it again and gets a jump, I'm behind his back bumper, and I reel him in by the end of 3rd and shift into 4th up to about 95/100 to let him know for sure that I was ahead and slowed down. Then I see another light ahead, and he musta seen it too, because he all of a sudden slammed on his brakes and turned left on a side street before the light, almost careening off the road in the process. Whether he was trying to avoid seeing me at a light, I dunno. |

Nice kill.
I have raced OMG....8 or 9 Mustangs at the track in the 1/4. Let me see ... 2 67's (same driver/car each time) 3 5.0's (different 5.0's) 5 99 + GT's I have yet to lose. Its really boring racing mutangs cause you know the result before hand. David |

low blow. ha ha

awesome... :rofl:

a 95 mustang GT busted 2 ricer flybys on me today. I caught up to him though both times just to stay next to him. When I ask for a fair race, he said no and continued the fly-bys. FUCKEN RICERS! :)

is that 5.5psi on a stock turbo cause if so then B.S. cause i dont like mustangs but i also know that a "new gt" will beat a t2 only running 5.5psi on stock turbo cause i doubt you are going to drop over a full second off of your time without increasing boost and also he may not have been racing or there could have been other things like traction control i know it sound like its not much but you would not believe how much slower they run with traction control on
my boy has a mach 1 and he raced my other friend with a gt the mach one had his t.c. on and lost by two or three cars then turned it off and won by three or four cars so it is a huge diff |

Nice kill to the original poster! |

yeah dude, right now i'm on an upgraded turbo but the wastegate spring was replaced so it hits a steady 4 psi hahaha, i don't have a controller yet and i would never be able to pull a GT.

my boy has a mach 1 and he raced my other friend with a gt the mach one had his t.c. on and lost by two or three cars then turned it off and won by three or four cars so it is a huge diff First off... HOLY THREAD RESURRECTION BATMAN!!!! Second off, do you want to see the timeslip for the car? http://home.comcast.net/~mdeminico/timeslip.gif And there were two others that day that were right about the same time (one actually had a higher trap speed). Listen, the car had (I sold it years ago) a full custom catback exhaust (it was a ghetto piece of crap too), and it ran a verified 5.5 lbs boost maximum, except at extremely high speeds (like 4th gear pulls over 110 mph). I verified it with a mechanical gauge, and with a diagnostic vacuum/boost gauge (the ones that you don't mount in a car, you just hook it up while it's idling or on a dyno). I had it dynoed on a mustang dyno (which reads lower than a dynojet) and it came back at like 193 rwhp. |
So a TII can make more power by lowering boost??? :squint:
