I don't care if you agree with the facts or what happened that night, you weren't there.

He has owned his car for 50,000 miles and has owned it almost 3 years. He saw some of the comments on here, made him laugh. He shifted into 5th doing the 12.7 @ 111 in Alabama too by the way.
Your friend has a 2012 5.0 right?

Did the 2012's come out before the 2011's did in 2010?

BOOM!

I assumed you could do basic math. I said almost 3 years, use your common sense as to what year it is.

Sorry dude, but, I suggest avoid being a smartass.

Here you are, trying to educate Mustang and Camaro owners when you don't own one, but a buddy of yours does.

Tell your friend he needs to learn how to drive. LMFAO at shifting into 5th with a Stock 5.0 by the end of the track.

Just to prove my point, it is April, 2013. 2011 5.0's were released late 2010, early 2011. The video you posted shows a 2012 5.0 in the title, which were released late 2011. Basic math suggests he has owned the car approx. 1-1.5 years, not nearly 3 years. That would suggest he got the car late 2009 to early 2010. 2010 + 3 = 2013..... Now, if he owned a 2011 5.0, I will agree that is has been nearly 3 years, provided he purchased it when they first hit the streets...

Maybe you should get some basic skills too. A G35/G37 is not a low 13 second car by ANY NORMAL means. It is a mid-high 14 Second car. It is not faster than an L99 or LS3 Camaro, 3V GT or a 5.0.

That's incorrect. 2011s hit the dealerships in March/April of 2010. My '11 was built in 6/10 and I bought it in 9/10. 2012s hit the dealerships in March/April of 2011, roughly the same time, one year later.

Still doesn't put a 2012 5.0 at 3 years of ago, not even close to it.

This was going off of memory, which was vague when typing this.

Maybe 2 years old at the latest.

It was a typo, I didn't publish those videos anyways(hence it even says "track pack" and that wasn't available 2011+; also a typo). It's a 2011 and he was one of the first buyers to get one in summer 2010, that's why I say almost 3 years.

Quit randomly mentioning Infiniti's, I don't understand your thought processing. I have never ran a 14 second clean pass the 3 times(combined 30-40 passes) or so I have been to the track this season, so you are wrong there anyways. The G37 coupe and vq35de G35 are, however, .2-.3 tenths slower.... This terminology may be beyond your understanding, but google may be your friend to help educate you. If my car is mid-high 14 second car, then your 3v is a low 15 second car stock. I have ran several mild bolt on 3v's and it's about even(I am .3-.4 tenths and 2 mph or so faster then friend's stock 2010 mustang gt auto). Next time I'm at the track I'll record the Mustang gt killing carnage just for you. You sound like stereotypical stuck up 4.6 owner that thinks they drive the fastest thing on the road simply because it has a v8.

Back on topic from your slight derailment of the thread. I also don't understand why it is so hard for you to understand he hits limiter in 4th about 10-20 feet before 1/4 mile marker and traps 104-105, that's a fact. Whether you agree or not I do not care. Nothing more that I say will help you understand.

Right, now you are even with a Bolt-on 3V. Dude, let me know when you wake up.

I am not a typical V8 owner. Of course, that is the first thing that people like you, being a know it all and cannot accept reality resort to. All V8 owners are stuck up assholes.

Have you ever seen me post that my car is fast? I can beat all of these cars, it's the fastest POS on the road? You won't find it because I don't think my car is fast, especially with today's standards. Faster than a Stock or even modded G35/G37? Most likely.

EVERY one of your threads and Videos is about how V8's are slow, and your G36/G37 beats all of them. Every V8 you race is driven by an amazing driver, yet, you still beat them with similar weight, less power. You and your car defy physics.

For the record - You know nothing of my car. Think I really care if you beat other Mustangs? More power to you. Never said your car was slow. If someone beats my car, my respect goes out to them. I don't have that much pride in my car and get butt-hurt when there is a faster car. You are always trying to prove to everyone here your car stands for something and is fast. There is nothing to prove dude.

Ever in Chicago, I'll run ya for shits and giggles and buy the first few rounds

Okay you are the one that even mentioned my car at post 45, so don't try and make me look like I'm the one who brought it up. You called it mid-High 14 second car when I do 13s @ 100+ on a constant basis. I defended myself and you try and make it look like I'm bragging about my car again. It's slow. Happy? Lol. I would like for you to point out where I said all v8 owners are assholes and my car is faster then all of them. Most of my friends have modified V8s that are much faster then me, I posted vids in Camaro ss vs the word of them.

Yes I am the about the same speed as, previously stated mild, bolt on 3v. Mostly manual on street tires; not by any means all 3vs, my friend ran 12.9 @ 108 in tune/gears/exhaust/tire 3v same night I posted the SS race.

Lol just annoying. I want to get 5.0 soon anyways after basic. You probably would put bus length on the G I remember reading somewhere about your stang LOL

All good bro. No hard feelings here.

My car is slow, despite being modded as such.

I hope to have a 5.0, SS or GT500 in my hands in the future. We'll see what happens.

Strong running G. I've always admired the cars as they are well built, decently priced and do have a lot of power/torque for a 6 Cylinder. They certainly surprise a lot of people especially being a sedan.

Yeah I'm not the only one who feels that is slow(for 5.0)! Lol he did 13.0 at 107 with a misfire and running 7 cylinders, me thinks the stealership lies about fixing coil pack.

He did 12.7 @ 111 on street tires in Alabama stock eh

There was stock auto 5.0 that did 12.8 @ 111 same night as him I can dig up the vid.
