modded camaro vs stock 2010 mustang gt

You'd be surprised.

Well if were talking about the 315 hp 2010 mustang GT STOCK. And a V6 with full exhaust, tune, and intake, plus gears. I wouldn't be surprised in them both being close in a race. Just to better the camaro he needs to get down to some 19" wheels too. Otherwise I call this a pretty good race. As said before this could easily be a drivers race. We need a race from the OP!

A typical time for a mustang gt is a 13.4 to 13.5 (magazine times, not what you guys have "seen" at the track) and a camaro v-6 is 14.3-14.4 (some 14.2 have been recorded).


To clarify, this was stock for stock.

I ran 14.1 in my V6 manual BONE STOCK and this is my first stick car, only 20,000 miles so far, mostly highway.

I have friends who are much better drivers and trust me when I tell you they could pull at least a 14.0 out of my car.

GT AVG time is 13.5, V6 manual with an avg driver like myself will do low 14s.

And my 14.1 was with the boat anchor 20s, if all I did was get light 18s and some good rubber Ill run 13.7 all day.

Like I said before, but you skipped over because you like to be hard headed, a modded V6 manual Vs a STOCK GT is a DRIVERS race!

This is from the V6 1/4 mile fast list:
1. 13.420 @ 103.22 - ROD1 - A6 - (DRs/Skinnies, Injen CAI, ARH Longtubes/High Flow Cats, SS Axle Back, Trifecta Tune)

OP's car has all similar mods but the tires (tires on above car acted like he had lower gears as well).

On top of all the advocating I've done here for the Camaro, I still think the GT has the edge...as it should...but don't kid yourselves, it could be close.

But yeah, I'd love to see what 21"rims versus 18s or 19s will do to a 1/4 mile time.

And a manual tranny! I havent seen any auto stock v6ers run near what I did and others have claimed with a manual.

Ignore that troll.

Never waste time arguing with a guy who knows 100,000 people with 9 second daily driven cars.

Good launch will make a big difference. But I've heard the stock manual transmission is really only good for one or two passes before it will start to hurt your 1/4 mile times. It just doesn't seem to last.

Idk my 14.3/14.1 with correction was my 4th pass of the day.

Launch is definitely key though Ill agree.

OP, launch your car at about 3,000 rpms. Obviously dont dump it. Pretty much right when you start moving is the time to dump it. I managed to pull a 2.0 60' which helped A LOT.

14.1 is an awesome time man, definitely something to be proud of. You running a 14.1 is like a 2010 gt running a 13.3. Can't compare your hero run to an average time (that is being hard headed btw).

Again, I'm not ripping on the camaro v-6, really, it's a stout car. I just seem to provide the pragmatic and factual information that you guys can't seem to grasp.

Worth noting, the differences in our arguments (ie, times for the runs) is really not that big, but no one has really countered the fact that the Mustang GT is 9-10 tenths quicker, which would require this v-6 to provide 90-100 hp more to keep up.

Like I said Ive been driving stick for a mere 20,000 miles, mostly highway. Im an average stick driver Id say, my 14.1 is no hero run imo. Someone who has been driving stick longer than me and has skill should run 14.0s.

Now I don't know for sure, isn't 14.1 the fastest time run in a 2010 v-6? or have they hit 14.0 flat? Either way, average time for both magazine drivers and average joe is 14.3-14.4, which makes sense as that's about 9-10 tenths slower then a 2010 gt.
