My nephew got a 2006 Mustang GT and he's already started trash talking. This question has probably already, but who would win in the 1/4 mile.

He's stock(manual) and my mods are below(L99).

you can stall and take off in third and still eat it

i had too but my friend has an 06 gt and we switched cars. when he came out of the cars he said "i honestly thought that when i bought this car i would stand a chance". so that will answer your question. haha

JEFF75645 · 08-18-2012, 05:22 PM

He's a young guy and just excited about his new purchase. I guess.

Unless he trees the heck out of you and your reaction time is really, really, really bad you will destroy him with little effort.

Challenge him in reverse, your car that is. I bet you will still win.

God I love this forum.

I'm glad Ford stepped up and put a proper engine in the mustang. Up unitl recently I knew almost nothing about engine specks and performance from pony cars. I live in a small town and there are a few 09 and younger stangs running around that I used to think would be pure nastiness on a track (stock of course). It also makes chevy want to improve their own engines to keep up. Don't want to turn this into another ford vs. chevy thread but glad I went with the camaro....with the exception that a 2013 GT had a lot of nice electronic gadgets (if you opt to add them to the standard GT package that is).

LimaCharlie · 08-19-2012, 01:02 AM

If he knows how to drive, he might be able to cut a better 60 ft. than you. He has no chance after that though. You will beat him in the 1/8 mile and continue to pull away from him all the way up to the 1/4 mile.

scrming · 08-19-2012, 06:35 AM

I have seen PLENTY of 05-09 Mustang GT's run! In stock form, with typical driver they are really more like a low 14 second car.... especially if you are talking street tires and a test and tune day.

dekan513 · 08-19-2012, 10:23 AM

i raced one with a k.b supercharger and bolt ons and mine just tune and exhaust and intake and where were super close. so u should kill one unless modded

JEFF75645 · 08-19-2012, 08:24 PM

I talked to my nephew today and he wants me to help him mod his Mustang. I told him that I'd be glad to. Rather see him in this car than that damned crotch rocket.

very true since i left cali to come back home to ohio its gotten so bad. Everyone i see cant ride at all and only care about the straights. Its pathetic, when i ask where the good twisties are and they ask me why i would go there
