I'm sorry Mustang information on a Camaro website is not readily available for you. Your name calling is not necessary nor called for. It's not work for me. I volunteered to be a Mod'; I never complained except for seeing thread after thread of the same bloody information. What - you want specs'? Go to Ford's website and build yourself a Mustang. You want performance data? Go to a Ford/Mustang forum and I'm sure you'll find out a lot of great information too. I know that we have a few great contributing members here that drive Mustangs, and I have to utmost respect for those individuals. As far as me being smart - I never claimed to be. What would be easier than merging a new Mustang thread into an existing one? And, not that it matters to you, but I haven't merged every Mustang thread into this one. There are at least a few that I haven't in this Section because they had a different angle to the, like the Livernois thread with the Taurus and GT; that was a different twist. I'm sorry to have disappointed you. Maybe I should resign...

First of all, I never called you a name, I told you you were being immature which is very true as evidenced by your sarcasm and cute little crying faces instead of responding like an adult. I voiced my opinion on your actions. Second, this is the OTHER VEHICLES SUB-FORUM. Why the hell would you not want information about the Camaro's lead competitor readily available in this sub-forum? Why not just delete the whole section if that's the case? Unless I am missing the point of this sub-forum, it is to provide information about OTHER CARS to the Camaro owners. Please enlighten me on which car you think ought to be discussed in here more than the Mustang. I have seen multiple Camaro owners say something negative about this setup and only 4-5 people have even posted in it so far other than the merged posts. In fact, 305 and Dakota kid are the only other two people that have voiced an issue with this thread and they both own camaros! I've also been in the market for one until recently deciding to move to an area where I wouldn't be able to drive it. Besides that, the sticky was made by the ADMIN because he thought it would work. Think of this logically. How does this help this sub-forum in any way? It doesn't.

If he says its great, its great. Having met him and talked cars for a bit I take his word over any car magazine or retarded website review (including Challengertalk, Camaro5 and TheMustangSource).

I will second that.

I have a little idea as to why there might be some conflict/hard feelings. In other automotive forums, the general automotive is usually a quick "oh thats ugly, oh thats hot, oh that's a stupid car, omg drule" type atmosphere. Here...on Camaro5....we have Mustang drivers literally trying to SELL the Mustang; doing just about everything in their power to include it in conversations, etc. The hostility might stem from the phrase "No Solicitations"

What are you talking about? Half the mustang threads in this sub-forum are started by camaro owners. Do you not want to know anything about your lead competitor other than saying it's ugly? If you think you're speaking for the whole forum when you say that, why don't you talk to THEM about it. NHRA stocker seems to be interested in the info, along with 350, dakota kid and toooonns of other camaro5 members. Why do you think the threads all end up 10 pages long? Nobody is trying to sell mustangs. How would that benefit us in any way? I have never even started a single mustang thread, they are just everywhere here because that's what happens when you have a lead competitor; people want to know what they're up against. Look at ls1tech, mustangforums, svtp, etc. Oh well, I'm not going to argue it with you anymore. You guys are going to see the unfavorable results of having it set up this way.

EXCUSE ME DUDE, WTF IS YOUR PROBLEM - I haven't said anything between you and me in this forum about any of that crap- I'm trying to bridge the understanding -- As in step back and take a look of how some people might see it. Look at it from a different perspective.

edit: and yes...some people do try to sell the mustang...simply presenting information requires no in depth reply

[8cd03gro]

I don't mean to attack you. It just seems that the same things are being reposted like crazy in this sub-forum and all over the forum over and over again, and when we finally created a logical, organized solution, it gets deleted and this ridiculous thread is created.

To who ever was the one running him at the track, did he have full interior and everything. I just dont see that car at that power level and weight pulling 115mph. Any videos of it?

That will really stop all the same questions and news from coming up over and over again . This thread will be 60 pages long and totally useless in a matter of weeks. Oh well, if this is the way you guys want to do it, this is the way it will be done I guess. Who's idea was this? Did you just do this by yourself? The admin and other moderators seemed to support the other idea considering they helped me to make it... I guess I just think organization and logic will help reduce the clutter better than random, disorderly posts in one massive thread.

But, your stubborn blindness in making this thread is just simply not going to solve the problem. Nobody is going to be able to find anything in here and they're just going to continue to post questions and news about the mustang in the other vehicles sub-forum because they won't be able to tell if it's a re-post. Good job, you've single handedly ruined the solution to the problem in this section and now you're acting like a jackass 13 year old about it when I'm trying to discuss with you why this isn't going to work. You're just making more work for yourself. Did you even look at the sticky and realize how much easier it would have made this for you or did you do what I think you did and just come in and merge every thread with the word mustang in it? It doesn't take a genius to see this is not going to help anything.

Let me ask you a question - What happens when somebody here is wondering what kind of track times the mustang runs? Do you really think they're going to look through 40 pages of this thread? Or will they just make another thread asking how the camaro will fare against it, while cluttering up this sub-forum even more? The sticky fixed that problem. This obviously does not. I'll ask this again, was this just your doing or did all of you mods decide on this? The admin and other moderators discussed the sticky with me and supported it, so I would be very surprised if they supported this.

No matter what we try to do, every Mustang thread ends up the same way.
10-40 pages of useless posts.

What makes you think that making a sticky thread will be any different?
I'm sorry, but we have other things to worry about on this site other than making sure a Mustang thread stays organized and all the information is accurate.
In my personal opinion it is best to just handle all mustang threads the way we have been handling them before. Kepp them all in one place untill they become nothing but pointless bickering and then close them.
Frankly, i don't care if our Mustang information is in anyway accurate. If I want to get information on the Mustang, I will go and read about it elswhere other than a Camaro forum. (yes I actually go somewhere else other than here).
Sorry for the inconvenianceand not catering to the Mustang crowd.

Lastly, I will ask you once and only once to be respectful to everyone on this site. Especially our moderators. If you continue to be disrespectful, you will not last very long here.

It had a full interior.I have no idea if the car was tuned or not but him making a living tuning mustangs.In my opinion for him to tune it then run a 12.7 at 115 "stock" would be a stupid buisness decision.

This is what I wrote in a different thread:
"I just looked at the time slip when I ran him,His trap speed was 114.3 mph,A lot of people say Sacramento raceway's trap speed timers are a few mph fast so I wouldnt put to much into his mph".

and this:
"A good friend of mine has an 8 second nova,He said he staps 4-6 mph faster with the same e.t. at Sac. compaired to Infineon."

It's really good of Ford to make so many small changes to the '10 because it looks like the '11 is an absolute jewel. It'd kinda' make me a little upset with so many improvements, after only a year, to a fresh (not new) model. It makes me wonder if Ford just rushed the '10 so there'd be a fresh face to face Camaro. Regardless, they've done some great things. That 5.0 is bad@$$, though.

I've said for a while that the new Mustang, GT form or the Shelby is a bad a** car.

But I still think it looks like a donkey in the front. I don't like it. jmo
