Hey all, I was hoping to get an honest, unbiased opinion on who is going to win a race between myself (GTP) and a guy with a modded '00 Stang GT 5-speed. We'll be racing in a few weeks from a 25 roll up to around 100 or so. Him:

Best Track Times: 14.088 @ 97.94 (Before Lots of the Below Mods)

Dyno Numbers : 246 HP / 291 TQ

- Intake Spacer
- P&P Intake Plenum
- FMS 70mm Throttle Body
- C&L TrueFlow Inlet Pipe
- C&L 80mm MAF
- 9" K&N Filter
- Steeda Underdrive Pullies
- MAC O/R H-pipe
- MAC Flowpath Exhaust
- Pro5.0 Shifter w/ Steeda TriAx Handle

Me: 2001 GTP with basic mods running pretty consistent 13.5's at 102-103 with a halfway decent launch. Best time so far 13.49 @ 103.51 on a 2.1 sec. 60' in 45 degree weather. Never been to a dyno, but would guess I'm around 260hp/330tq.

Main reason I'm asking is b/c I don't have a clue what his above mods will do for him in the 1/4. Assuming his PB of 14.088 was bone stock, what would he likely run now? Who do you think will win the race?
Keep it friendly please. We're just running for fun. We both have respect for each other's cars.

Since your going at a roll, he proably has the advantage since the rwd does'nt have to launch. But it should be a good race.

I'm thinking going from a roll will benefit both of you seeing your 60' time. Since you should still be running lower ET's I think you have the advantage from a roll. He's not modded enough to run lower 13's. What mods did he have to run 14 @ 98? Looks like a decent launch judging by ET and MPH.

Oh yea, BTW, of course mine is an automatic so I'll have it manually in 1st gear when we start and will have to do nothing but stomp it down and be sure to bump it up to 2nd by the time I reach 50 mph.

DavesGTP

I think he was stock or very near stock when he made that run, but am not positive.

98LS1

Eh, should be decently close, but judging by your 60' and knowing that you're going from a roll, you'll win.

DavesGTP

That's kinda the feeling I had, but wasn't positive b/c I don't know how much those mods would help him. We'll get it on video. I'll try to remember to report back the results. BTW, your avitar is HILARIOUS!

Thanks, can't wait to see the vid.

From a roll, I'll put my money on the GTP.

From a light, providing traction I'd put my money on the GT.

Since you stated a MODDED stang I'd have to say the GT will win. But if the GT is stock and you are running a 13.5 quarter mile at the track I bet you'll get him easy.

your GTP vs a stock GT, the GTP

your GTP vs a modded GT, drivers race.
