You said it best man. Thanks.

It all comes down to the driver in those situations.

Also... Those cars may be slower, but they're also dead quiet instead of roaring like most GTs. Yet we make barely enough speed to beat them.

Anyways, not trying to put a damper on it, Ijust think threads like this are pointless and completely miss the point of whats great about owning a Mustang.

[quote]ORIGINAL:Umm -- performace, appearance, shows, events, to be different, etc of course !! I never said I didn't do it but realize that a thread like this is asking to get bashed by some... so expect that as not everyone street races due to the surrounding dangers and lives at risk if something was to go wrong. Oh -- Congrats on your kills ... [quote]

I think nobody's mentioned also in trouble with the law. Around here they can confiscate your car and you go to jail, no defensive driving. Plus with a racing conviction on your record, try to get insurance.

HP aside - You either love the new retro 'stang or not. It's not all about performance.

Most people can't tell the difference between a V6 annd a GT - much less any mods. - Its all good.

Do Man...

cobalt SS = LOL
that thing is slower than the v6 stang
modded vs modded I still put my money on the Cobalt.
A V6 Mustang with stock engine + turbo can run 10's. How many real street Cobalts run 10's?

Back on subject. A 2007 BMW 550i is dead even with a Mustang GT. Dont ask how I know......


A stock block with just a turbo, you're not gonna see 10's, LOL. Much, much more work involved.

we all know street racing is not the brightest/safest thing, but why are we suddenly jumping on the guy now? not like we have a street/strip section full of 93% street races............it happens.

On the other shoe,there is nothing wrong racing at the race track,and the competition is alot more fun.In Ontario Can. they impound your car,Fine you up to $12,000.00,take your license for a month minimum.That is for getting caught at +30mph.Thought I would warn everyone if they ever come up this way.You don't have to be racing anyone,either.Lots of dead people from street racing.I lost count...
