Sounds like a good race.

Mach 1's still OWN the 05s in overall coolness though.

The new 05 GT is as fast as the 03-04 Mach 1's. From slowest to fastest here is what Ford wants to do with their vehicles of the same generation. This obviously doesn't apply to an 05 (newer generation Mustang GT) and an 04 Mach 1 (older generation special edition).

V6
GT
????? <----left open for special editions like Mach 1
Cobra

I believe Derf was referring to factory models only.

I thought about putting them and Rousch in there but they are really a co-parnter/venture with Ford. Ford doesn't make the Saleen or Rousch components.

hmm...
V6 + Stage 1 Rousch
Stage 2 Rousch
GT + V6 Stage 3 (maybe a little faster) + Stage 1 GT
Stage 2 GT + Ford Specialty Edit: (forgot that one)
Saleen N/A + Stage 3 GT (maybe a little faster)
Cobra
Saleen S/C

Look right? Don't know much about the Saleens...
