Default 2013 Mustang at the track? 14 seconds?

Guys, been taking some film at the track... this Mustang which my buddies believed to be a 2013 Mustang Shelby GT500 ran 14s. Let me know what you think it actually is.

That's not even a year 2010+.... Hell my V6 could get under 14 seconds... Seemed like a rough couple of shifts there anyways.

Yeah, that back end is from a pre-2010 Mustang.

Definitely not a 2013 - it is a 2005-09 model year.

Maybe it is my computer speakers, but I didn't hear the blower whine. If it doesn't have a blower then it isn't a GT500.

Looks like a 2007ish GT500...it does have the blower whine.

You would be surprised that a pass like that compared to that car's potential happens often. Couple factors could be bad traction, slow shifts, humidity/weather conditions, the track's elevation (higher up means less air density).

I see the youtube morons have also viewed your video. Lol.

hm..

We went to Cecil county drag strip the other night and saw this real nice Shelby GT500 Mustang run 14s multiple times. Who spends 60k on a car and embarrasses themselves by running a 14 at the track? Car or driver error? I do really love this car and love the color red with the stripe!
Whoever uploaded the video with this description should take a step back and STFU and think.

lol I know. I am just starting to get into YouTube. They are trashing me for this post. Even though it may not be a 2013, he should have ran better then 14.16 all night. I will post another this week when I get my Mustang back. My buddy has a GTO and wants to run a grudge match for 500 dollars. I need some advice.... I do not want to get clobbered

Well do you know what's under his hood? Cuz whoever made the video (you?) couldn't tell the difference between an 05-09 GT500 and a 2013 GT500......2013 SCREAMS!! Got its sexual....Anyways. I say race for fun/bragging rights. Not $500....you're buddies xD

Why a "grudge match"?

Why $500.00"?

What are we NOT hearing?
