We drove it, I was very disapointed in the power it had, its rated at 305 hp, but my 85 GT with 300k feels about the same, but not nearly as smooth though.
I had a hard time breaking the tires loose even with traction control off, even then it would only spin a foot or so. It did sound good.

Uhh i dunno what to tell you. Its rated at 305 but theyll usually make about 325. Must be something wrong with that mach cuz itll blow your gt out of the water wihout even trying. I would think the newer dohc 4.6 would be smoother then an old 302. You had trouble breaking traction? You sure that wasnt a v6? I have troublw holding tracion even with the tc on.

Soft suspensions fool a lot of people, it's possible his suspension as gone crappy and his GT lifts and transfers weight like a boat, giving him the illusion that his 86 is quicker than teh Mach 1. [8D]
