Maybe they just feel like racing? I try every Ferrari I see, that doesn't mean I think I can beat them, quite the opposite in fact.

1. becuase they don't know the difference between a regular GT and a mach 1.
2. They don't read emblems.
3. they have the s197 disease

I have had a couple race me, but have handle them no problem then i get the thumbs down [>:]. Iwould hate to have the s197 disease, i feel like i am surround by it. go to the track the s197's don't talk to thenew edge's or the rest of the mustangs. They just talk to the s197's. same team fckrs!!!

just to put this out there underdrive pulleys arent good for a mach 1 motor, i dotn want to argue about ths but just wanted to let you know incase you didnt research it, look around on mach1registry.org just lookin out, many people had severe problems on there b/c of them

anyways back to the subject, only one new mustang ever tried to race me in my old mach 1 most of them didnt even know they made a mach 1 in 03-04

dude wtf is wrong wit 4.6 guys in general. we 5.0 guys dont wanna race eachother, we go after rice or chevy. u all are so concerned wit the 4v vs. 3v it aint even funny. oh and by the way, if driven properly a stock 05+ gt vs. a stock mach will be a drivers race. the torque curve on those things is unbelievable, they pull hard the whole way, dyno at like 280-290 torque to wheels at peak but usually around 270.

you know not to start a 5.0 vs 4.6 arguement but that is pretty biased making it sound like ALL us 4.6 guys are concerned about it, and that ALL you 5.0 guys are little mustang angels. i do agree with the power thing though, 05+ GT's aren't that much slower than a Mach1/cobra. And the reason why they think they can beat alot of other cars is that they got a pretty much brand new car that can beat probably like 70% of the normal sporty stock cars out there.
