If you have to do a neutral drop to get your wheels to spin then there is probably something wrong with your mustang


Either that or you should be posting in the V6 section.

Well that was a dumbass comment since stock 99 and up V6s CAN break the tire (yes I said TIRE) loose without doing a neutral drop. And a brakestand is not very hard either. But if you meant because mostly teenagers post there, then yes you are correct...

^^^the two of you are wrong, in the dead heat of the summer even the gt wont break the tires loose from a stop if you just hit the gas, you guys should know, all three of us live in hot *** places

BUT in the winter, they'll stay loose as long as you want them to

no, theres nothing wrong with my mustang
