Default I NEED YOUR INPUT!

Some imports have called me out so they can belittle the mustang name. The cars are a stock evo 8 and an srt-4 with (not sure what) but quite a few mods. My car is an 04 gt 5spd and my list of mods start with- bbk ud pullies, trickflow upper plenum, cai, c@l 85mm mam, 3:90 gears, mac off/road x-pipe with 40 series flowmasters, upr short throw shifter, stage 2 clutch,and a fidanza almn flywheel. My driving skills are pretty decent but i havn't been to the track in a while. Do you think i stand a chance? If any of you know were the SGMP track is in south Ga I would love for you to come back me up thursday night. Thanks Nxgt

Depending on the mods on the srt-4, it could be close.. They run with stock Gt's.

its hard to say w/o knowing what mods the srt4 has, but judging by your list, i bet you could take it. If both were stock it would be a close race. I know nothing about Evos so im not sure there...

BTW... How do you like the aluminum flywheel?? Hows normal driveability with it?

The only serious mod he has is the 3.90's

Yeah I have seen several stock races and It seems to be a drivers race. I raced a stock srt-4 the other day from a second gear roll and beat him pretty bad so i guess i'll just cross my fingers. thanks

It takes some getting used to but, I think it's a great upgrade. I could really tell in the throttle response department.

I think your gonna have your hands full with the evo from a dead stop. I think I saw a MT where they ran one to a 13.0, and your definatly not there yet.

Race him from a roll and you might have a shot. I was simply playing with one the last time I got a highway race with him. Never tried it from a stop but that AWD is hard to beat without slicks.

SRT's are quick, my buddies have them. You should be able to get the srt, be sure to race him from a stop. They wheel hop and cant hoook at all. Good luck.
