1986 GT hands down...Some of those suckers bone stock was hitting 14.6 when the best time put down by the 225 horsepower 1987 and up version was 14.7. Despite having 25 less horsepower they were the quickest. I can send you the link if you'd like.

one hp doesnt just matter in a race. its hp to weight ratio.
99 svt cobra 13.62 @ 105.2
01 bullit13.59 @ 102.4
mustang mach 13.19 @ 106.7

this is out of 5.0 mustangaug. 2003
