Assuming pure stock:

Mitsu GT VR4 - Driver's race
C5 Vette, auto - Close, but the Vette should win.
C5 Vette, manual - Stay away
C6 Vette, manual - Stay away
Any C5 vette stay away....
The autos help eliminate any potential driver error....

I have raced many of these cars.. and here is what i got.


#1 yes you can eat it.
#2 yes you can barbequ it.
#3 yes you can pick yourteeth with it
#4 yes you can smoke it
#4 Idont know... i think NO
#5 yes you can fart them
#6 umm... its a close race... from a stop he jumps but from a roll its a drivers race.
#7 200,2001 i dont think so but under i think yeah
#8 yes you can **** them \( even the lt1 z28 i have a video and i will post it soon)
#9 havent raced them transams
#10 porshces are german g@y frogs... they all look the same, But i have raced a 2002 carrera 4 and smoked it.
Numbers 5 and 10 are complete [sm=bs.gif]. How dare you tell this guy that stock for stock you beat a 3200lb 2002 Carrera 4S? 3.6-liter, 320-horsepower normally aspirated 911 Carrera engine with all-wheel drive chassis, body design and feature content of the 911 Turbo.

I guess you think he can beat the base 350hp Vette which weighs about 3200lbs also. It just doesnt add up.

Driver error with the auto C5's is not eliminated. An inexperienced driver can be bog down the launch with T/C on, or can excessively spin the tires with T/C off.
Also, auto C5's have a taller gear than manuals, pure stock manuals are rated 0-60 in 4.8 and the 1/4 in 13.3, and so pure stock autos will be a tad slower, which will be close to a manual 05/06 Mustang GT.
I've had only one race so far against an auto C5 with my manual 05 Mustang GT(pure stock at the time). I jumped him off the line, and I was able to maintain a 1/2 car length lead.

My car is obviously not stock, but I mudered my friends 05 GT...
Ya, the 65/66 are pretty light. And the 289 is a running sucker when you start to tear into it.

Actualy the F-bodies with LS1's can do 13.3 in the 1/4. The Vettes are more so around the 13s or high 12s stock. That is no where near a stock GT capabilities. To honest, with my expieriences the Vettes perform better with the T/C off. There is not significant wheel spin when you launch hard. I think your story, auto or not is BS.

Unless The c5 driver is really bad the c5 should be able to take a gt, though stock for stock its not a rape but win for the c5 9 out of 10 times, this of course assuming stock for stock...

I think C5 auto vs Gt Manual is a respectable win for the C5. A C5 manual vs GT manual is a rape for the C5. Ive seen it to many times.
