RE: 89' 5.0 vs. 02' V6
hold up killer. i have a lot of respect for the fox body, but i'm simply answering a question with the facts i have. and the fact is that particular fox body in question has only a few bolt ons that can only give it so much of an advantage. of course if it has what you have then it's a whole different story, i would even bow to you just looking at your car my friend.

Dont sell the old fox short.
The new stangs are heavy and not really packing enough if you ask me.

hey mustangchic03, you first asked if a 2002 V6 will beat a 89 5.0. then later you called the guy stupid for running his 2002 GT against your boyfriends car. which is it, a GT or a V6 if it's a V6 you win if it's a GT you lose.

Cause I thought it was funny that this other guy thinks he has a chance. (He has never been to a track in his life, let alone race a car) Hence the LMAO in my original post. Just wondered what you all thought about it.
How do you think an 02 GT would fair against the 5.0?

There was also a Fox Body that I believe was turboed that burned out all the way up to 3rd and I mean a real burnout because you could see gray smoke all the way up the track and he was on Slicks by the way. He never heated up his tires once.
Turboed Integra that couldn't muster any better then a 10 flat in the 1/8th.
Like I said it's all about the driver and knowing your car. You can have all the mods or whatever you want but if you can't drive it's not really going to save your *** most likely.

Dont get me wrong, its easy as hell to mod a 5.0, im just talking stock vs stock here. I ran a 5spd 5.0 LX (re: the lighter ones) with only flowmasters and the K&N, and burned em down.
BTW, what is the wieght difference between a fox and a 99+? They were just saying the other day on here a 99 GT wieghed in at like 3300 pounds or so.

Its a Notch GT? or is it an LX? An LX with a set of gears and exhaust can beat a GT without too much trouble I have seen those run deep in the 13's with only two mods.
Either way vs the V6, hes gonna make $50!!!! WOOOT!
