mustangs just dont pull on the hwy for crap
so v6 mustangs can ? lol

i think you just gave him too big of a head start, which was good for him now he can go embarrass himself from a dig sometime and talk about he beat a GT on the highway with his CAI and Tornado fuel thingy....

as for the v6 handling a STOCK gt with just pullies and a chip,, i would def. have to see some proof befoer i believe that

you would need full bolt-ons. CAI, exhust, tune, TB w/ported intake, pullies, 4.10 gears and a t-lok and it could hang with non PI GTs deff, a PI would be a little harder though, you would probabaly have to swap out injectors as well.

I doubt he was modded; the GT's are dogs from high mph rolls. Hell i only pulled on a modified civic (dual fart launchers) 2 cars from 65-100

There was a 05 v6 racing a 99-04 V6, I just floored it and I acought them. They were only about 5 cars ahead tho. An AUTO MUSTANG only chance is really from a dig.

Daaaaaamn!!! Are you saying that a v6 can be modded with bolt ons to keep up with a GT???
My friend has an automatic V6 with headers, full exhaust, performance chip, cold air intake, and maybe one or two other mods (not exactly sure). Anyway, he can definitely hang with me - I'll still beat him but its been pretty damn close at times. I have a stock 99 GT (manual tranny).

I've seen some nice v6 mustangs around where I live, they're kinda fast, but not as fast as the GT's but there definately are a large amount of people who work on v6 stangs that can kill non PI GTs and PI GTs. I still respect them because they're mustangs, and I had a 95 v6 before I got my 98 GT. I thought my car was fast until I realized there were other models of mustangs out there. I'll never forget the time I reved my v6 at a Cobra....*sigh*

The fact that with your mods you think you pulled a 320+ hp car makes me think your on crack. My old 2002 v6 ran a 14.1. That could beat stock GT's

not to be a dick, ackuric, but I think you're full of ****. BS on you beating a WS6, and it's not that hard to race an auto, all you have to do is push the gas pedal.

**** yo couch *****. seriously though i have an auto, and i rolled on a ws-6 from 30mph to 70 this weekend, he gained a half a car length then lost it quick, dunno what happened there, but he was NOT happy, lil punk 18yr old. and I can race on the highway, kneegrow please, 3rd gear is a mad man in my car, to about 100-110, but you really can use a lil boost from 2nd gear if your only going 55-65, 2nd gear takes me to around 70 ish, and that will help third pick up. Although i may be on crack and i could be all wrong.
Please refrane from these types of racial comments on this board, ot is not acceptible here. BTW I call BS as well on your beating the WS6
