Another typical mustang owner...

Well I have a new co-worker at work who has a 99-04 model 4.6L Mustang GT 5speed.... Yesterday me and him left at the same time and I could tell by the way he was driving beside me he was wanting to race me from a roll around 50mph..I backed down of course cause my truck isnt setup like that...Well, this morning I asked him what he has all done to it... CAI, shorty headers, Xpipe, Exhaust, and gears.... Asked him if he has ever ran it at the track and he said he ran a 9.5' in the 1/4... ( I looked at him and was like uh huh..Cool!)..... I sure hope he meant that in the 1/8th because he sure looked like a dumbass when he said that to my face....

he probably meant the 1/8

that car should have no problem with a truck..... my 5.0 always gets attention from the ss trucks and hemis

Dont get me wrong, I like mustangs and stuff

but if he is running 9.5's in the 1/8th. I'm feeling kinda sorry for him. My truck is almost running close to that as heavy as my truck is with the few bolt ons i have on now. Ford needs to step up there game.

So, pretty much it is a stock GT with a CAI and full exhaust...and maybe 3.73's... Whooptie Freakin-Dooo! Does this clown know how to launch a manually shifted tranny? 9.5 sounds slow for what he has...

they call that the 03 and 04 cobra......:D

but yeah, the 2V cars are pretty damn lazy until you toss a blower or nitrous on them, earlier 4v cars were very lame (sn95 years) but rev very nice!

too bad they are getting stolen left and right over here in miami..... seems like there are more foxbody notches with 03/04 transplants than the actual cobras around here.:mad:

not me, you couldn't give me a cobra, and if you did I'd sell it and put the money down on a z06

vettes are 6 speed without a s/c and walk em all day long! I like the way the cobra sounds, but I think ford could do a little better with their performance, like making it 380 h/p all motor and then bolt on a s/c.

vettes carry a hefty price tag with there name and only have two seats... regardless of the facts the new protocalled mustangs need to step it up cause Dodge and Chevy are running them off the road.
