2005 GTO

  

04BlackVenom -> 2005 GTO (2/24/2006 8:06:06 PM)

A guy at work just purchase a 2005 Goat. He wants to race Monday when we get back to work. What do you think my chances are? His is completely stock but man does it sound mean.

A 2005 GTO vs your 04 cobra?

Dont screw up the launch or miss a shift and its in the bag. Those things have some traction issues, some bad wheelhop, and more weight. They are very low 13's with a good experienced driver in it and like mid 13's and up with someone not used to those issues. I saw one at the track last year that couldnt break a 14.2... guy just could NOT launch. 3+ second 60' times are a killer [:D]

98KINGCOBRA -> RE: 2005 GTO (2/27/2006 7:38:05 AM)

I HAVE GOT DOWN ON A COUPLE GOATS THEY HAVE REALLY BAD WHEEL HOP. OFF THE LIGHT I WAS GRABIN A FULL CAR LENGTH BUT IM NOT SUPERCHARGED SO HE PULLED ME IN THRID BUT IN THE 04 COBRA I GOT MY PAY CHECK ON THE COBRA. IS IT A 6.0 OR 5.7 GOAT

Black04COBRA -> RE: 2005 GTO (2/27/2006 12:51:48 PM)

CAPS LOCK OFF!!!!!!!!!

Damn. You should have him easy if you can drive a stick, you can beat him.

CobraSnake -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/1/2006 1:04:02 PM)

the 05's are 6.0 and the 04's are 5.7

757GT -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/1/2006 3:07:49 PM)

You will win. Is he auto or manual? The GTO usually dyno around 340 with a manual and 330 with the auto. 03/04 Cobras dyno at least 360 usually a little more. You have more wheel hp and less weight plus the are hard to launch. My buddy has a 05 GTO M6 and he put down 340 whp. He ran 13.4@106. He and I have raced from a stop and when he was stock I won by 1.5 cars from 0-95 and I only run 13.3.

Dan04COBRA -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/6/2006 1:14:55 PM)

They actually put down better numbers than that 757. They typically put down around 350 for the auto and around 360 for the M6.

O4 cobra? You should kill him, just get a good launch.

TTSvtCobra17 -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/7/2006 8:44:56 PM)

if you have a 04 cobra you should definatly walk all over him.

04BlackVenom -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/12/2006 11:45:06 AM)

I actually have a convertible. Do you think that will make a difference?

pastor_ice43 -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/15/2006 11:09:36 PM)

the '05 goat has 400 rwhp to the wheel

David_K -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/16/2006 7:18:45 PM)

GTO are dog ****. very very slow. if you want to see what i mean go drive a GTO then go drive a C6 vette

and no it does not have 400 to the wheels more like 340 tops.

pastor_ice43 -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/16/2006 10:21:48 PM)

The one i drove was fast as hell. And a gto has the same engine as a Vette C6.....the only vet that has a more powerful engine is the zo6

David_K -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/17/2006 12:22:47 PM)

the GTO weights in at 3725 lbs the vette weights 3179lbs. quite the differenece. and the record hp number for a stock c6 vette putting to the ground is 354 hp. mine put 341 stock

Mustangeater -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/21/2006 4:54:50 PM)

First off the 6.0 GTO are 400hp and 400ft lbs torque. I have smoked about 3 Cobras and my GTO is stock and I have only had it 2 months. I have not had any wheel bouncing on launch. So good luck trying to keep up with the goat and make sure your friends are'nt around. It will be embarassing for you.

Hisss04Cobra -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/21/2006 5:03:05 PM)

You have not smoked any 03/04 cobras, unless they were parked somewhere...

Mustangeater -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/21/2006 5:31:36 PM)

You mustang guys are funny. This is where you all go after you guys get beat, to talk smack but can never proof it. Check out this website. I am not saying that Mustangs are bad cars, but there is no way you guys are spanking 05 GTO's. I know because I have owned a Mustang Cobra and that is why I am driving a Goat today. Check out this video. Copy and paste.

04BlackVenom -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/21/2006 8:06:34 PM)

First of all don't ever come on to a mustang website with your Grand Am lookalike talkin smack. Second of all don't post a video of a Saleen Mustang when we are talking Cobras. Especially since a stock Saleen cannot beat a stock 03/04 Cobra. Thirdly the guy with the GTO got his a** handed to him by my Cobra. So go get in your Grand Am from Australia and go over to your GM Forum. And one more thing if the GTO is so badass then why can't they sell any of them and why did they stop making them. I guess we'll have to just wait for the supposed new Camaro that will never come.


Oh yeah by the way put that in your pipe and smoke it bitch!

wangdoodle1740 -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/22/2006 8:13:13 AM)

I hate to knock you off your horse there "Mustangeater", buy you aren't smokin any 03/04 cobras while you are stock. Less power to the wheels, more weight... and thats stock for stock. And never getting any wheel hop when launching, come on!

CobraSnake -> RE: 2005 GTO (3/22/2006 9:15:55 AM)

yeah like the other guy said don't come on a mustang forums talking crap about how you beat cobras then you show us a video of a 2000 Saleen probably not a supercharged model, but i don't know for sure. Then you say you have no wheel hop and your launching at 4000rpms, i heard you launch it in the video and your wife was like whoa and you said sorry so i bet you had some wheel hop there. Seriously though your not beating 03-04 cobras all day long that have good drivers in them. Maybe when you were a brand new car with brand new tires and the cobra's tires are completely bald, it may be close.
