average times are 14 flat to 14.3, stock... meaning this guy here with an 02 GT will need an absolute PERFECT launch to pull any on him.

It's just too ****ing close to call.

the C&D drovers saw mid 13s out of them.... but then again, they are professionals. good to know most of em arent running to their potential

Could this also be because of the difficulty in launching them well

They are AWD, aka the easiest cars ever to launch.

Yeah but not many people use the "5k clutch dump" method

I think I will be "ThatGuy"....
I have a 99 VR4..bone stock down to the paper filter I ran a 13.4 @ 101..
After Changing the exhaust, downpipe, intake(K&N), and setting the boost to 15lbs I was able to squeek out a 12.8 @106 (my 60ft was a 1.71 though)
Yes, they are fat, heavy cows, but they can be fast...Getting into the mid 12's is extremely easy and cheep.

Last time I raced a mustang was an 04 GT with full exhaust, intake and chip..From stop, roll, barely roll, I won...not even close but I don't have stock turbos or fuel anymore either lol....

Unless he does a 5000 rpm clutch dump the AWD is not going to help him much. Most people with AWD are too scared to really launch thier cars. You should win pretty easy.

+1, I bet he bogs it down when he races you, it takes a little time to learn to slip the clutch with awd.

this should be a good race if he is a somewhat decent driver. those vr-4's do crank from a dig thoe so watch out and good luck.

Also I would not be surprised if he doesn't even get one at all. it is extremely hard to find a cheap vr-4 that doesn't have a ton of stuff wrong with it. I know from experience.
