What about the cobra an SRT8 video? What cobra's run in the 1/4mile? The SRT8's are not easy cars to beat IMO. And I know because my dad owns one.

well, an inexperienced driver finds it hard to hit 12's in even a 03-04 cobra(i've seen this at the track), a friend of mine's best at the track(first time there) was a 13.3,

that IRS gives even experienced drivers fits i hear, im yet to see a bone stock one go 12's, but i have only seen a couple, i know the best for a stock one is 12.7, most good drivers hit 12.9's in them

low 13's eh? well hell, i think ol' Joe off the street can run

13.2(http://www.dragtimes.com/Ford-Mustang-Timeslip-5286.html)

13.3(http://www.dragtimes.com/Ford-Mustang-Timeslip-5129.html)

13.4(http://www.mustangforums.com/showProfile.asp?memid=44457) -fellow member here-

in a new stang. . . sounds like a drivers race to me

pleeezzz,

That is damn near best those cars can do and you think some normal Joe Bob is gonna run them times . . .

what are you smokin'? It would take a damn good driver, someone that knows about drag racing(few and far between) that could run them damn near their potential . . . automatic or not . . .

a damn good driver with mustang GT vs a damn good driver with srt-8 = srt- will definetely take stang GT.

when u said joe to me l understood a regular driver. ( l dont even know who joe is)

a damn good driver with srt-8 runs 12.8 best!

as a result:

-new stang GTs runs avarage hig - mid 13s
with a very very good driver low 13s

-srt-8 with a avarage driver, runs low 13s
with a damn good driver high 12s

= srt-8 is faster than new stang GT... period!

You're funny Doodad. First you beat a dead horse for multiple pages in more than one thread, then you threaten me over the internet. I like you. Once again I will say from personal experience, yes, the SRT8 is a very small tad faster than a new GT. Definitely not murder like you say.

Why don't you buy one, then go to their forum and stir up things with the GT vs SRT8 argument? Then instead of saying how many tenths of a second faster the SRT8 is, you could tell them how if you saved 20 grand, then sank it into your Mustang, you would rip three new assholes in any SRT8 for the same price.

I wish I was a mod. I would make the two final posts in an argument, the point and counter-point, the only ones people would see. No more multiple pages of GT, SRT8, me, you, 13.2, 13.4, faster, ME, I, blah, I need a wahmbulance, call 9-1-wah. Just some good ole fashioned beatings. There needs to be a special button a mod or admin could push to give out beatings. I would probably get several myself. Oh I could write a novel on the inner workings of a forum and the intellects, or lack there of, who reside within.

Regardless, Mr. Doodad, you have a pleasant evening. I'll do you one better actually. Since earlier in this thread, you dismissed my posts and told me how I didn't know what I was talking about and SRT8's don't have a badge on the trunk, in which my reply was a huge picture of one with a badge on its trunk, if and when I win the lottery, I will buy you 7, yes 7, SRT8 Chargers. A different color for every day of the week and I will have them custom made with NO SRT8 badge anywhere. I will also have a special device created where if any year or model Mustang GT got within 5 miles, it would automatically drop 150 horespower from the engine, meaning that your SRT8's would always "murder" the comptetion.

Now maybe we can act like more coherent mature adults and put the bickering aside. Yes, within 5 years I will have my beating button created, then we will see...

first: how can you say that l threaten you over the internet??? guys check my post out an show me how l threaten this guy

second: about srt-8 badge, l said what people said to me and l didnt say they definetely do not have.. and after your post l replied and said that l was wrong about it.. but looks like you didnt read that.. anyway.. the point is not they are 20 grand more or l can put that money on the stang and make monster.. the point is they are faster but on this thread it is drivers race.. and when rate the cars DRIVERS RACE that means those 2 cars are running the same or very close times.. with pro drivers, stang can run low 13s and srt-8 can run.

also what is this thing, << then why did you buy stang?? or go and buy srt-8, blah blah?? >> l own a new stang Gt and just cuz l own this thing should l say yeah we are faster than anything? THE TRUTH IS TRUTH. l dont care what car l have, if any one is faster than me and if someone says no they are not, l will not shut up.. even if srt-8s would be the same price as new stang GT l would still go with new stang cuz l love these cars.

l am saying again to people who says that srt-8 and new stang GT s are drivers race, show me the proof, convince me and l will respect you.. l am not like you.. l will accept the TURTH! but as l said, the truth is what l am saying.. they are not drivers race. ok they will not murder us but they will def. beat us!

What this website could really use is an ignore/mute feature. Seriously, pompoous, knowitall, abrasive, point belaboring trolls are just best left under the rug to fester and die on their own. It's a website feature for forums that's long over due.

I raced one the other day and I pulled pretty decently. All i have for mods is intake/tune, 4.10s and an axle back. We went twice and i pulled on him both times. once from like 60 and the other at 40. I was very surprised in the outcome considering they have 425 crank hp out of the box. He did have one more passenger then me that i could see and it was hot so he may have had the ac on but still he should have turned that off. What are those things running at the track? For $46k or w/e they go for that is not a car id be buying after that poor performance. Thats alot of money you could be putting into a GT.



i SMELL BS..... I raced one in the 1/4 He ran 12.92 @ 106 as i recall........I did manage to get by him barely, 11.17@136.21 though

Here is what I am saying doodad . . . and you should not be able to argue with this since you do not have/driven an SRT8 . . . you ready? . . .

It is by far easier to drive a new stang to its potential than it is an SRT8 . . . that means that average Joe can get closer to the mid 13's that a stang can run than a low 13 that a SRT8 can run.

SRT8's are all auto's, yet some ppl manage to run 14 sec in them. . . you know why? . . . traction and takeoff

therefore making it a drivers race . . . (from a stop)

You cannot argue with that . . .

Yes, I agree. You have not been in this discussion and you come in to say how awesome you are and how others should be condemed. I obtained my original goal with my last couple of posts. What was that you ask? Well, I shall drop it down a notch and explain real fast.

This is in no way bad, read and it will be good for all. Doodad knows that SRT8's are a little faster, but he claimed they murdered Mustang GT's, the new ones anyways. Me and BlackGt had a different view. i explained my story of my personal driving experience against one at full throttle, in two threads actually. At the time Doodad said I was wrong and that SRT8's did not have a badge. I posted a picture which showed they do. that was taken care of. Him and Black GT continued their battle.

Everything being said and done, me, Doodad, and BlackGT were all trying to say the same thing, just not in the same words. Just go back and take a look in this thread, read it all. With mine and Doodads and even Black GT's last posts, we all seem to see eye to eye now. We all may not agree EXACTLY, but I think our understanding is mutual.

As far as trolls, like I said, I was in the middle of the fire, and my posts got us to kind of see things together. I have no bad feelings at all against Doodad, I actually like the fact he will speak his mind no matter whether he is right or wrong, then we can disuss. Isn't that the point of a froum anyways?

A troll however, is someone that just appears out of nowhere and posts:

For you have not been in the discussion and have no reason to bash anyone.

I am happy to have talked to Doodad and BlackGT and wish to do so more often as I am new to my Mustang as I bought it at the beginning of June brand new. I have alot to learn and I'm sure they can help me. I just refuse to get help from self righteous, holier than thou, I'm better than you biggots as yourslef lukoi66.

Now I do hope that you jumped the gun and now with reading this thread realise who is the real troll. With all that being said, I hope we can get along and not have any problems likoi66, yes?

Thank you all and have a good day. I am going to work now, goodbye.

actually Red, I did read all of it. Check your PM's for further explaination bc I'm thinking you missed the point of my post and more importantly who it refers to.

there's a way to express an opinion during an argument and a way not to. Yes people can choose to ignore a thread in order to avoid someone, per Doodad's advice but this is a community site where people shouldn't be bullied out by constant grandstanding and argumentative behavior. So, sorry if you feel I was trollish. I don't think it was nearly so trollish a comment as some on this thread and it's a valid point. An ignore feature is a great feature to have on a forum site :)

As for having a reason to bash someone....the above while harsh wasn't a bash. It was a simple statement of opinion.
