I have never seen a stock mustang gt running 13s, in fact I have never lost to a stock or even mildly modded mustang gt with my 14.3 second civic from roll or from a stop. yeah Im sure they're out there but I have personally never seen them.

another thing, Im not defending the turbos2k guy because I think he's a fag, and has a very low self esteem and builds a hot car to make friends. but about his time, I think in this case and every case trap speed should be presented when posting 1/4 mile times, with that you can generally determine the potential of the car if it had a good launch off the line.
I have seen a car run low low 14's at X mph, and chop a complete second off with good tires at same mph trap speed.

You've never seen a stock GT run into the 13s? Then you obviously havent looked.

It helps if you go to the dragstrip. I have seen several stock GT's run 13's. I am on over 5 different mustang sites and see them there all the time. Just because your neck of the woods doesnt have them, doesn't mean the mainstream doesn't.

cliff notes for the Nova (weez are the baddest str33t rAc3rs evAr)

modded SRT-4 >>>> modded s2k

if 400HP is the best that can be done I feel sorry for owners who mod em. Now they are nice cars for what they are.
On a side note:
my 440ci > your TT

What are you trying to say? you wanna run my TT? ::

I think myself and many others would have a lot more respect if he was slightly more humble instead of trying to think he's better than everyone becuase of a car. In my eyes, having a turbo S2K isn't an excuse to be a cocky fucker, sorry. But that's just me.

Now I agree... when your less cocky you do seem to get more respect and more people like you. Good point.

Yes but he runs 11.9 with 2800 pounds. He should be ALOT faster. That's why many are not impressed. You can take a LS1 and with more weight and less mods and hp still ran faster.

Who runs 11.9?

Shaun "BLACKTURBOS2K" I dont belive has ever ran a 11.9 yet. the only person with a Turbo S2k I KNOW of that ran a 11.9 was the owner of inline pro a guy named Jon and he let off towards the end and trapped at 112 mph Shaun's black turbo s2k trapped at like 118 one time and i think 122 the next. So the speeds are more then enough to run mid to low 11's. But running on kumo ecsta tires dosent help a s2k to much and O yea the shitty axles and rear ends they run.
