Re: Richmond sat. nite
Wow...this is all a lot to swallow.
1) I think my 14.0's (that was in the dead of summer I was doing that by the way) on the stock tires are a pretty good representation of what the 99 - 04 GT's will do stock. Most guys around here won't come close to that though. Most of the GT's I see around here are running mid 14's stock. I've got quite a bit of seat time at the track, which I think really helped me get the quicker times out of the car.
2) If a built n/a 5.0 Mustang isn't at least running mid 12's, either someone didn't build it right or someone can't drive. A lot of guys are running mid 11's @ 115+ in daily driven 5.0's with the latest round of heads/cams on the market. Jimmy's coupe is a nice example of what a well thought-out combination can do in those cars.
3) I think a lot of this isn't so much as hatred towards one another's brands, but more ignorance (I say this in a positive manner) towards the other brands. In other words...you guys don't know much about other brands. Nothing wrong with that, but it helps to keep an open mind and try to learn from one another rather than blindly bash the other's preference.
/off my soap box

Now, stop preaching because WE KNOW what mustangs can do. We know they can be fast and a lot are slow (like yours). Now, what you need to do, is some research before you start babbling off at the mouth again. Your what MAYBE 16? You're ignorance proceeds you.
