The other day I beat a 2005-2006 V-6 Mustang Auto, doing 90 he was still just sitting about half a car from my rear bumber and he couldn't gain on me, the only reason why he passed me is because my radar detector started to chirp...not risking a ticket for doing 90 in a 45 I have I/H/E also

 

it was not the v8. i drove one. pulls like a mo fo (still a ford).

btw, what year was it? here are the 06 numbers:
4.0L SOHC 12V V6 210 hp @ 5250
4.6L OHV 24V V8 300 hp @ 5750
Torque:
240 @ 3500
320 @ 4500

Exhaust:
Single, Stainless Steel
Dual, Stainless Steel
you sure it wasn't an 80s gt? they were at about 178 hp.
j/k

 

this is not relevant...

but im renting a SHELBY GT-H mustang from hertz..

imma drift that shiot like crazy

 

if it had 1 exhaust pipe....v6.....2 v8. i know what to look for

 

coulda been an auto-shift too, or possibly an engine thats not quite "up to par"

 

i call a friendly "bs". there is no way in hell they are gonna let you loose with that rental. like the days of yore, the only way to drive one is to rent one from hertz, but they remember the seventies when folk just never came back and i "guarantee" they are gonna think you're gonna steal it.
kidding

 

If it was a GT, you wouldn't have had a chance.

Trust me. My 5-speed 5.0 with 155,000 Miles would easily kill a tC, and the 4.6s have more power.

You probably had a V6.

 

err followed you home.. thats not good. If I saw anyone ever follow me home I'd lose em or something.. I'd watch my car for the next couple days dood.

 

Here ya go, if you seriously thought he was BS'ing you...LoL

 

you misunderstood... i've been following this car as a rental. ford did this a few decades back (a rental folk can't own). people just kept them and paid the fees.

my point was blackonblacktc probably would do that as well. they aren't gonna give him one

 

DUDE.. when they rented these back in the 60's it was different than now.

its about 149 dollars a day to rent these, trust me bro, i have done my research. they cannot deny the rental.. my dad is gonna rent it anyways.. its my b-day gift (hahaahha) but he is 55 years old, with no tickets, and no accidents, and good credit.. they WILL let him rent it.

 

cool. it will be a blast. shoot videos. i'm goofing, that car will be a fun night out. (utube hero stuff) btw, you have drifted a car with that power? gonna be fun as fun can be.

 

haahh *** ya. i cant wait, this will be my first RWD car i have ever drove(except for pick ups).. this is gonna be awesome..

i will be drifiting, donuts, burnouts, you name it.. imma do it

only thing is, when i come in with bald tires, they will get VERY mad

 

Ford Racing Performance Group is supplying its popular Power Pack (FR1) to add a genuine 25-horsepower Ford performance kick to the 300-horse Mustang GT 4.6L V-8/Five-speed automatic transmission powertrain and an increase of 10 lb.-ft. of torque. The package includes Ford Racing’s 90mm Cold Air kit, the Muffler Kit, a new X-pipe similar to the one used on the new Ford Shelby GT500 Mustang, a performance calibration and a cat-back performance exhaust for that throaty sound that will make this car unmistakably a Shelby Mustang GT-H.

btw, this car is carroll shelby, and he is not ford. check the link.
also, quite frankly the tC vs. whatever belongs in a different forum, so i'm gonna move it there.

 

ya i know hte specs.. i really wish it would look like any other mustang tho, so people dont know its rented

i also wish it wasnt auto.. but its all good

 

he might suck at driving, but he might be better at grammar than you.....and no a win is NOT a win...if i race a kid with cerebral paulsy (sp) in a 100m dash, im going to win, but i will actually lose.

 

where did you hear that from..

a win is always a win.. shoot if he wants to race and he has autism.. imma race him









im just kidding... your right

 

This thread sucks. And if I was in the mustang, I would have followed you home too for the tailgate manuver you pulled.

He probably slowed down, because you were riding his a$$ which is what most people do when they get buttmunchers on their a$$.

 

If he slowed down to 20 as you were go'n around already excellerate'n it sounds like ya just caught him off guard. That and he prolly was under estimate'n how quick an tC is. I beat out a guy in an late 80s 5.0 'stang. Eventho the 0-60 times for my Celie and his Mustang are closer than your tC and a new 'stang, it was pretty apearent that I caught him off guard. 'Stang owners are an over confident lot. Win or loose, its fun to teach v8 domestic's some respect once an awhile. :D

 

I will say this, I test drove a 06 Roush Stage 1 (bodykit, no power mods) manual convertible GT and that car was slow as *****. Even back when it was stock my WRX probably would have raped that thing. I don't know how much heavier than the normal GT the verts are but that car was weak.

If the older verts were that different in performance than it might have been possible to beat one in a tC. Was it a convertible?
