@HideTheAsian: If you could read the description! This is at 5800 feet elevation. Even at this altitude I ran a best time of 14.0.

WOOOOO oh ya go Adam. You whipped his @$#. Man I can't wait to get out there and do it myself.

That mustang was pretty slow. I did race a 2001 camaro ss twice and beat it both times. I was preety suprised. The first time i raced him i got a crappy start but ran him down and passed him by the end of the track.

You guys are missing a very important reason why the times might be slower.....

Yes elevation really does make a big difference...

@SickG6 dude, Stock LGT is still faster then Bolt-On 5.0

[gtdrummerdude]

@SickG6 Wow that's really good. Here in Phoenix, AZ, stock '99 - '04 GT 5 speeds with decent drivers manage mid 14s. How you got 13.5 on street tires is beyond me but good job lol.

@gtdrummerdude I ran 13.5 with a stock 01 Bullitt Mustang with no midpipe and flowmaster catback on bald street tires.  If I can find my timeslip, I'll post it online and send you the link. So you're right, it's not necessarily the cars. It's usually driver error.

[gtdrummerdude]

@SickG6 You're comparing a stock '83 or '84 car with a horrible driver to a 2008 car.... The fact is, late 1980s/early 1990s Mustangs with minor bolt-ons will do over 100 mph in the 1/4. A friend of mine has a 1988 GT 5.0 5 speed with cylinder heads and intake manifold from a late 1990s Ford Explorer 5.0 (stock production Ford heads), shorty headers, exhaust, and 3.73 gears and he was running 13.90s @ 102 mph on all-season tires and 13.40s on slicks.

4 wheel drive ftw

Lol where was the Mustang. 5 litre engine and runs like 1.6 litre.

0-60 mph in a legacy about 5 1/2 secs.

0-60 mph in a Mustang = eventually. Lol

Let's not forget traction here. 500 horses do you no good if you sit there smoking you tires off, meanwhile the 250hp Subaru is halfway down the track.
