2011 V6 Mustang vs. Dodge Challenger RT ~ 7-18-10

Raced my brand new 2011 Mustang V6 against a Dodge Challenger RT at Dorchester Dragway. Pulled a 9.3 @ 79mph. Beat the Challenger by 6 tenths of a second according to the time slip.

Also, good win, but the Challenger is a V6 as well. Those rims are V6 option wheels, not available on the RT or SRT, additionally the V6 has a different rear valence than the RT which is difficult to see hear (in all honesty), but visible.

@jetpilot222 Well then the guy that owns it will be in for a rude awakening.... because even the guy racing him in the orange SRT-8 in another video has come by our local board and confirmed that it was a RT that got smoked.

[zacheryds]

were both of u stock?

[PoleKitten87]

@zacheryds The Mustang was. It was 3 days old with 250 miles on it in the video. I don't know about the Challenger, I didn't talk too much with them except to ask them to race.

That V6 just owned that HEMI lol

@PHILLY2727 I raced a modded R/T with my 2011 GT, he ran a 15 sec 1/4 with an auto. Had exhaust tune and CAI. Dodge failed this time around, the Challenger is just too heavy.

Dodge really needs to go back to the drawing board, they're cars are too damn heavy and their V8s are unbelievably weak. A 5.7L V8 should not produce less than 400 hp. I saw the dyno results from an 2011 RT classic recently and it developed 347 hp, that's a little more than a V6 should make. Dodge can do it if they wanted to, but looks seem to be more important to them.

@impala4544 i think you got it backwards....its shelby fault that it has horrible traction not ford. ford sends them mustangs shelby is a complete different company i love my mustangs but hate the fact the shelby doesnt improve on traction and handling and 0-60 times....hopefully the new shelby will be the greatest.....200mph

[thomasj1026]

im a mustang guy but damn sure doesnt shift like a v6......is it a manual?

[whiteboy535ful]

@acere23 ignore those haters they jsut mad cause theres a v6 that can smoke a v8 lol

[acere23]

why is everybody hating on the new mustang v6?good car good engine.look at the Buick grand national, is a turbo v6 and, its a hell of car... are you hating on that too?

[turbov6bryan2]

@braddfordy BS. Those GT500's are slow as hell, best ive seen one race at the track was a 12.4 at 120 Maybe in perfect weather and a great driver, but most gt500's are having trans issues. WOT box helps, but they just suck! 2013? bad mofo

My 2011 gt has ran best of a 12.0 118 on stock rubber! no nitrous and no blower or turbo

[brb0713]

Comon do you DA,s really think the was an RT with no exhaust note at all,, The Rims are in FACT V6 rims ,, Personally i think its gay to own a V6 but hey ,,

[brb0713]

@PoleKitten87 Well tell us ,,,,, was he shocked to learn its a v6

[FierceDominance]

i love that mustang!!!!
