325ic vs 5l stang..?

[freakgeek]

I race some on Mullholland Drive all of the time, I usually park at the end, get out my fold up chair and sit and wait for them to finally catch up. So, don't bother with a 1/4 mile when you can just embarass the crap out of them over about 12 miles.

[fastasleep]

I agree: too many variables.

(I've owned a '88 5.0 ) If I drove both cars, the Mustang would win.

"PROPAGANDA?" Sorry Gomer. Didn't mean to confuse you with reality. I just must have missed all those Pro Street e36's at the Nationals......Just a thought. Maybe they would go faster if the Hillbilies didn't put Confederate flags on them?

[328 is man]

I've only owned a 328is but I assume that would be faster than a 325 vert. My old 5.0 was faster in a straight line than my 328 (both stock) but that's the only place the mustang would win. Corners, breaking or anything else the 328 would clean up

[328 is man]

was ur 328 auto? ive owned every stock 5.0 i ever raced in my 328

[freakgeek]

I win every race...........if they pull away, I shoot their rear tires with a shotgun.

[325i e36]

what about a 325i vs. 6 cylinder mustang??

I kill all of the V6 mustangs I've run up against so far, even with my auto.

[325i e36]

are they close races at all??
i would have fiqure the 4.0 mustang would be close?

[freakgeek]

They stay up with me until I hit about 3K rpm, then my cars pulls away like I have a V8. Some mods, usually exhaust and CAI have a little more staying power, but always pull away. I not raced one that has a turbo, pretty sure THAT would stomp my ass good.

are you sure your not racing V6's? The cars weigh about the same and my '87 5.0 came with 25 more horsepower and almost 100 lb.ft more torque than my 96 328. With the same driver a 328 won't have a chance.

lmao i call bs 5.0s are mid 14 sec cars and with all of those mods he would be running 12s
They can break low 14s high 13s with a good driver and nice tires.

There's no way that any 5.0 stang will ever run 12's with some basic bolt ons. Maybe after a heads/cam package.

[rat]

Dude everyone knows 5.0s or dsms are the easiest cars to get to go fast cheap they respond really well to bolt ons. high 12s are possible.

[328 is man]

positive, they were my friends cars. weight and gear r on the 328s side. those stangs werent geared for shit in the late 80s to 95

[rat]

lmao dude you can talk all the crap you want about mustangs, i agree with you most of them are crap(sn95, s197, v6 new edges) But the 5.0s and cobra Termi arent.
ask anybody that does a little bit of Drag racing at the strip im sure youll be suprised by your answer.

[bmxludwig]

If I wanted a drag car I would probably get a 5.0. Cheap, plentiful, and for the most part pretty reliable.

The ls1 camaros, t/a and formulas are dropping in prices high 13s in stock trim. Here in the midwest the fox body mustangs are starting to become a little rare- at least in decent "buildable" condition. Most I've seen have bad/rusted strut towers and beat torque boxes.

When the Fox bodies were newish (early 90s) some racers where able to dip into the 12s albiet 12.9s They ran a short belt, 410s, removed front sways, iced intake and so forth. That was with the right condtions too.

On a 5 spd fox, with lowermiles, you could easily dip into the 13s with just a k&n and a set of 373s.

Money can make anything fast..or handle a corner...but if these cars a pretty much stock:
You could spike his rockstar energy drink before the race..than you might win.
