"because a '93 era mustang would put a retarded beating on a probe." - A retarded beating? Not quite. A stock 91 GT like the one my buddy drove in 93 that I raced was NOT a 14 sec. car. A stock LX notchback 5-speed car would get times in the 14.5 sec. range, but not a stock GT. By the way, in 93 the HP ratings actually dropped for the Mustang.

My buddy that I raced in the 91 Mustang GT was a pretty crappy driver, and never really raced too many people. Me on the other hand by 1993 had owned, and street raced 3 different 13-12sec. Mustangs. I was a pretty good driver by then so it was pretty easy for me to kick his ass out of the hole in my PGT.




having "owned and raced" three mustangs apparently doesn't mean much. i had a stock 91 notch 5 speed than i got into the high 13's, and i seriously doubt that the extra 300 lbs of GT weight would add nearly two seconds to its times. like i said, it was either an automatic convertable (which still should beat a stock probe, but you never know) or the guy driving it was an absolute dolt.


02 Mustang GT... Tuned by Nelsons. Low 12's, anyone? .....______ ___|______\_____ |/-\_________/-\_| .\_/...............\_/
