The new 500 may not have AWD, but I am willing to bet it will have the A10. Time will tell.

I think the 18 GT will also need a converter to see 10's, the mph is there for sure but the 60' and the 1/8 mile times seen so far need improvement.
Not saying it can't happen, just needs that stall to get in the rev range quicker imo.

I honestly don't know what the hype is, great a hero driver with unknown mods, I guess he is claiming "stock drivertrain and tune" with drag pack, on a prep track under ideal conditions runs .5 to 1 second faster than bone stock off showroom floor. Really, that has been true for 50 years.
All I really need to know is that 99.999% of the people 100% of the time can't do that on stock rubber with 100% OEM equipment including the ecu program. When push comes to shove the broader torque range engine is going to win in the most general terms, read that as Joe Average, on DD rubber, at the average street fight. Note the topic of the original post (stock on stock tires). What does a BONE stock Mustang do, and since we can't depend on "claimed stock", by default that means a magazine test, is the Mustang 18 faster than the 17s? Seems to be, if the exactly the right combination is ordered and in an auto. Once the conversation starts going to "stock" with drag pack, I, for one think the argument rapidly devolves into how many angels can actually dance on a head of a pin. I know the answer is 36. Since there is no official santioning body that will verify stock but drag pack, either the car is 100% stock other than air in the tires or it ain't. If it ain't well the limit is how much cubic bucks one has to inject. Great if a few proper optioned 18 auto Mustangs are surprisingly fast, give the top list of mods (known and unknown). Joe Average in a "normal" 18 GT ain't any faster and probably slower than a bone stock SS. Does the 2018 Mustang seem to go faster than a "stock" 2017 with the above conditions, yep would seem so amen. Is there any way to prove that said Mustang is 100% stock? Nope, should I care? Nope. Note: Read my sig file.

At least the claim is "no converter. My LS1 could do a 13.2 with free mods and stock GSC. With a converter, it could do 12.8 on a prep track under good conditions. In any track side bench racing did I ever mention the car had a converter? Please unless the is an unbias official, with post race inspection and / strip down, any claim to what is stock and what is not is completely meaningless. There are 2018 Mustang GT with a MINIMUM of a drag pack under ideal conditions that can go 11.2, I'm completely fine with that, any other claim is suspect. Even insisting it is true is suspect. Wow am I supposed to be surprised that people bring more to the drag strip than claimed? Did I fall off the apple cart yesterday?

My bet is A10 trans, 5.2 motor, 2.65 TVS and pushing more that 707 CHP. No to AWD.

Why are people talking about the 13/14 GT500 going around a track? It was purpose built to go 200 mph and rape the competition at the time in 0-60, quarter mile and hp ...which it did. The ZL1 of that gen was destroyed by that car.
The next GT500 may also target straight line and overall power over the track, vice versa or both, we have to wait and see. |

Because the car had thousands of dollars in options that made it a capable performer in the hands of madmen at a track.
Was it supposed to set records? No. Was it heavy and probably better to use a Boss 302? Yes. Would it have benefitted from a brake fluid swap as the owners manual suggested? Yes. Did anyone expect it to seriously compete on a track with newer generation vehicles despite a SRA and modest suspension packagae? I would assume not. People neednto get a grip.

This run tho. Who is the person doing it? Individual owner? Shop? Tuner? Just curious. Because it seems that all the good runs are either with shops/tuners etc or someone who is noteworthy. I would like to see runs from people who are more like normal Joes like myself and some of the guys here. I feel that anyone can duplicate or beat my run in my ZL1 especially in better weather. But we're not going to see similar results in the GT. The results will vary wildly as they already have. Thanks for posting this BTW. Your thoughts? |
