Thread: My first race in the gtp.

So, today I stopped by an old friends house as I saw that he had a 96-98 gt. We talked for a few minutes and headed out for a little action. Anyways, The gt is an auto with a shift kit. He has a plenum, fender intake, and full exhaust. My gtp is stock other than an open cone filter. We ran from a dig and I put 3 cars on him quick. But by 70mph I could see that he was reeling me in. I lifted at around 85mph. He jumped early on the first race, but I still had him on the 2nd and third race. Were taking them to gateway and well have a video and slips.

I just wanted to share the results. (sorry for no video)

Nothing like a good friendly race.

Lol sh1tstangs ..those cars aren't anything to worry about.

You are talking about a mustang gt? You just said gt and there are tons of gt's out there.

stang gt? or gp gt?

My guess would be Mustabg GT, he said he was reeling in at high speed.

sounds like a mustang due to mods.
nice kill!

Mustang gt

And thanks. I was pleased with her. I think the mustang was shocked to see we walking away hard thru first

and he said 96-99 gt those are 2 different gens of gp's, must be a rustang

That gen of mustang though was 94-98

It was 1996-98,
94-95 have the 5.0

Similar look

I didn't know it had the 4.6 in it.

well considering i work in a mustang shop id have to say in my opinion that, that body style mustang is the worst one out besides the 74+ mustang 2's they were just stupid

ya they aare heavy, been waiting to find that style of stang in my lil n/a lol,only stang id probably be able to keepup/beat.
but id race a 99-04 gt stang just to see where i stand againstem lol

I have no problem with most 99-04 gt's and v6s. 05+ v6 aren't hard either.

ya i already took out the 05+ 4.0l v6. without the hv3.
them new 3.7 v6 stangs would put a hurtin on us though.

For sure lol

I agree, Non PI 4.6s are slow, but he has weight reduction. He weighted in with the car at 3450lbs.
