'04 SRT-4 V.S. '96 Mustang GT

[xample24]

well this guy i know had been talkin a lot of trash sayin that NO fwd 4cyl could beat his V8 gt ( he doesnt know a lot about cars) and he finally brought his car to another friends of mines house where i had my srt and he challenged me to a raced approx. a 1/4 street race from a dead stop. So we lined up and (idk how many people have driven a modded srt but it bein fwd it has a lot of torque steer and spins a lot unless u hit it perfectly) both got equal jumps off the line, we both spun but he hooked up faster than me and was about a 1/2 car ahead before i hooked up, when i hit second i started pulling hard on him then third i completely left him. i didnt think much of it because he didnt have anything done to it other than an exhaust and a chip or so he claims. but that finally put an end to the trash talk and now everytime he see's me he asks about my car.. cuz i just he thinks its extremely fast or sumn. haha

My car: '04 st. 2 srt4 @ 17 psi to redline

no big deal bro. the SRT-4 eats mustang GTs for breakfast. Thats its natural prey.

good kill

I dunno about the new mustang gt musashi, thats a pretty close battle

I've beaten an SRT-4 and I doubt I would beat a Mustang GT by much more...so I doubt they "eat them for breakfast" - rather, they "beat" them. What exactly is done to your SRT-4? Good kill.

I didnt mean the new ones bro, the ones up to 2004 are its natural prey. (excluding driver tallent of course)

Nice kill. I dont mind seeing a mopar whoop a ford any day. Keep it up.

[209 SRT]

nice kill dude but you have a s2 car so Im not suprised with the results.....if he had some bolt ons it would have been a better match.....stock for stock the skittles gets the gts majority of the time but with a good driver its a drivers race........as for the retro gts those things are fast.........they usually take skittles by fourth gear on a roll stock for stock.......but from digs most gts poop on us.........then a couple of gears later we poop on them.....hehe

96-98 gt = teh suck

[209 SRT]

oh I just notice you raced a 96'' gt............yeah dude you could have handed it to him stock.........now the 99-2004 are closer to us and the 05s are faster then us...........

The 99+ GT's are good for high 13's stock and a SRT-4 is probably good for like a low 14. Ive seen a automatice 98 GT which is faster i think than the 96s run a mid 15 second pass.

nice kill, but that was to be expected. My friend had a 98GT and after many many runs, I think he managed a 14.9 or 15 flat...not exactly impressive for a 4.6L 8 cylinder...

idk about that, the 99-04's can be decent, some years a lil better than others. I guess if you're talking stock than the SRT would get it but if the mustang had any kinda mods goin on it would give the srt a good run... bow down to the 05 GT's haha can;t wait to see a cobra...

mostly the 99+ will get low 14's. Good srt-4 can get high 13's

[VR43000GT]

I keep seein more and more good things written about the srt-4. What does one of those things cost?

[Musashi3000GT]

^ if you hurry you can still find some new ones (2005 was the last production year) for 21K. used i ve seen from 8K to 21K. I have my eye on a few 16-17K round here but im holding out till May.
